📢 Postdoctoral position to map solar wind precipitation to the surface of Mercury using #BepiColombo data at the Swedish Institute of Space Physics (IRF)! Application Link: irf.varbi.com/en/what:job/jo… Application Deadline: 17 January 2025

Plasma, the so called "4th state of matter" has been measured by @BepiColombo Mass Spectrum Analyzer around Venus and Mercury. #AGU24 invited @lina_zhadid to give an overview of plasma heavy ions in both planetary environments at 11:20 in Independence F-H agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/mee…

Mercury's mantle may contain large amounts of exotic Ca-Mg-rich sulfide minerals. How would these affect the electrical conductivity of the mantle? Could they be detected by @BepiColombo? For answers, come to Pommier et al.'s eLightning presentation 8:57am. Theater 6 #AGU24.

When squeezed by the solar wind, how much does Mercury's core push back? Heyner et al. model changes in Mercury's global magnetic field under the high solar wind pressure of a strong CME, in prep. for low-altitude measurements in the southern hemisphere by @BepiColombo. #AGU24

Mercury lavas! 🌋 Why so sulfurous? Charge balance issues? Deprived of oxygen? Overly aggressive anions? Codependant parental magmas? Fischer et al. will provide NMR-based geochemical counciling at 8:54am, via eLightning presentation. Theater 6. There may be a copay. #AGU24

🥼☄️Melting meteorites to study Mercury's mantle and magmas? Boujibar et al. have done it and found interesting and new results about Ca and S on Mercury! Join them in Theater 6 at 8:51 for their #AGU24 eLightning presentation! agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/mee…

Jawin et al. have volcanic detective work to do! 🌋🔍 Did Mercury really change its volcanic style from effusive to explosive, or can evidence of ancient explosive volcanism be found? Catch their #AGU24 eLightning presentation at 08:48 in Theater 6 to solve the mystery!

📢Kamata and Kuramoto use new techniques to investigate Mercury's interior. Their calculations of Mercury's tidal responses reveal a high degree of melting in a deep layer. Find out more on Friday, 8:30 am in Poster Hall B-C! #AGU24 agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/mee…

Got smaller and more wrinkled as you aged? 👴👵 You’re not alone! Mercury has too, but by how much? Loveless and @FAULTSnPLANETS will tell you at their #AGU24 eLightning presentation at 08:45 on Fri in Theater 6 agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/mee…

🌡️Did you know that Mercury is the planet with the most extreme temperature fluctuations on its surface? Fleury et al. modeled Mercury thermal evolution and will show the effect of these extreme temperature condition in their #AGU24 eLightning presentation at 8:42 in Theater 6!

Searching for buried gold 🔍 👀. Kalski et al. seek to understand the local characteristics of the magnetic anomaly north of Caloris Basin. The find that the source of the anomaly may be present at depth. Come hear about it in #AGU24 eLightning Theater 6 at 8:39!

📸A picture is worth a thousand words, and the same is true for even quick planetary flybys! Come learn about @BepiColombo PHEBUS magnesium exosphere observations during the spacecraft's Mercury swingbys from Suzuki et al. at the #AGU24 eLightning Theater 6 at 8:36.

Nothing more interesting that highly reduced silicates! Gywn et al. experimentally investigate the effects of reduced Si on melt properties at high pressures and temperatures with applications to Mercury's mantle. Come learn more in Poster Hall B-C #AGU24 agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/mee…

💥Impressive! 💥@MERTISonBepi instrument on-board @BepiColombo defies all expectations and performs far better than required! Attend the eLightning presentation by @Planetguy_Bln et al. at 08:33 in Theater 6 to see the results of Moon, Venus and... Mercury flybys! #AGU24

🗣️🫢Want the latest (scientific) gossip from @BepiColombo? @sbesse33 et al. will reveal all in their invited eLightning presentation at 08:30 in Theater 6. Listen up for cruise results from @JAXA_MMO so far and upcoming science operations! 🛰️🛰️ #AGU24 agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/mee…

Lets learn about Caloris basin!☄️ Gosselin et al. will disucss their use of axisymmertic finite element models to explore the complex geophysical history of Mercury's big basin. Make sure to tune in at 4:51 pm in room Liberty I-K! #AGU24 agu.confex.com/agu/agu24/mee…

💥 Pew pew pew! 💥 Desprats et al. combine simulations of MLA data from @MESSENGER2011 and BELA data from @BepiColombo to estimate our improved knowledge of Mercury’s geodetic parameters, internal structure, and composition. Check out their poster at the #AGU24 poster hall!
