Loss and fractionation of noble gas isotopes and moderately volatile elements from planetary embryos and early Venus, Earth and Mars
H. Lammer, M. Scherf, H. Kurokawa +12
Here we discuss the current state of knowledge on how atmospheric escape processes can fractionate noble gas isotopes and moderately volatile rock-forming elements that populate pr…
Nitrogen Atmospheres of the Icy Bodies in the Solar System
M. Scherf, H. Lammer, N. V. Erkaev +3
This brief review will discuss the current knowledge on the origin and evolution of the nitrogen atmospheres of the icy bodies in the solar system, particularly of Titan, Triton an…
Escape and evolution of Titan's N atmosphere constrained by N/N isotope ratios
N. V. Erkaev, M. Scherf, S. E. Thaller +4
We apply a 1D upper atmosphere model to study thermal escape of nitrogen over Titan's history. Significant thermal escape should have occurred very early for solar EUV fluxes 100 t…
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…
