Ionospheric ambipolar electric fields of Mars and Venus : Comparisons between theoretical predictions and direct observations of the electric potential drop
We test the hypothesis that their dominant driver of a planetary ambipolar electric field is the ionospheric electron pressure gradient (∇P e). The ionospheres of Venus and Mars are mapped using Langmuir probe measurements from NASA's Pioneer Venus Orbiter (PVO) and Mars Atmosphere and Volatile...
