TL;DR: In this paper, COSEA is devoted to coordinate the efforts of Portuguese, French, American and Swiss scientific institutions for the deployment, operation and maintenance of a temporary broadband seismic experiment in the Azores Islands and for the collection, distribution and scientific exploitation of data.
MESSENGER Observations of the Plasma Environment near Mercury
Jim M. Raines,Thomas H. Zurbuchen,George Gloeckler,James A. Slavin,Stamatios M. Krimigis,Ralph L. McNutt,Sean C. Solomon +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the MESSENGER Fast Imaging Plasma Spectrometer (FIPS) measurements were used to identify major features of the Mercury magnetosphere in the FIPS proton data and describe the data analysis process used for recovery of proton density (np) and temperature (Tp) with a forward modeling technique.
The Distribution of Iron on the Surface of Mercury from MESSENGER X-Ray Spectrometer Measurements
TL;DR: In this paper, the Mollweide projection is estimated from 50 XRS measurements of the surface of Mercury and a map of Fe/Si, corrected for phase angle, is presented.
