Observational research on Mercury's magnetosphere
地球与行星物理论评, 2021 Mercury's miniature magnetosphere has no radiation belts, ionosphere, plasmasphere and atmosphere, only a weak exosphere. The induction effect of the planet's very large iron core is obvious. These result in a significant different space environment from

Earth and Planetary Physics, 2023 Whistler mode waves are critical emissions in magnetized plasmas that usually influence the electron dynamics in a planetary magnetosphere. In this paper, we present a unique event in the Martian magnetosphere in which enhanced whistler mode waves (~10 ...

On the supply of heavy planetary material to the magnetotail of Mercury [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2013 We examine the transport of low-energy heavy ions of planetary origin (O+, Na+, Ca+) in the magnetosphere of Mercury. We show that, in contrast to Earth, these ions are abruptly energized after ejection into the magnetosphere due to enhanced curvature-

The effects of stellar winds on the magnetospheres and potential habitability of exoplanets [PDF]
, 2014 Context: The principle definition of habitability for exoplanets is whether they can sustain liquid water on their surfaces, i.e. that they orbit within the habitable zone.

Recent advances in giant planetary space environments
地球与行星物理论评, 2021 Among the eight solar system planets, Jupiter and Saturn are the two most giant planets, which also have the most prominent magnetic moments. Comparing to the Earth dipole magnetic field, the magnetic moment of Saturn is about 600 times larger while ...

Saturn's Exploration Beyond Cassini-Huygens [PDF]
, 2009 For its beautiful rings, active atmosphere and mysterious magnetic field, Saturn is a fascinating planet. It also holds some of the keys to understanding the formation of our Solar System and the evolution of giant planets in general.

Ion dynamics during compression of Mercury's magnetosphere [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2010 Because of the small planetary magnetic field as well as proximity to the Sun that leads to enhanced solar wind pressure as compared to Earth, the magnetosphere of Mercury is very dynamical and at times subjected to prominent compression.

The Impact of Hot Jupiters on the Spin-down of their Host Stars [PDF]
, 2010 We present a numerical Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) study of the dependence of stellar mass and angular momentum- loss rates on the orbital distance to close-in giant planets.

Direct evidence of substorm-related impulsive injections of electrons at Mercury
Nature Communications, 2023 Mercury’s magnetosphere is known to involve fundamental processes releasing particles and energy like at Earth due to the solar wind interaction. The resulting cycle is however much faster and involves acceleration, transport, loss, and recycling of ...
