Solar wind entry into the high-latitude terrestrial magnetosphere during geomagnetically quiet times
Wei, Y.; Zhang, H.; Zong, Q. -G. +14 more
An understanding of the transport of solar wind plasma into and throughout the terrestrial magnetosphere is crucial to space science and space weather. For non-active periods, there is little agreement on where and how plasma entry into the magnetosphere might occur. Moreover, behaviour in the high-latitude region behind the magnetospheric cusps, …
Photochemical activity of Titan’s low-altitude condensed haze
Gudipati, Murthy S.; Allen, Mark; Jacovi, Ronen +2 more
Titan, the largest moon of Saturn and similar to Earth in many aspects, has unique orange-yellow colour that comes from its atmospheric haze, whose formation and dynamics are far from well understood. Present models assume that Titan’s tholin-like haze formation occurs high in atmosphere through gas-phase chemical reactions initiated by high-energ…
