Solar corona-induced fluctuations on spacecraft signal amplitude observed during solar superior conjunctions of the Cassini spacecraft
DOI: 10.1029/2005RS003425 Bibcode: 2007RaSc...42.3002M

Morabito, David D.

During the superior solar conjunctions of interplanetary spacecraft, the emitted radio signals undergo increased amplitude scintillation, phase scintillation, and spectral broadening due to the intervening charged particles of the solar corona. The magnitude of these parameters generally increases as the angle between the spacecraft and the center…

Three-dimensional finite difference time domain modeling of the Schumann resonance parameters on Titan, Venus, and Mars

Yang, Heng; Pasko, Victor P.; Yair, Yoav

The conducting ionosphere and conducting surface of Titan, Venus, and Mars form a concentric resonator, which would support the possibility of the existence of global electromagnetic resonances. On Earth, such resonances are commonly referred to as Schumann resonances and are excited by lightning discharges. The detection of such resonances on oth…
