Martian Crustal Magnetic Field Effects on the Ionospheric Main Peak
Planetary magnetic fields can affect ionospheric plasma transport and coupling with the solar wind. In contrast to the terrestrial global magnetic field, there are only weaker and sporadic crustal magnetic fields on Mars. Many studies have indicated that

Experimental Study of the Response of Sheared E × B Flow to Varying Ion–Neutral Collisions
Partially ionized plasma is a common occurrence in astrophysical and space environments. The emergence and development of plasma instabilities are significantly impacted by the inelastic collisions between the ions and neutrals in the partially ionized ...

Meteorological Tsunamis: From Local Hazard to Global Relevance
Abstract Research on meteorological tsunamis or meteotsunamis—long ocean waves in the tsunami frequency band generated by propagating atmospheric disturbances which resonantly enhance ocean waves—has grown significantly in recent decades. This expansion is due to progress in (a) ocean and atmospheric measurements, including advanced instrumentation ...

The Power of a Name: Toward a Unified Approach to Naming Space Weather Events
Abstract Our increasing reliance on technology vulnerable to space weather effects underscores the urgent need for effective public communication about these phenomena. While scientific research thrives on precise technical language, broader public engagement necessitates a more accessible and memorable approach.

Magnetic Flux Ropes at Mars and Their Impacts on Heavy Ion Escape
Abstract Flux ropes (FRs), ubiquitous helical magnetic structures in solar system plasmas, are important to energy and particle transport. At Mars, where global intrinsic magnetic fields are absent, FRs form through magnetic reconnection (MR) and magnetospheric or ionospheric boundary wave instabilities (BWIs), but their role in ion escape remains ...
