Pulses in the Martian magnetosphere cause the solitary waves.
Through wave-particle interactions, these fluctuations regulate other particle activities such as particle energization, plasma loss, and transport.
Mars only has a mild magnetic field from its crustal magnetic sources, in contrast to Earth, which has a strong magnetic field to shield it from the Sun’s ionising solar winds.
As a result, single flows can be produced by the solar winds as they interact with the Martian atmosphere.
Teams had previously been unable to find these waves, despite scientists’ theories that they may be spotted.
