英文摘要The structure of the magnetized ionosphere of Venus is investigated using the magnetometer and plasma (Analyzer of Space Plasmas and Energetic Atoms 4) data from the Venus Express spacecraft. Observations surveying the low-altitude (h <= 250 km) ionosphere were made at solar zenith angles >= 75 degrees. The magnetic field permeating the Venus ionosphere at solar minimum conditions increases at low altitudes and reaches a maximum at an altitude of similar to 200 km. The orientation of the magnetic field in the peak is almost insensible to the magnetic field direction in the solar wind. For both sector polarities of the IMF, the magnetic field vector has a dominant dawn-dusk component. The topology of the magnetic field also occurs different for different signs of the cross-flow component of the IMF revealing either a sudden straightening with liberation of the magnetic field stresses or a closing into a loop. We discuss different mechanisms of the peak formation including local magnetization, a weak intrinsic planetary field, a dipole field induced by eddy currents, a remnant origin, or giant flux ropes. All of them fail to explain most of the observed features. We suggest that a decoupling of ion and electron motion at low altitudes due to ion-neutral collisions results in currents which produce different field configurations depending on the IMF orientation.
