MAVEN Observations of Metallic Fe+ Distributions in the Martian Ionosphere

Abstract Metallic ions deposited in planetary atmospheres via meteoroid ablation are an invaluable tool for understanding electric fields, atmospheric winds, and minor ion transport. At Mars, metallic ion distributions are poorly understood. We analyze MAVEN/NGIMS Fe+ distributions in the Martian io...
