Magnetic Field Measurements near Mars

Magnetic Field Measurements near Mars

E J Smith et al. Science. .

Abstract

During the encounter between Mariner IV and Mars on 14-15 July, no magnetic effect that could be definitely associated with the planet was evident in the magnetometer data. This observation implies that the Martian magnetic dipole moment is, at most, 3 x 10(-4) times that of the earth.
