Dust storm-enhanced gravity wave activity in the Martian thermosphere observed by MAVEN and implication for atmospheric escape
Erdal Yiğit, Alexander S. Medvedev, Mehdi Benna +1
Lower atmospheric global dust storms affect the small- and large-scale weather and variability of the whole Martian atmosphere. Analysis of the CO density data from the Neutral…
The magnetic structure of the subsolar MPB current layer from MAVEN observations: Implications for the Hall electric force
G. Boscoboinik, C. Bertucci, D. Gomez +7
We report on the local structure of the Martian subsolar Magnetic Pileup Boundary (MPB) from minimum variance analysis of the magnetic field measured by the Mars Atmosphere and Vol…
Modeling Martian Atmospheric Losses over Time: Implications for Exoplanetary Climate Evolution and Habitability
Chuanfei Dong, Yuni Lee, Yingjuan Ma +11
In this Letter, we make use of sophisticated 3D numerical simulations to assess the extent of atmospheric ion and photochemical losses from Mars over time. We demonstrate that the…
Mars Thermospheric Variability Revealed by MAVEN EUVM Solar Occultations: Structure at Aphelion and Perihelion, and Response to EUV Forcing
E. M. B. Thiemann, F. G. Eparvier, S. W. Bougher +6
The Mars thermosphere holds clues to the evolution of the Martian climate, and has practical implications for spacecraft visiting Mars, which often use it for aerobraking upon arri…
The Propitious Role of Solar Energetic Particles in the Origin of Life
Manasvi Lingam, Chuanfei Dong, Xiaohua Fang +2
We carry out 3-D numerical simulations to assess the penetration and bombardment effects of Solar Energetic Particles (SEPs), i.e. high-energy particle bursts during large flares a…
