Journal ArticleDOI

First multispacecraft ion measurements in and near the Earth's magnetosphere with the identical Cluster ion spectrometry (CIS) experiment

TL;DR: The Cluster Ion Spectrometry (CIS) experiment as discussed by the authors measured the full, three-dimensional ion distribution of the major magnetospheric ions (H+, He+, He++, and O+) from the thermal energies to about 40 keV/e.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global distribution of crustal magnetization discovered by the mars global surveyor MAG/ER experiment

TL;DR: Vector magnetic field observations of the martian crust were acquired by the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) magnetic field experiment/electron reflectometer (MAG/ER) during the aerobraking and science phasing orbits, at altitudes between approximately 100 and 200 kilometers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetic Field and Plasma Observations at Mars: Initial Results of the Mars Global Surveyor Mission

TL;DR: The magnetometer and electron reflectometer investigation on the Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft has obtained magnetic field and plasma observations throughout the near-Mars environment, but here the discovery of multiple magnetic anomalies of small spatial scale in the crust of Mars is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Magnetic lineations in the ancient crust of mars

TL;DR: The Mars Global Surveyor spacecraft obtained vector magnetic field measurements above the surface of Mars and groups of quasi-parallel linear features of alternating magnetic polarity were found, reminiscent of similar magnetic features associated with sea floor spreading and crustal genesis on Earth but with a much larger spatial scale.
