I assume that you meant to write "magnetic field" there?
For Mars; atmospheric escape is mostly by thermal Jeans escape, which is not changed by the presence or absence of magnetic fields. There are nonthermal processes too, for which magnetic fields may matter.

Nonthermal plasma assisted desorption and conversion of captured CO2 from atmospheric air
CO2 capture and conversion are essential to mitigate the global climate crisis. However, sorbent regeneration frequently relies on the high-temperature thermal-driven process, making the integration of intermittent renewable energy into the process an inherent challenge.

For 30 hours, nonthermal plasma kept a Pt/CeO2 catalyst near 34.1% carbon monoxide conversion in the water-gas shift reaction. Thermal operation fell from 34.3% to 21.5% as surface species built up. doi.org/hb8m7b
Plasma approach keeps catalysts working for longer in hydrogen production
Scientists from the University of Manchester have shown how a plasma-based approach, using nonthermal plasma—an electrically energized gas often described as the fourth state of matter—can prevent catalyst deactivation in a key hydrogen production reaction, maintaining stable performance for 30 hours while also changing how the reaction proceeds at the molecular level.

The carbon dioxide has a higher molecular mass, so it has not all been lost yet.
