Evolution of granular salty ice analogs for Europa: Sublimation and Irradiation

Rafael Ottersberg, Antoine Pommerol, Linus Leo Stöckli +5

We study the evolution of the Vis-NIR reflectance spectrum of salty granular ice analog samples in a simulation chamber under conditions relevant to the surface of Europa. A novel…

IBEX Observations of Elastic Scattering of Interstellar Helium by Solar Wind Particles

H. Islam, N. Schwadron, E. Moebius +8

The IBEX-Lo instrument on the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) mission observes primary and secondary interstellar helium in its 4 lowest energy steps. Observations of these h…

VIS spectroscopy of NaCl-water ice mixtures irradiated with 1 and 5 keV electrons under Europa_s conditions: Formation of colour centres and Na colloids

Romain Cerubini, Antoine Pommerol, André Galli +3

Recent laboratory efforts and telescopic observations of Europa have shown the relevance of a yellow colouration of sodium chloride (NaCl) caused by crystal defects generated by ir…

Interstellar neutral helium in the heliosphere from IBEX observations. VI. The He density and the ionization state in the Very Local Interstellar Matter

M. Bzowski, A. Czechowski, P. C. Frisch +14

Interstellar neutral gas atoms penetrate the heliopause and reach 1~au, where they are detected by IBEX. The flow of neutral interstellar helium through the perturbed interstellar…

Energetic neutral atoms from the heliosheath as an additional population of neutral hydrogen in the inner heliosphere

M. Bzowski, A. Galli

Interstellar neutral hydrogen (ISN H) gas penetrates freely the heliopause. Inside the inner heliosheath, the charge-exchange interaction of this gas with the shocked solar wind an…

Surface charging of thick porous water ice layers relevant for ion sputtering experiments

A. Galli, A. Vorburger, A. Pommerol +6

We use a laboratory facility to study the sputtering properties of centimeter-thick porous water ice subjected to the bombardment of ions and electrons to better understand the for…

The Interstellar Neutral He haze in the heliosphere: what can we learn?

Justyna M. Sokół, M. Bzowski, M. A. Kubiak +7

Neutral interstellar helium has been observed by the Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) since 2009 with a signal-to-noise ratio well above 1000. Because of the geometry of the o…
