Chemistry of Silicate Atmospheres of Evaporating Super-Earths

Laura Schaefer, Bruce Fegley

We model the formation of silicate atmospheres on hot volatile-free super-Earths. Our calculations assume that all volatile elements such as H, C, N, S, and Cl have been lost from…

Volatile Element Chemistry during Metamorphism of Ordinary Chondritic Material and Some of its Implications for the Composition of Asteroids

Laura Schaefer, Bruce Fegley

We used chemical equilibrium calculations to model thermal metamorphism of ordinary chondritic material as a function of temperature, pressure, and trace element abundance and use…

Application of an Equilibrium Vaporization Model to the Ablation of Chondritic and Achondritic Meteoroids

Laura Schaefer, Bruce Fegley

We modeled equilibrium vaporization of chondritic and achondritic materials using the MAGMA code. We calculated both instantaneous and integrated element abundances of Na, Mg, Ca,…

Silicon Tetrafluoride on Io

Laura Schaefer, Bruce Fegley

Silicon tetrafluoride (SiF4) is observed in terrestrial volcanic gases and is predicted to be the major F - bearing species in low temperature volcanic gases on Io (Schaefer and Fe…

Alkali and Halogen Chemistry in Volcanic Gases on Io

Laura Schaefer, Bruce Fegley

We use chemical equilibrium calculations to model the speciation of alkalis and halogens in volcanic gases emitted on Io. The calculations cover wide temperature (500-2000 K) and p…

Predicted Abundances of Carbon Compounds in Volcanic Gases on Io

Laura Schaefer, Bruce Fegley

We use chemical equilibrium calculations to model the speciation of carbon in volcanic gases on Io. The calculations cover wide temperature (500-2000 K), pressure (10^-8 to 10^+2 b…
