A comparison of chemistry and dust cloud formation in ultracool dwarf model atmospheres

Ch. Helling, A. Ackerman, F. Allard +8

The atmospheres of substellar objects contain clouds of oxides, iron, silicates, and other refractory condensates. Water clouds are expected in the coolest objects. The opacity of…

Dust in Brown Dwarfs and Extra-solar Planets I. Chemical composition and spectral appearance of quasi-static cloud layers

Ch. Helling, P. Woitke, W. -F. Thi

We aim at understanding the formation of cloud layers in quasi-static substellar atmospheres. The time-dependent description presented in (Helling & Woitke 2006) is a kinetic model…

Consistent simulations of substellar atmospheres and non-equilibrium dust-cloud formation

Christiane Helling, Matthias Dehn, Peter Woitke +1

We aim to understand cloud formation in substellar objects. We combined the non-equilibrium, stationary cloud model of Helling, Woitke & Thi (2008; seed formation, growth, evaporat…

The Influence of Dust Formation Modelling on Na I and K I Line Profiles in Substellar Atmospheres

C. M. S. Johnas, Ch. Helling, M. Dehn +2

We aim to understand the correlation between cloud formation and alkali line formation in substellar atmospheres.We perform line profile calculations for Na I and K I based on the…

Too little radiation pressure on dust in the winds of oxygen-rich AGB stars

Peter Woitke

New dynamical models for dust-driven winds of oxygen-rich AGB stars are presented which include frequency-dependent Monte Carlo radiative transfer by means of a sparse opacity dist…
