The Dayside Ionopause of Mars: Solar Wind Interaction, Pressure Balance, and Comparisons with Venus
F. Chu, Z. Girazian, F. Duru +5
Due to the lower ionospheric thermal pressure and existence of the crustal magnetism at Mars, the Martian ionopause is expected to behave differently from the ionopause at Venus. W…
The Effects of Solar Wind Dynamic Pressure on the Structure of the Topside Ionosphere of Mars
Z. Girazian, J. Halekas, D. D. Morgan +3
We use Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN observations of the upstream solar wind, and Mars Express observations of ionospheric electron densities and magnetic fields, to study…
The effects of crustal magnetic fields and solar EUV flux on ionopause formation at Mars
F. Chu, Z. Girazian, D. A. Gurnett +5
We study the ionopause of Mars using a database of 6,893 ionopause detections obtained over 11 years by the MARSIS (Mars Advanced Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding) expe…
Whistler mode waves upstream of Saturn
Ali H Sulaiman, Donald A Gurnett, Jasper S Halekas +3
Whistler-mode waves are generated within and can propagate upstream of collisionless shocks. They are known to play a role in electron thermodynamics/acceleration and, under certai…
Plasma observations during the Mars atmospheric "plume" event of March-April 2012
D. J. Andrews, S. Barabash, N. J. T. Edberg +10
We present initial analysis and conclusions from plasma observations made during the reported "Mars plume event" of March - April 2012. During this period, multiple independent ama…
