Plasma Interactions with Icy Bodies in the Solar System

Plasma Interactions with Icy Bodies in the Solar System

Here I study the “plasma interactions with icy bodies in the solar system”, that is, my quest to understand the fundamental processes that govern such interactions. By using numerical modelling combined with in situ observations, one can infer the internal structure of icy bodies and their plasma en...
