Herschel map of Saturn's stratospheric water, delivered by the plumes of Enceladus
T. Cavalié, V. Hue, P. Hartogh +13
Context. The origin of water in the stratospheres of Giant Planets has been an outstanding question ever since its first detection by ISO some 20 years ago. Water can originate fro…
On the orbital variability of Ganymede's atmosphere
Francois Leblanc, Apurva V. Oza, Ludivine Leclercq +5
Ganymede's atmosphere is produced by radiative interactions with its surface, sourced by the Sun and the Jovian plasma. The sputtered and thermally desorbed molecules are tracked i…
The origin and fate of O in Europa's ice: an atmospheric perspective
Robert E. Johnson, Apurva V. Oza, Francois Leblanc +2
The early prediction and subsequent detection of an O atmosphere on Europa, coupled with the discovery that Europa has an ocean under its ice mantle, has made this moon a prime…
Dusk Over Dawn O Asymmetry in Europa's Near-Surface Atmosphere
Apurva V. Oza, Francois Leblanc, Robert E. Johnson +4
The evolution of Europa's water-product exosphere over its 85-hour day, based on current models, has not been shown to exhibit any diurnal asymmetries. Here we simulate Europa's ex…
