High-resolution local magnetic field models for the Martian South Pole from Mars Global Surveyor data
We present two high-resolution local models for the crustal magnetic field of the Martian south polar region. Models SP130 and SP130M were derived from three-component measurements made by Mars Global Surveyor at nighttime and at low altitude (<200 km). The availability area for these data covers the annulus between latitudes −76∘ and −87∘ and contains a strongly magnetized region (southern par...
متن کاملControls on Martian hydrothermal systems: Application to valley network and magnetic anomaly formation
[1] Models of hydrothermal groundwater circulation can quantify limits to the role of hydrothermal activity in Martian crustal processes. We present here the results of numerical simulations of convection in a porous medium due to the presence of a hot intruded magma chamber. The parameter space includes magma chamber depth, volume, aspect ratio, and host rock permeability and porosity. A prima...
متن کاملThermal anomaly in Enceladus’ South Pole subsurface
On November 6, 2011, during the E16 flyby, the Cassini Radar had a unique opportunity to closely observe Enceladus in both its active and passive modes of operation. The E16 swath aimed at about 66°S, close to the active South polar rifted area. In this paper, we show that the radiometry data collected during this flyby revealed brightness temperatures much higher than expected, pointing to a g...
متن کاملCrater Population and Resurfacing at the Martian North Pole
Introduction: The Martian north polar residual cap (NRC) lies on top of the north polar layered deposits (NPLD). The NRC is about 1m thick and composed primarily of large-grained, dust-poor water ice [1]. The mass balance of the polar cap is uncertain. Long-term monitoring reveals small reversible changes in its extent on an interannual basis [2]. Images with a pixel scale of up to 0.25 m/pixel...
متن کاملThe Vesta gravity field, spin pole and rotation period, landmark positions, and ephemeris from the Dawn tracking and optical data
The Vesta gravity field and related physical parameters have been precisely measured using 10-months of radiometric Doppler and range data and optical landmark tracking from the Dawn spacecraft. The gravity field, orientation parameters, landmark locations, and Vesta’s orbit are jointly estimated. The resulting spherical harmonic gravity field has a half-wavelength resolution of 42 km (degree 2...
