Formation of recurring slope lineae on Mars by rarefied gas-triggered granular flows
F. Schmidt, F. Andrieu, F. Costard +2
Active dark flows known as recurring slope lineae have been observed on the warmest slopes of equatorial Mars. The morphology, composition and seasonality of the lineae suggest a r…
An Insolation Activated Dust Layer on Mars
Caroline de Beule, Gerhard Wurm, Thorben Kelling +2
The illuminated dusty surface of Mars acts like a gas pump. It is driven by thermal creep at low pressure within the soil. In the top soil layer this gas flow has to be sustained b…
Tables of phase functions, opacities, albedos, equilibrium temperatures, and radiative accelerations of dust grains in exoplanets
Jan Budaj, Miroslav Kocifaj, Raquel Salmeron +1
There has been growing observational evidence for the presence of condensates in the atmospheres and/or comet-like tails of extrasolar planets. As a result, systematic and homogene…
Dust Ejection from Planetary Bodies by Temperature Gradients: Laboratory Experiments
Thorben Kelling, Gerhard Wurm, Miroslav Kocifaj +2
Laboratory experiments show that dusty bodies in a gaseous environment eject dust particles if they are illuminated. We find that even more intense dust eruptions occur when the li…
