Titre(s) : The plasma environment of Venus, Mars, and Titan [Texte électronique] / edited by Karoly Szego
Publication : New York, NY : Springer, cop. 2012
Description matérielle : 1 online resource (334 pages)
Collection : Space sciences series of ISSI ; v. 37
Note(s) : Includes bibliographical references
This volume summarizes the recent results of the exploration of Venus, Mars, and Titan
in the field of space plasma physics. These are the only non-magnetic solar system
bodies having dense atmospheres. A number of space missions investigated these objects;
the past and the current missions are put in context with modern theoretical descriptions.
The strength of the book is the comparison of the similarities and differences in
the plasma interaction of Venus, Mars and Titan; such comparisons have not yet been
published. This volume is aimed at graduate students and researchers working in planetary
science and space physics. Previously published in Space Science Reviews journal,
