MHD study of extreme space weather conditions for exoplanets with Earth-like magnetospheres: On habitability conditions and radio-emission
J. Varela, A. S. Brun, P. Zarka +3
The present study aims at characterizing the habitability conditions of exoplanets with an Earth-like magnetosphere inside the habitable zone of M stars and F stars like tau Boo, c…
Effect of the exoplanet magnetic field topology on its magnetospheric radio emission
J. Varela, V. Réville, A. S. Brun +2
The magnetized wind from stars that impact exoplanets should lead to radio emissions. According to the scaling laws derived in the solar system, the radio emission should depend on…
Slow modes in the Hermean magnetosphere: effect of the solar wind hydrodynamic parameters and IMF orientation
J. Varela, F. Pantellini, M. Moncuquet
The aim of this study is to simulate the slow mode structures in the Hermean magnetosphere. We use a single fluid MHD model and a multipolar expansion of the Northward displaced He…
Plasma streams in the Hermean dayside magnetosphere: solar wind injection through the reconnection region
J. Varela, F. Pantellini, M. Moncuquet
The aim of this research is to simulate the interaction of the solar wind with the magnetic field of Mercury and to study the particle fluxes between the magnetosheath and the plan…
The effect of interplanetary magnetic field orientation on the solar wind flux impacting Mercury's surface
J. Varela, F. Pantellini, M. Moncuquet
The aim of this paper is to study the plasma flows on the Mercury surface for different interplanetary magnetic field orientations on the day side of the planet. We use a single fl…
Parametric study of the solar wind interaction with the Hermean magnetosphere for a weak interplanetary magnetic field
J. Varela, F. Pantellini, M. Moncuquet
The aim of this study is to simulate the interaction of the solar wind with the Hermean magnetosphere when the interplanetary magnetic field is weak, performing a parametric study…
Effect of the interplanetary magnetic field orientation and intensity in the mass and energy deposition on the Hermean surface
J. Varela, F. Pantellini, M. Moncuquet
The aim of the present study is to simulate the interaction between the solar wind and the Hermean magnetosphere. We use the MHD code PLUTO in spherical coordinates with an axisymm…
