Impact of Cosmic Rays on Atmospheric Ion Chemistry and Spectral Transmission Features of TRAPPIST-1e
Konstantin Herbst, Andreas Bartenschlager, John Lee Grenfell +10
Ongoing observing projects like the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and future missions offer the chance to characterize Earth-like exoplanetary atmospheres. Thereby, M-dwarfs ar…
Atmospheric processes affecting methane on Mars
John Lee Grenfell, Fabian Wunderlich, Miriam Sinnhuber +6
It is currently uncertain as to whether methane exists on Mars. Data from the Curiosity Rover suggests a background methane concentration of a few tenths parts per billion whereas…
Mesospheric nitric oxide model from SCIAMACHY data
Stefan Bender, Miriam Sinnhuber, Patrick J. Espy +1
We present an empirical model for nitric oxide NO in the mesosphere (60--90 km) derived from SCIAMACHY (SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartoghra…
Proxima Centauri b: A Strong Case for including Cosmic-Ray-induced Chemistry in Atmospheric Biosignature Studies
M. Scheucher, K. Herbst, V. Schmidt +6
Due to its Earth-like minimum mass of 1.27 M and its close proximity to our Solar system, Proxima Centauri b is one of the most interesting exoplanets for habitability…
A New Model Suite to Determine the Influence of Cosmic Rays on (Exo)planetary Atmospheric Biosignatures -- Validation based on Modern Earth
Konstantin Herbst, John Lee Grenfell, Miriam Sinnhuber +8
The first opportunity to detect indications for life outside the Solar System may be provided already within the next decade with upcoming missions such as the James Webb Space Tel…
Retrieval of nitric oxide in the mesosphere from SCIAMACHY nominal limb spectra
Stefan Bender, Miriam Sinnhuber, Martin Langowski +1
We present a retrieval algorithm for nitric oxide (NO) number densities from measurements from the SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY (SCIAMACHY,…
Retrieval of nitric oxide in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere from SCIAMACHY limb spectra
Stefan Bender, Miriam Sinnhuber, John P. Burrows +3
We use the ultra-violet (UV) spectra in the range 230--300 nm from the SCanning Imaging Absorption spectroMeter for Atmospheric CHartographY (SCIAMACHY) to retrieve the nitric oxid…
