摘要：Shortly after NASA’s Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN mission (MAVEN) spacecraft entered Mars’ orbit on 21 September 2014, scientists glimpsed the Martian atmosphere’s response to a front of solar energetic particles (SEPs) and an associated coronal mass ejection (CME). In response to some solar flares and CMEs, streams of SEPs burst from the solar atmosphere and are further accelerated in the interplanetary medium between the Sun and the planets. These particles deposit their energy and momentum into anything in their path, including the Martian atmosphere and MAVEN particle detectors.
