Magnetic Field and Plasma Asymmetries Between the Martian Quasi-Perpendicular and Quasi-Parallel Magnetosheaths
Abigail Tadlock, Chuanfei Dong, Chi Zhang +3
The Martian magnetosheath acts as a conduit for mass and energy transfer between the upstream solar wind and its induced magnetosphere. However, our understanding of its global pro…
