Simultaneous Mars-orbit observations reveal Kelvin-Helmholtz instability-driven bulk atmospheric ion escape
Chi Zhang, Chuanfei Dong, Gangkai Poh +11
Atmospheric ion escape driven by the solar wind is a key process controlling the long-term loss of the Martian atmosphere. Localized plasma clouds can carry substantial fluxes of p…

MESSENGER observations of Mercury's planetary ion escape rates and their dependence on true anomaly angle
Weijie Sun, Ryan M. Dewey, Xianzhe Jia +11
This study investigates the escape of Mercury's sodium-group ions (Na+-group, including ions with m/q from 21 to 30 amu/e) and their dependence on true anomaly angle (TAA), i.e., M…
