“…The Electromagnetic Analyzer (EMA) is a sensor integrated into the Dust Complex (DC) and was designed for investigating electromagnetic radiation generated by discharges of dust particles during the dynamics of Martian dust storms as part of the ExoMars spacecraft (Zakharov et al, 2022). Developed to address the unique challenges of the Martian environment, the EMA device allows for measurements of electromagnetic emissions, including microdischarges, with high sensitivity.…”

The upper atmosphere, comprising the mesosphere and thermosphere, is intricately influenced by various atmospheric and magnetospheric impacts. Various atmospheric waves excited in the troposphere can propagate into the mesosphere-thermosphere (M-T) region, altering its dynamics. Additionally, large-scale disturbances in the middle atmosphere, such as sudden stratospheric warming and geomagnetic disturbances induced by solar activity, affect the upper atmosphere. To better understand these complex processes, observations from multiple platforms and instruments, along with modeling studies, are necessary. This study presents experimental investigations into the electromagnetic signatures generated by atmospheric discharge conditions, including breakdown events and interactions of charged dust particles. A vacuum chamber was used to simulate upper atmospheric conditions. An electromagnetic signal analyzer (EMA) registered signals generated from the atmospheric discharge and the electromagnetic signature of charged dust particles. The results of the experimental investigations revealed distinctive electromagnetic processes occurring during breakdown events and charged particle interactions within Earth’s atmosphere. Signals recorded by the electromagnetic signal analyzer provided valuable insights into the characteristics of atmospheric discharge conditions and the behavior of charged dust particles. The findings contribute to our understanding of the complex interactions in the upper atmosphere. Further analysis of the results highlights the significance of the atmospheric discharge, electromagnetic processes, and dust particle interactions in shaping the dynamics of this region. The experimental approach presented in this study offers a valuable tool for studying atmospheric processes and their implications for space weather dynamics.

Scientific objectives, instruments, and measurement program of the scientific instrumentation of the Kazachok stationary landing platform of the State Corporation Roscosmos and the European Space Agency (ESA) ExoMars-2022 project are presented. The scientific objectives of research on the landing platform included the long-term climate monitoring, the studies of the atmospheric composition, the mechanisms for dust lifting and related electrical phenomena, atmosphere–surface interactions, the subsurface water abundance, monitoring the radiation situation, and the study of Mars internal structure. To address these problems, 11 Russian and two European instruments with a total mass of 45 kg were built, tested and integrated into the spacecraft. These include a television camera system, meteorological complexes, a suite for studying dust and related electrical phenomena, optical spectrometers and an analytical complex for studying the atmospheric composition, a microwave radiometer, the neutron and gamma spectrometers for surface research, a seismometer, magnetometers and a Mars proper motion experiment to study its internal structure. Although the ExoMars-2022 project has been discontinued, the scientific objectives of the landing platform have not lost their relevance, and the technical solutions and developments implemented in scientific equipment are of interest and promising for further Mars exploration.
