Evolution and Observable Properties of Rocky Planet Atmospheres
Marie-Luise Steinmeyer, Lena Noack, Philipp Baumeister +9
This review summarizes current knowledge of rocky exoplanet atmospheres, covering their formation, escape processes, long‑term interaction with the surface and interior, and the ro…
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…
Imaging Venus-like Worlds: Spectral, Polarimetric, and UV Diagnostics for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Stephen R. Kane, Kimberly M. Bott, Kenneth E. Goodis Gordon +15
Understanding planetary habitability requires a comparative approach that explores the divergent evolutionary outcomes of Earth and Venus. The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) wi…
Prediction of sulphate hazes in the lower Venus atmosphere
Peter Woitke, Manuel Scherf, Christiane Helling +8
We study the amount, size distribution and material composition of (sub-)mic aerosol particles in the lower Venus atmosphere < 50 km. Our GGchem phase-equilibrium model predicts me…
Eta-Earth Revisited I: A Formula for Estimating the Maximum Number of Earth-like Habitats
Helmut Lammer, Manuel Scherf, Laurenz SproÃ
In this hypothesis article, we discuss the basic requirements of planetary environments where aerobe organisms can grow and survive, including atmospheric limitations of millimeter…
