An important discovery of MESSENGER is the occurrence of dayside disappearing
magnetosphere (DDM) events that occur when the solar wind dynamic pressure is extremely …

Understanding Mercury's magnetosphere is crucial for advancing our comprehension of
how the solar wind interacts with the planetary magnetospheres. Despite previous missions …

Mercury's southern inner magnetosphere is an unexplored region as it was not observed by
earlier space missions. In October 2021, BepiColombo mission has passed through this …

When the solar wind interacts with the ionosphere of an unmagnetized planet, it induces
currents that form an induced magnetosphere. These currents and their associated magnetic …

As a potential" ocean world,"(1) Ceres' interior may possess relatively high electrical
conductivities on the order of 10− 4–10 0 S m− 1, suggesting that the solar wind interaction …

Magnetosheath jets represent localized enhancements in dynamic pressure observed within
the magnetosheath. These energetic entities, carrying excess energy and momentum, can …

Plasma high-speed jets are common in Earth's magnetosheath, and they significantly
perturb the magnetosheath and affect the magnetosphere. The space environment of …

Although solar wind‐driven convection is expected to dominate magnetospheric circulation
at Mercury, its exact pattern remains poorly characterized by observations. Here we present …

Mercury is the smallest and innermost planet of our solar system and has a dipole‐
dominated internal magnetic field that is relatively weak, very axisymmetric and significantly …

Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and the smallest terrestrial planet. It has a unique
space environment. Mariner 10 found and confirmed that Mercury possesses a global …
