La serie de naves espaciales Pionero, Marinero y Viajero nos ha dado a conocer una impresionante variedad de magnetosferas planetarias. Debido a su cercanía, la magnetosfera terrestre es la que mejor entendemos. El viento solar provee parte del plasma y,

Recent advances in giant planetary space environments
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 ...

Low frequency waves are ubiquitous in space plasmas. Here, the authors show that the occurrence rate of ultra-low frequency waves associated with backstreaming ions in the Hermean foreshock increases with Mercury’s heliocentric distance.

Juno's flyby of Ganymede on 7 June 2021, provides a unique opportunity to explore the moon's magnetosphere. By means of Magnetometer (MAG) observations and a hybrid numerical simulation, we provide a global description of this environment and analyze the

Turbulence in the Magnetospheres of the Outer Planets
The magnetospheres of the outer planets exhibit turbulent phenomena in an environment which is qualitatively different compared to the solar wind or the interstellar medium.

Sliding Contacts in Planetary Magnetospheres [PDF]
In the planetary magnetospheres there are specific places connected with velocity breakdown, reconnection, and dynamo processes. Here we pay attention to sliding layers. Sliding layers are formed in the ionosphere, on separatrix surfaces, at the magnetopauses and boundaries of stellar astrospheres, and at the Alfvén radius in the equatorial ...

Detection of magnetospheric ion drift patterns at Mars
Mars lacks a global magnetic field, and instead possesses small-scale crustal magnetic fields, making its magnetic environment fundamentally different from intrinsic magnetospheres like those of Earth or Saturn.

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Magnetic contributions to the Earth’s magnetic field within the lithosphere are known as magnetic anomalies. Magnetic anomaly maps provide insight on magnetic properties of subsurface rock, geological structures, and plate tectonic history.
