Kinetic Monte Carlo Model for the Precipitation of High-Energy Protons and Hydrogen Atoms into the Atmosphere of Mars with Taking into Account the Measured Magnetic Field

Gérard, J. -C.; Hubert, B.; Shematovich, V. I. +1 more

Results of model computations of the interaction of the high-energy protons and hydrogen atoms (H/H⁺) precipitating into the Martian atmosphere are presented. These computations were performed using a modification of the kinetic Monte Carlo model developed earlier for the analysis of the data from the MEX/ASPERA-3 instrument onboard the…
