In situ, Surface-deployed Distributed Instruments for Planetary Science: Scientific Opportunities and Technology Feasibility

The Planetary Science Journal
In this paper, we assess the scientific promise and technology feasibility of in situ distributed instruments for planetary surface and atmospheric science. A distributed instrument is an instrument designed to collect spatially and temporally correlated

Frequency Characteristics of Magnetosonic Waves Driven by Hot Ring-Beam Protons

The Astrophysical Journal
Magnetosonic (MS) waves can be generated by energetic ring-beam protons, appearing as harmonics near the local proton cyclotron frequency, in the planetary ionospheres/magnetospheres.

Effects of the 2007 Martian Global Dust Storm on Boundary Positions in the Induced Magnetosphere

The Planetary Science Journal
Mars's magnetosphere is a sensitive system, varying due to external and internal factors, such as solar wind conditions and crustal magnetic fields.

Wave Responses to Magnetosheath Boundary Motion at Saturn: Mirror Modes and Electromagnetic Ion Cyclotron Waves

The Astrophysical Journal
Saturn’s magnetosheath provides a natural laboratory for studying the generation and evolution of low-frequency plasma waves that play a key role in regulating temperature anisotropy and mediating wave–particle interactions.

Relativistic Electron Acceleration and the “Ankle” Spectral Feature in Earth’s Magnetotail Reconnection

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Electrons are accelerated to high, nonthermal energies during explosive energy-release events in space, such as magnetic reconnection. However, the properties and acceleration mechanisms of relativistic electrons directly associated with the reconnection

A Study of Slow-mode Shocks in the Near-Earth Magnetotail with MMS Observations and Hybrid Simulations

The Astrophysical Journal
The structure of the magnetic reconnection boundary, particularly the presence of slow-mode shocks in the near-Earth magnetotail was studied by using magnetospheric multiscale (MMS) observations and 2.5D hybrid simulations. A total of 51 crossings of MMS

Turbulent Magnetic Reconnection as an Acceleration Mechanism in Earth’s Magnetotail

The Astrophysical Journal
Using electric and magnetic fields measured by the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission, we construct a test-particle simulation of a turbulent magnetic reconnection region to investigate observed ion acceleration. We identify three types of energized

STRUCTURE AND DYNAMICS OF PLANETARY MAGNETOSPHERES

, 2022
The interactions between the ambient plasmas and the objects of the Solar System result in variable exchanges both in time and space of mass, momentum and energy within different types of magnetospheres. The characterization of the sources, the general circulation and the losses of the magnetospheric plasmas as well as the identification of the ...
