Radio science measurements of atmospheric refractivity with Mars Global Surveyor
(American Geophysical Union, 2006-05-20)
Radio occultation experiments with Mars Global Surveyor measure the refractive index of the Martian atmosphere from the surface to ~250 km in geopotential height. Refractivity is proportional to neutral density at low ...
Trapped photoelectrons during spacecraft charging in sunlight
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2015-09)
For a dielectric spacecraft charging in sunlight, the potentials are different on the sunlit and dark sides. Differential charging of spacecraft surfaces can trap low-energy electrons by means of potential wells and barriers. ...
