Abstract

Global and three-dimensional hybrid simulations of the ionized environment of Mercury are used to investigate the effect of the quadrupolar component of the intrinsic planetary field on magnetic reconnection with the Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF), on the entry of solar wind ions in the Hermean magnetosphere and eventually their impacts on the planetary gound.
