Revealing the interior structure of icy moons with a Bayesian approach to magnetic induction measurements

John B. Biersteker, Benjamin P. Weiss, Corey J. Cochrane +6

Some icy moons and small bodies in the solar system are believed to host subsurface liquid water oceans. The interaction of these saline, electrically conductive oceans with time-v…

MESSENGER observations of planetary ion enhancements at Mercury's northern magnetospheric cusp during Flux Transfer Event Showers

Weijie Sun, James A. Slavin, Anna Milillo +11

At Mercury, several processes can release ions and neutrals out of the planet's surface. Here we present enhancements of dayside planetary ions in the solar wind entry layer during…
