The MAVEN magnetic field investigation is part of a comprehensive particles and fields
subsystem that will measure the magnetic and electric fields and plasma environment of …

Habitability is a widely used word in the geoscience, planetary science, and astrobiology
literature, but what does it mean? In this review on habitability, we define it as the ability of …

The climate of early Mars remains a topic of intense debate. Ancient terrains preserve
landscapes consistent with stream channels, lake basins and possibly even oceans, and …

While devoid of an active magnetic dynamo field today, Mars possesses a remanent
magnetic field that may reach several thousand nanoteslas locally. The exact origin and the …

We use Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) data to identify and characterize the
global distribution of distinct materials interpreted to contain chloride salts on the Martian …

We present a model of the lithospheric magnetic field of Mars which is based on Mars Global
Surveyor orbiting satellite data and represented by an expansion of spherical harmonic (SH) …

Abstract The Interior exploration using Seismic Investigations, Geodesy, and Heat Transport
(InSight) Mission will focus on Mars' interior structure and evolution. The basic structure of …

Abstract The Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution mission has obtained comprehensive
particle and magnetic field measurements. The Solar Wind Electron Analyzer provides …

The lithospheric contribution to the Earth's magnetic field is concealed in magnetic field data
that have now been measured over several decades from ground to satellite altitudes. The …

Our knowledge of Mars has changed dramatically in the past 40 years due to the wealth of
information provided by Earth-based and orbiting telescopes, and spacecraft investigations …
