This project will investigate the electrical properties of the Venusian lower atmosphere and their consequences for clouds, drawing particularly on the in-atmosphere electrical measurements made by the Venera 13 and 14 landers during their descents in March 1982. These landers carried sensors recording the electric current flowing to a point electrode, from which the existence of charged aerosol layers is implied. Further interpretation of these results requires a detailed understanding of the operation of the sensors, and modelling of the Venusian ion-aerosol-droplet environment which this project will undertake. It will also evaluate new electrical sensors for a future mission to Venus, which has become more likely due to the phosphine discovery.

该项目将研究金星低层大气的电特性及其对云层的影响，特别利用金星 13 号和 14 号着陆器在 1982 年 3 月下降期间进行的大气内电测量。这些着陆器携带的传感器记录流向点电极的电流，从中暗示带电气溶胶层的存在。对这些结果的进一步解释需要详细了解传感器的操作以及该项目将进行的金星离子气溶胶液滴环境的建模。它还将评估未来金星任务的新电气传感器，由于磷化氢的发现，金星任务的可能性变得更大。
