Circulation of Venusian Atmosphere at 90–110 km Based on Apparent Motions of the O2 1.27 μm Nightglow From VIRTIS‐M (Venus Express) Data
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Geophysical Research Letters"
DOI: 10.1002/2017gl076380
Abstract: The paper is devoted to the investigation of Venus mesosphere circulation at 90–110 km altitudes, where tracking of the O2(a1Δg) 1.27 μm nightglow is practically the only method of studying the circulation. The images of the nightglow… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/advs.202405544
Abstract: Numerous plants evolve ingeniously microcantilever‐based hairs to ultra‐sensitively detect out‐of‐plane quasi‐static tactile loads, providing a natural blueprint for upgrading the industrial static mode microcantilever sensors, but how do the biological sensory hairs work mechanically? Here,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.icarus.2018.05.014
Abstract: Abstract Venus has similar size, density and bulk composition as Earth, but has tectonically evolved clearly differently and this divergence remains enigmatic. Surface observations such as gravity, topography and surface age constrain Venus’ evolution, but… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2023gl107756
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… read more here.
