Solar System Physics and Space Technology

Science

Our main scientific goal is to study

We explore near-planetary/asteroid/comet environment, defined as the region where the body's atmosphere, ionosphere, and fields are dominant and interact with the interplanetary medium, including its dust population.


We focus our research on the terrestrial planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, and their satellites. Studies of the solar wind interaction with comets, asteroids, and dust plasma physic complete the picture. Also we intend to study the astrobiological consequences of the solar wind interaction, in particular, for Mars and Earth using our knowledge of planetary environment. More specifically, we want to address the following questions:
