Modeling of non-thermal fractions formed in the extended hydrogen corona at Mars by Valery Shematovich, Dmitry Bisikalo, Dmitry Bisikalo

“…Our calculations reveal that non-thermal escape rates can reach ∼26% of the thermal escape rate during aphelion and solar minimum conditions. This finding has significant implications for Mars’ atmospheric evolution: while current escape rates are modulated by solar activity, the more active young Sun likely drove substantially higher non-thermal escape. …”
