Tianwen-1 MINPA observations in the solar wind

AiBing Zhang et al.

Summary: This article presents the first results of MINPA observations in the solar wind during the transfer orbit of Tianwen-1, and compares them with data from Earth-based missions. The study finds that despite the blocking effect of the lander capsule, the MINPA's solar wind measurements exhibit good performance.

Statistical Properties of Solar Wind Upstream of Mars: MAVEN Observations

Di Liu et al.

Summary: The statistical properties of solar wind upstream of Mars for the first time have been investigated by analyzing key parameters such as IMF, proton density, velocity, and dynamic pressure, revealing their variations with heliocentric distance. It was found that IMF and dynamic pressure are related to solar activity level, while velocity remains relatively constant regardless of solar activity level and distance.
