abstract = {Schumann resonances are standing waves that oscillate in the electromagnetic cavity formed
between the conducting lower ionosphere and the surface of the planet. They have been measured in situ
only on Earth and Titan, although they are believed to exist on other planets like Mars. We report numerical
simulations of the Martian electromagnetic cavity, accounting for the day-night asymmetry and different
dust scenarios. It has been found that the resonances are more energetic on the nightside, the first
resonance is expected to be 9–14 Hz depending on the dust activity and to have low quality factors (Q ≃ 2).
This work serves as an input for the upcoming Exomars surface platform (launch 2020), who will attempt to
measure them for the first time.},
