The Martian Ionospheric Response to the Co‐Rotating Interaction Region That Caused the Disappearing Solar Wind Event at Mars
JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH: SPACE PHYSICS
02 march 2024
Skylar Shaver, Lincoln Solt, Laila Andersson, Jasp...

An unusually low density solar wind event was observed in December 2022 moving past both Earth and Mars. The source was traced back to a coronal ho...
