Most recent heater-based studies of magnetospheric processes and ionosphere-thermosphere-magnetosphere (ITM) system couplings use the “virtual antenna” concept, which allows generation and injection ...

A team of researchers has identified the atmospheric mechanism behind one of planetary science’s most stubborn puzzles: why ...

The general trend of space exploration in the 21st century is to paint a sobering picture of the Sun-Earth coupling, by investigating the interactions and causal relationships between isolated and ...

Planetary magnetospheres arise from the interaction between an intrinsic or induced magnetic field and the impinging solar wind. In intrinsic systems, such as those of Earth and Jupiter, a dipolar ...

The Committee on Solar and Space Physics (CSSP) provides an independent, authoritative forum for identifying and discussing issues in solar and space physics with the research community, the federal ...
