The siphonic energy transfer between hot solar wind and cold martian ionosphere through open magnetic flux rope

A mechanism for energy transfer from the solar wind to the Martian ionosphere through open magnetic flux rope is proposed based on the observations by Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN). The satellite was located in the dayside magnetosheath at an altitude of about 700 km above the north...
