巴黎索邦大学的研究团队首次成功模拟了火星上Arsia Mons火山附近每日出现的超过1000英里长云的形成机制1。这种被称为Arsia Mons Elongated Cloud(AMEC)的现象自2018年被探针记录以来一直未能得到解释1。
研究表明,该云的形成可能由从未在任何行星大气中直接观测到的物理过程驱动1。领导此项研究的巴黎索邦大学行星科学家Jorge Hernández-Bernal表示:"我们发现需要纳入一些奇异物理…这些物理虽然出现在教科书中,但被视为理论性的,通常认为不会在自然中发生。它肯定还没有被付诸行动过。"1
Scientists have successfully simulated the formation mechanism of an enormous daily cloud observed near Mars's Arsia Mons volcano, potentially unveiling physical processes never directly observed in any planetary atmosphere.1 The cloud, known as the Arsia Mons Elongated Cloud (AMEC), stretches more than 1,000 miles in length—roughly the distance between New York and Kansas City—and has puzzled researchers since its initial detection by spacecraft in 2018.1
The research, led by planetary scientist Jorge Hernández-Bernal from Paris-Sorbonne University, reveals that the cloud's formation may be driven by exotic physics previously confined to theory.1 "We found that we need to incorporate some strange physics," Hernández-Bernal explained. "These are physics that appear in textbooks but are viewed as theoretical, usually thought not to occur in nature. It's certainly never been put into action before."1
