The Transfer of Solar Wind Energy to the Venusian Ionosphere Through Magnetic Pumping: Evidence From Pioneer Venus Orbiter Observations

Abstract The collisionless nature of planetary magnetospheres means that electromagnetic forces are fundamental in controlling the flow of energy and momentum through these systems. We use Pioneer Venus Orbiter (PVO) observations to demonstrate that the magnetic pumping process can be active at Venu...
