Where does Titan Sand Come From: Insight from Mechanical Properties of Titan Sand Candidates
Xinting Yu, Sarah M. Hörst, Chao He +2
Extensive equatorial linear dunes exist on Titan, but the origin of the sand, which appears to be organic, is unknown. We used nanoindentation to study the mechanical properties of…
Photochemical Haze Formation in the Atmospheres of super-Earths and mini-Neptunes
Chao He, Sarah M. Horst, Nikole K. Lewis +8
UV radiation can induce photochemical processes in exoplanet atmospheres and produce haze particles. Recent observations suggest that haze and/or cloud layers could be present in t…
Laboratory Simulations of Haze Formation in the Atmospheres of super-Earths and mini-Neptunes: Particle Color and Size Distribution
Chao He, Sarah M. Horst, Nikole K. Lewis +7
Super-Earths and mini-Neptunes are the most abundant types of planets among the ~3500 confirmed exoplanets, and are expected to exhibit a wide variety of atmospheric compositions.…
