Abstract : As well as this effort using in situ data, MAVEN can
also constrain photochemical escape using remote sensing of the oxygen
corona with the Imaging Ultraviolet Spectrograph (IUVS) [12, 13], the Solar Energetic Particle (SEP)
instrument and the Solar Wind Ion Analyzer [14].
These multiple methods will eventually allow validation of photochemical escape from Mars and its dependence on solar and planetary conditions, enabling confident extrapolation back into the past
