The case for studying other planetary magnetospheres and atmospheres in Heliophysics

Ian J. Cohen, Chris Arridge, Abigail Azari +37

Heliophysics is the field that "studies the nature of the Sun, and how it influences the very nature of space - and, in turn, the atmospheres of planetary bodies and the technology…

The source of electrons at comet 67P

P. Stephenson, A. Beth, J. Deca +8

We examine the origin of electrons in a weakly outgassing comet, using Rosetta mission data and a 3D collisional model of electrons at a comet. We have calculated a new dataset of…

Development of a cometosheath at comet 67P/Churuyumov-Gerasimenko: A case study comparison of Rosetta observations

H. N. Williamson, H. Nilsson, G. Stenberg Wieser +2

Context: The ionosphere of a comet is known to deflect the solar wind through mass loading, but the interaction is dependent on cometary activity. We investigate the details of thi…

Momentum and pressure balance of a comet ionosphere

Hayley Williamson, Hans Nilsson, Gabriella Stenberg Wieser +3

We calculate the momentum flux and pressure of ions measured by the Ion Composition Analyzer (ICA) on the Rosetta mission at comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. The total momentum flu…

Mars' plasma system. Scientific potential of coordinated multi-point missions: "The next generation" (A White Paper submitted to ESA's Voyage 2050 Call)

Beatriz Sánchez-Cano, Mark Lester, David J. Andrews +27

The objective of this White Paper submitted to ESA's Voyage 2050 call is to get a more holistic knowledge of the dynamics of the Martian plasma system from its surface up to the un…

CME impact on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

Niklas J. T. Edberg, M. Alho, M. André +22

We present Rosetta observations from comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko during the impact of a coronal mass ejection (CME). The CME impacted on 5-6 Oct 2015, when Rosetta was about 80…

The birth and growth of a solar wind cavity around a comet -- Rosetta observations

E. Behar, H. Nilsson, M. Alho +2

The Rosetta mission provided detailed observations of the growth of a cavity in the solar wind around comet 67P/CG. As the comet approached the Sun, the plasma of cometary origin g…

The root of a comet tail - Rosetta ion observations at comet 67P/Churyumov--Gerasimenko

E. Behar, H. Nilsson, P. Henri +7

The first 1000 km of the ion tail of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko were explored by the European Rosetta spacecraft, 2.7 au away from the Sun. We characterised the dynamics of bo…

Plasma Density Structures at Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

I. A. D. Engelhardt, A. I. Eriksson, G. Stenberg Wieser +7

We present Rosetta RPC case study from four events at various radial distance, phase angle and local time from autumn 2015, just after perihelion of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko…
