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…
Solar flares observed by Rosetta at comet 67P
N. J. T. Edberg, F. L. Johansson, A. I. Eriksson +6
Context. The Rosetta spacecraft made continuous measurements of the coma of comet 67P/ Churyumov-Gerasimenko (67P) for more than two years. The plasma in the coma appeared very dyn…
Solar wind interaction with comet 67P: impacts of corotating interaction regions
Niklas J. T. Edberg, A. I. Eriksson, E. Odelstad +18
We present observations from the Rosetta Plasma Consortium of the effects of stormy solar wind on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Four corotating interaction regions (CIRs), where…
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…
Titan's variable ionosphere during the T118-T119 Cassini flybys
N. J. T. Edberg, E. Vigren, D. Snowden +6
A significant difference in Titan's ionospheric electron density is observed between the T118 and T119 Cassini nightside flybys. These flybys had similar geometry, occurred at the…
MARSIS observations of field-aligned irregularities and ducted radio propagation in the Martian ionosphere
David J. Andrews, Hermann J. Opgenoorth, Thomas B. Leyser +7
Knowledge of Mars's ionosphere has been significantly advanced in recent years by observations from Mars Express (MEX) and lately MAVEN. A topic of particular interest are the inte…
