Energetic Electron Pitch-angle Distributions in the Martian Space Environment: Pancake

We perform a statistical investigation of the occurrence rates of energetic electron (100–500 eV) pancake pitch-angle distributions (PADs) in the Martian space environment by utilizing 6 yr of MAVEN data. In the Martian ionosphere, we find the following: (1) at the same altitude in the terminator an...
