| 内容記述 | The Magnetic Properties Experiments were designed to investigate the properties of the airborne dust in the Martian atmosphere. A preferred interpretation of previous experiments (Viking and Pathfinder) was that the airborne dust is primarily composed by composite silicate particles containing as a minor constituent the mineral maghemite (gamma-Fe2O3). In this abstract we show how the magnetic properties experiments on Spirit and Opportunity provide information on the distribution of magnetic mineral(s) in the dust on Mars, with emphasis on results from Opportunity. |
