Observatoire de Paris, Paris, France May INTERNATIONAL MERCURY WATCH

An informal consortium of observers using remote sensing techniques to conduct campaign- focused studies of the source regions and morphology patterns of Mercury’s exosphere. Mission Statement INTERNATIONAL MERCURY WATCH

Teams of Observers from Japan, France, Italy and USA Observations primarily groundbased using sodium emissions. New opportunities from spacebased imagers. Organized as part of PHEBUS on the BepiColombo Mission. Near-term relevance to MESSENGER Mission. INTERNATIONAL MERCURY WATCH

Scientific Goals and Objectives Identify the spatial and temporal scales of source regions for Mercury’s exosphere. Combine multi-technique observations to constrain uncertainties inherent in single-parameter observations. Characterize solar radiation acceleration effects upon sodium atoms in exospheric tail at all points in Mercury’s orbit. Use case-study data sets to constrain models of Mercury’s exosphere. Provide timely input to BepiColombo and MESSENGER colleagues and mission planners. INTERNATIONAL MERCURY WATCH

Observing Strategies Participating teams make observations according to their own plans and objectives throughout each year (with support from national sources). Participating teams agree upon at least one Joint Observing Period each year, typically spanning ~1 week. This plan provides data sets appropriate for studies of long-term variability and shorter- term case-studies. INTERNATIONAL MERCURY WATCH

Presentation of Results Encourage individual teams to present and publish single data set results. Encourage and coordinate case-study presentations and publications of campaign-mode, multi-diagnostic results. INTERNATIONAL MERCURY WATCH
