LPI Seminar: MESSENGER Observations of Mercury’s Dynamic Magnetosphere (James A. Slavin, Department of Climate and Space Science & Engineering, University of Michigan),
Lecture Hall
Mercury’s magnetosphere is formed by the interaction of the solar wind with its small, ~ 200 nT – RM3, intrinsic magnetic field. The mean altitude of the subsolar magnetopause is only ~ 0.5 RM, but planetary induction currents in Mercury’s highly conducting iron core strongly resist solar wind compression. The weak conductivity of Mercury’s regolith severely limits field-aligned current intensity, but Region 1 currents are measured at low altitudes with magnitudes up to several tens of kilo-Amperes. These currents pass radially through Mercury’s ~ 400 km thick regolith to close across its iron core. Mercury’s surface-bounded exosphere is maintained by sputtering and other surface interactions that eject neutrals from the regolith. While the magnetospheric plasma is primarily of solar wind origin, i.e. H+ and He++, Na+ and other heavy planetary ions derived from the exosphere account for ~ 1 to 10% of ion number density. Magnetic reconnection at the magnetopause is far more frequent and intense than at Earth. “Showers” of 100+ flux transfer events are often observed during a single magnetopause traversal. Indeed, the dayside magnetosphere is sometimes observed to disappear during periods of strong southward interplanetary magnetic fields. Magnetic field loading/unloading of the magnetotail is observed at Mercury similar to that seen at Earth during substorms. Mercury’s substorms are associated with magnetic field dipolarization, energetic electron acceleration and plasmoid ejection, but they last only ~ 2 – 3 min as compared with ~ 1 – 2 hrs for Earth. Future prospects for understanding Mercury’s coupled magnetosphere – exosphere – solid planet as a system with the measurements to be returned by ESA’s BepiColombo mission in 2025 will be discussed.

Fourth International Conference on Early Mars: Geologic, Hydrologic, and Climatic Evolution and the Implications for Life (#earlymars2017),
Flagstaff, Arizona
The influx of new data received from recent spacecraft missions to Mars, the study of the SNC meteorites, recent progress in early climate modeling, the growing evidence of the role of water in the planet’s evolution, and the rapid pace of new discoveries about the origin and diversity of life on Earth have reinvigorated interest in both the conditions that prevailed on Mars during its first billion years of geologic history and their implications for the development of life. These issues were previously discussed at the first (1997, Houston, Texas), second (2004, Jackson Hole, Wyoming), and third (2012, Lake Tahoe, Nevada) Early Mars conferences, as well as in the papers published as part of the three associated special sections of JGR–Planets. Like its predecessors, the Fourth Early Mars Conference will place a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary discussion and debate, bringing together scientists from fields as diverse as planetary geology, hydrology, atmospheres, climate, meteoritics, microbiology, and molecular biochemistry,to focus on the conditions that prevailed on Earth and Mars during their first billion years of geologic history. The purpose of the conference is twofold: (1) to consider how impacts, volcanism, the presence of abundant water, and the nature of the early terrestrial and martian climates affected the physical and chemical environments that existed on both planets >3.7 Ga — especially with regard to the geologic and mineralogical evolution of their surfaces, their hydrologic cycles, the development of life, and the preservation of its signature in the geologic record; and (2) to discuss the investigations that might be conducted by present and future missions to test the hypotheses arising from (1).
