Effects of a Weak Intrinsic Magnetic Field on Atmospheric Escape From Mars

The magnetization of a planet significantly changes the nature of atmospheric escape, and the question of whether a planetary field shields atmosphere from erosion by the solar wind or not remains open. Ion escape processes from Mars are investigated under two hypothetical conditions, namely, no int...
