The impact of electron precipitation on Earth's thermospheric NO production and the drag of LEO satellites
M. Scherf, S. Krauss, G. Tsurikov +6
We investigate the response of space weather events on Earth's upper atmosphere over the polar regions by studying their effect on the drag of the CHAMP and GRACE satellites. Incre…
Upper atmosphere dynamics and drivers of volatiles loss from terrestrial-type (exo)planets
Daria Kubyshkina, Michael J. Way, Iannis Dandouras +7
Volatile loss from exoplanetary atmospheres and its possible implications for the longevity of habitable surface conditions is a topic of vigorous debate currently. The vast majori…
Solar Transient Recognition Using Deep Learning (STRUDL) for heliospheric imager data
Maike Bauer, Justin Le Louëdec, Tanja Amerstorfer +3
Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) are space weather phenomena capable of causing significant disruptions to both space- and ground-based infrastructure. The timely and accurate detecti…
The Exosphere as a Boundary: Origin and Evolution of Airless Bodies in the Inner Solar System and Beyond Including Planets with Silicate Atmospheres
H. Lammer, M. Scherf, Y. Ito +6
In this review we discuss all the relevant solar/stellar radiation and plasma parameters and processes that act together in the formation and modification of atmospheres and exosph…
Evolution of the Earth's Polar Outflow From Mid-Archean to Present
K. G. Kislyakova, C. P. Johnstone, M. Scherf +5
The development of habitable conditions on Earth is tightly connected to the evolution of its atmosphere which is strongly influenced by atmospheric escape. We investigate the evol…
Close-in sub-Neptunes reveal the past rotation history of their host stars: atmospheric evolution of planets in the HD3167 and K2-32 planetary systems
Daria Kubyshkina, Patricio Cubillos, Luca Fossati +7
Planet atmospheric escape induced by high-energy stellar irradiation is a key phenomenon shaping the structure and evolution of planetary atmospheres. Therefore, the present-day pr…
Aeronomical constraints to the minimum mass and maximum radius of hot low-mass planets
L. Fossati, N. V. Erkaev, H. Lammer +7
Stimulated by the discovery of a number of close-in low-density planets, we generalise the Jeans escape parameter taking hydrodynamic and Roche lobe effects into account. We furthe…
Origin and Loss of nebula-captured hydrogen envelopes from "sub"- to "super-Earths" in the habitable zone of Sun-like stars
H. Lammer, A. Stökl, N. V. Erkaev +6
We investigate the origin and loss of captured hydrogen envelopes from protoplanets between `sub-Earth'-like bodies of 0.1 up to `super-Earths' with 5 in th…
Escape of the martian protoatmosphere and initial water inventory
N. V. Erkaev, H. Lammer, L. Elkins-Tanton +8
Latest research in planet formation indicate that Mars formed within a few million years (Myr) and remained a planetary embryo that never grew to a more massive planet. It can also…
