Checked, not settled
“During BepiColombo’s fourth Mercury flyby at 165 km altitude, SIXS observations found proton disappearance associated with magnetic shadowing and electron dropouts associated with a wide magnetic loss cone; the study concluded that sustained energetic-particle precipitation can occur on weakly magnetized rocky planets.”
