The Martian ionosphere originates from the ionization of the planetary neutral atmosphere
by solar radiation. This conductive layer is embedded within the thermosphere and …

Abstract The Radio Occultation Science Experiment (ROSE) is part of the scientific payload
of the Mars Atmosphere Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN) spacecraft. Here we motivate the …

We report the results of the observations of the ionosphere of Mars by the Neutral Gas and
Ion Mass Spectrometer. These observations were conducted during the first 8 months of the …

We present Mars' electron temperature (Te) and density (ne) altitude profiles derived from
the MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN) mission deep dip orbits in April 2015 …

Measurement of the dense cold thermal plasma in planetary ionospheres via orbiting
spacecraft is challenging because ion energies are small (0–4 eV), densities can vary by …

We describe the Mars ionosphere with unprecedented detail in 3‐D, as simulated by a Mars
general circulation model (the Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique Mars GCM), and …

Abstract Mars Express, the first European interplanetary mission, carries the Mars Advanced
Radar for Subsurface and Ionosphere Sounding (MARSIS) to search for ice and water in the …

Abstract Prior to the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution mission, the only information
on the composition of the Martian ionosphere came from the Viking Retarding Potential …

We present dayside electron temperature (Te) and density altitude profiles at Mars from
MAVEN satellite deep‐dip orbits. The data are after recalibration of the Langmuir Probe and …

To study the transport of the ionospheric plasma on Mars, we have included a 3‐D multifluid
dynamical core in a Martian general circulation model. Vertical transport modifies the ion …
