The structure of the Venus ionosphere

LH Brace, AJ Kliore - Space Science Reviews, 1991 - Springer
Our current knowledge of the spatial structure of the Venus ionosphere and its temporal
behavior is reviewed, with emphasis on the more recent Pioneer Venus measurements and …

Structure, luminosity, and dynamics of the Venus thermosphere

JL Fox, SW Bougher - Space science reviews, 1991 - Springer
We review here observations and models related to the chemical and thermal structures,
airglow and auroral emissions and dynamics of the Venus thermosphere, and compare …

The interaction of the solar wind with Venus

CT Russell, O Vaisberg - Venus, 1983 - elibrary.ru
Venus has been more frequently studied by space missions than any other planet.
Consequently, we know more about the solar wind interaction with Venus than with any …

LH Brace, WT Kasprzak, HA Taylor… - Journal of …, 1987 - Wiley Online Library
The Pioneer Venus Orbiter measurements of the plasma and magnetic environment of the
near tail of Venus show that the ionosphere becomes increasingly filamentary with …

Holes in the nightside ionosphere of Venus

LH Brace, RF Theis, HG Mayr, SA Curtis… - Journal of …, 1982 - Wiley Online Library
Measurements of electron density and temperature by the Pioneer Venus orbiter electron
temperature probe have been employed to examine the characteristics and morphology of …

Mars' plasma system. Scientific potential of coordinated multipoint missions:“The next generation”

B Sánchez-Cano, M Lester, DJ Andrews… - Experimental …, 2022 - Springer
The objective of this White Paper, submitted to ESA's Voyage 2050 call, is to get a more

Day‐to‐night transport in the Martian ionosphere: Implications from total electron content measurements

J Cui, M Galand, RV Yelle, Y Wei… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
The nightside Martian ionosphere is thought to be contributed by day‐to‐night transport and
electron precipitation, of which the former has not been well studied. In this work, we …

The escape of O from Mars: Sensitivity to the elastic cross sections

JL Fox, AB Hać - Icarus, 2014 - Elsevier
We have predicted the escape fluxes of energetic O from Mars for high and low solar activity
models of the martian thermosphere, using a Monte Carlo code to determine the escape …

Ion dynamics in the Venus ionosphere

KL Miller, RC Whitten - Space Science Reviews, 1991 - Springer
Dynamics play an important role in defining the characteristics of the Venus ionosphere. The
absence of a significant internal magnetic field at Venus allows the ionization to respond …
