[IGPP Everyone] TODAY: Special Space Physics seminar, EPSS Faculty Candidate - Fri. 3/11, 3:30 PM PST - Planetary Magnetospheres and their interaction with the solar wind (J. Jasinski, JPL)

[Emmanuel V. Masongsong]

The EPSS Department is conducting a faculty search for a new tenure-track position in Space Physics. The six finalists will present at our Space Physics Seminar series as shown at the bottom of this email, both in-person in the Slichter Hall 3853 Conference Room (3rd floor), and streamed via Zoom. The talks will also be recorded for those unable to attend. Light refreshments and an opportunity to meet the speaker informally will follow after the talk on the Franz Patio. 

Your feedback on the talks and other interactions is valuable to the Search Committee. Kindly submit your comments via the survey link which will be sent via email (please contact Helen Carter, hcarter at epss.ucla.edu, if you did not receive it and would like to contribute).

Planetary Magnetospheres and their interaction with the solar wind 

Jamie Jasinski,

It is important to understand the local space plasma environment of any planetary body because it can affect the planet itself. The interaction of a planetary magnetosphere with the solar wind varies for different planets throughout the solar system. This seminar will discuss the magnetosphere of Mercury and how its space environment affects its exosphere and surface. We will also explore the solar wind interaction at the Outer Planets, and how these magnetospheres differ from each other and from the inner solar system planets. This seminar will include discussion of recent results from NASA’s MESSENGER, Cassini and Voyager 2 spacecraft.
