Possible natural emissions detected by the Mars Express spacecraft
 Podgorný, Jakub ; Němec, František (advisor) ; Pitňa, Alexander (referee)
The presented thesis deals with detections of natural emissions by the MAR- SIS instrument on the Mars Express spacecraft. Frequency and time delay data of the radar intensities measured by this instrument ("ionograms") are analysed. We identify specific regions of these ionograms that do not correspond to any intensity increases related to the radar sounding of the Martian ionosphere. Within these intervals we select ionograms with a possible detection of light- ning emissions based on a predefined threshold criterion. These ionograms are then juxtaposed with relevant information on dust storms in the Martian at- mosphere. We further perform a detailed analysis of the dependence of mean ionogram intensities from all ionograms on relevant parameters. After the eli- mination of the principal dependence on the spacecraft altitude, we study long- term effects, such as the dependence on the solar longitude Ls, the solar zenith angle, the magnitude of crustal magnetic fields, and the F10.7 parameter. 1
