Volatile transport modeling on Triton with new observational constraints
T. Bertrand, E. Lellouch, B. J. Holler +18
Neptune's moon Triton shares many similarities with Pluto, including volatile cycles of N2, CH4 and CO, and represents a benchmark case for the study of surface-atmosphere interact…
Positive Ion Chemistry in an N-CH Plasma Discharge: Key Precursors to the Growth of Titan Tholins
David Dubois, Nathalie Carrasco, Lora Jovanovic +3
Titan is unique in the solar system as it hosts a dense atmosphere mainly made of N and CH. Cassini-Huygens revealed the presence of an intense atmospheric photochemistry i…
Sodium and Potassium Signatures of Volcanic Satellites Orbiting Close-in Gas Giant Exoplanets
Apurva V. Oza, Robert E. Johnson, Emmanuel Lellouch +12
Extrasolar satellites are generally too small to be detected by nominal searches. By analogy to the most active body in the Solar System, Io, we describe how sodium (Na I) and pota…
The Fundamental Vibrational Frequencies and Spectroscopic Constants of the Dicyanoamine Anion, NCNCN (CN): Quantum Chemical Analysis for Astrophysical and Planetary Environments
David Dubois, Ella Sciamma-O'Brien, Ryan Fortenberry
Detecting anions in space has relied on a strong collaboration between theoretical and laboratory analyses to measure rotational spectra and spectroscopic constants to high accurac…
Nitrogen-containing Anions and Tholin Growth in Titan's Ionosphere: Implications for Cassini CAPS-ELS Observations
David Dubois, Nathalie Carrasco, Jérémy Bourgalais +4
The Cassini Plasma Spectrometer (CAPS) Electron Spectrometer (ELS) instrument onboard Cassini revealed an unexpected abundance of negative ions above 950 km in Titan's ionosphere.…
In situ Investigation of Neutrals Involved in the Formation of Titan Tholins
David Dubois, Nathalie Carrasco, Marie Petrucciani +3
The Cassini Mission has greatly improved our understanding of the dynamics and chemical processes occurring in Titan's atmosphere. It has also provided us with more insight into th…
