Abstract. A Mars-orbiting sub-millimeter sensor can be used to retrieve the magnetic field at low altitudes over large areas of significant planetary crustal magnetism of the surface of Mars from measurements of circularly polarized radiation emitted by the 368 GHz ground-state molecular oxygen absorption line. We design a full retrieval system for one example orbit to show the expected accuracies on the magnetic field components that one realization of such a Mars satellite mission could achieve. We find that the two horizontal components of the magnetic field can be measured at about 200 nT accuracy, globally, with a vertical resolution of about 4 km from about 6 km up to 70 km in tangent altitude. The method and some of its potential pitfalls are described and discussed.

Alternative Theories

Difficulties of the dynamo and alternative theories of the magnetic field generation are briefly discussed. The correlation between η = lg μ/μo and ζ = lg J/Jo for rotating celestial bodies is considered. μ is the magnetic and J the angular momentum of the body. Existing theories do not explain such a correlation, and it may be an evidence for some new fundamental interaction.

Pulse Phase

We theoretically study pulse phase and helicity effects on ultrafast magnetic field generation in intense bichromatic circularly polarized laser fields. Simulations are performed on the aligned molecular ion H2+ from numerical solutions of corresponding time-dependent Schrödinger equations. We demonstrate how electron coherent resonant excitation influences the phase and helicity of the optically induced magnetic field generation. The dependence of the generated magnetic field on the pulse phase arises from the interference effect between multiple excitation and ionization pathways, and is shown to be sensitive to molecular alignment and laser polarization. Molecular resonant excitation induces coherent ring electron currents, giving enhancement or suppression of the phase dependence. Pulse helicity effects control laser-induced electron dynamics in bichromatic circular polarization excitation. These phenomena are demonstrated by a molecular attosecond photoionization model and coherent electron current theory. The results offer a guiding principle for generating ultrafast magnetic fields and for studying coherent electron dynamics in complex molecular systems.

Polarized Radiation

Microwave response of a two-dimensional (2D) electron stripe, supplied by two semi-infinite side contacts, is theoretically studied taking into account retardation and radiative effects. Absorption spectra of the stripe are calculated as a function of the microwave frequency ω, magnetic field B, parameters of the 2D electron gas and of the contacts. It is shown that the contacts substantially modify the position, the linewidth and the strength of the absorption resonances, leading for instance to the inversion of the ab-sorption maxima of the right and left circularly polarized radiation in magnetic fields.

Abstract. A Mars-orbiting sub-millimeter sensor can be used to retrieve the magnetic field at low altitudes over large areas of significant planetary crustal magnetism of the surface of Mars from measurements of circularly polarized radiation emitted by the 368 GHz ground-state molecular oxygen absorption line. We design a full retrieval system for one example orbit to show the expected accuracies on the magnetic field components that one realization of such a Mars satellite mission could achieve. For one set of measurements around a tangent profile, we find that the two horizontal components of the magnetic field can be measured at about 200 nT error with a vertical resolution of around 4 km from 6 up to 70 km in tangent altitude. The error is similar regardless of the true strength of the magnetic field, and it can be reduced by repeated measurements over the same area. The method and some of its potential pitfalls are described and discussed.
