Space Science Reviews Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

This paper assesses our current understanding of the solar wind interaction with Venus in light of developments since the last major reviews were published in 1983. Suggestions for making further progress in the area of solar wind interactions with planetary atmospheres and ionospheres are offered based on the available observations and techniques, and from the viewpoint of forthcoming missions to Mars.
