The Solar Wind Interaction with (1) Ceres: The Role of Interior Conductivity

As a potential “ocean world,” (1) Ceres’ interior may possess relatively high electrical conductivities on the order of 10 ^−4 –10 ^0 S m ^−1 , suggesting that the solar wind interaction with Ceres may differ from other highly resistive objects such as the Moon. Here, we use a hybrid plasma model to...
