Empirical Functions for Highly Charged Ion Abundances in Solar Wind Charge Exchange Models: Addressing Post‐2011 ACE Data Limitations

Empirical Functions for Highly Charged Ion Abundances in Solar Wind Charge Exchange Models: Addressing Post‐2011 ACE Data Limitations

Abstract Upcoming imaging missions—NASA's LEXI and ESA/CAS's SMILE—will target solar wind charge exchange X‐ray (SWCX) emission from Earth's magnetosheath. This emission is generated by highly charged ions colliding with neutrals in Earth's exosphere. Accurate SWCX models require...
