Mars' magnetism, and its interaction with the solar wind : an integration of Mars Global Surveyor and Phobos Mission /
Given that the question of an internal magnetic field is of fundamental importance to the understanding of Mars' formation and thermal evolution, and of the evolution of Mars' atmosphere, surprisingly few of the many spacecraft sent to Mars were equipped with instrumentation for such inves...
