Solar Wind Deflection by Mass Loading in the Martian Magnetosheath Based on MAVEN Observations

Abstract Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN observations at Mars show clear signatures of the shocked solar wind interaction with the extended oxygen atmosphere and hot corona displayed in a lateral deflection of the magnetosheath flow in the direction opposite to the direction of the solar wind...
