Reinvestigating the Nightside Ionosphere of Mars With 8 Years of Mars Express and MAVEN Data
Abstract Tailward ion escape in the nightside magnetotail is one of the dominant paths of ion escape from Mars. The Martian nightside ionosphere can serve as a major reservoir for this escape channel, but its global distributions and dependence on the upstream solar wind have not been fully investigated due to observational limitations.

Atmospheric Distribution and Escape of Odd Nitrogen on Mars
The total nitrogen budget in the Martian upper atmosphere is significantly contributed by the presence of odd nitrogen, mainly in the form of NO and ground-state or excited-state N.

Modelling and Analysis of Substorm-Related Chorus Events
The substorm-related chorus event is a recognised VLF signature of the substorm expansion phase. Computer simulations support the contention that these events are generated by cyclotron resonance between whistler mode waves and energetic electrons which ...

Comparative Dynamics of Substorms and Sawtooth Events
Abstract We present a comprehensive comparative analysis of magnetospheric substorms and sawtooth events using multi‐point observations from ground‐based magnetometers, geostationary satellites, and the Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms mission.

Martian Proton Albedo as Signature of Near‐Surface Water
Abstract Understanding the Martian soil water budget is crucial not only for in situ resource utilization in future human missions to Mars, but also for reconstructing the geological and climatic history of the planet, as well as to assess the potential of ancient or even present microbial life.

The response of gas giant ionospheres to space environment forcing
At high spatial and spectral resolution, the 10-metre Keck and 3- metre NASA IRTF ground-based telescopes were used to observe Saturn and Jupiter, respectively.

Thermal Escape of Atomic Hydrogen on Mars: A Comprehensive View With a General Circulation Model
Abstract Mars loses water mainly through the photodissociation of water vapor, followed by the thermal escape of light hydrogen atoms. Observations have revealed large seasonal variations in hydrogen concentration in the upper thermosphere, peaking during southern summers and intensifying during dust storms.

Plasma Waves Can Gain Energy from Neutrals in Partially Ionized Plasmas
Partially ionized plasmas are widely present in astrophysical and space plasmas, and ion-neutral collisions have an important impact on the plasma dynamics, such as electrostatic wave propagation.

Importance of High Cadence Magnetometer Data for Investigating Geomagnetic Disturbances
Abstract Geomagnetic disturbances (GMDs) are rapid changes in the magnetic field of the Earth that may drive geomagnetically induced currents (GICs), known to cause damage to infrastructure such as power grids and pipelines. Globally, GIC measurements are often hard to obtain; therefore, GMDs are used as a proxy for GICs.

Theoretical studies of important processes in planetary and comet atmospheres. Renewel request
Current efforts have focused on the dissociative recombination (DR) of O2(+), a process of great importance in planetary atmospheres. This process is difficult to study experimentally because of the need to determine the dependence of the product ...
