Observations of Extreme ICME Ram Pressure Compressing Mercury's Dayside Magnetosphere to the Surface

Mercury's magnetosphere is known to be affected by enhanced ram pressures and magnetic fields inside interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs). Here we report detailed observations of an ICME compressing Mercury's dayside magnetosphere to the surface. A fast CME launched from the Sun o...
