The Pluto system: Initial results from its exploration by New Horizons
S. A. Stern, F. Bagenal, K. Ennico +148
The Pluto system was recently explored by NASA's New Horizons spacecraft, making closest approach on 14 July 2015. Pluto's surface displays diverse landforms, terrain ages, albedos…
Saturn's Seasonally Changing Atmosphere: Thermal Structure, Composition and Aerosols
Leigh N. Fletcher, Thomas K. Greathouse, Julianne I. Moses +2
The longevity of Cassini's exploration of Saturn's atmosphere (a third of a Saturnian year) means that we have been able to track the seasonal evolution of atmospheric temperatures…
Ionized Gas Kinematics at High Resolution V: [NeII], Multiple Clusters, High Efficiency Star Formation and Blue Flows in He 2-10
Sara C. Beck, Jean L. Turner, John Lacy +1
We measured the m [NeII] line in the dwarf starburst galaxy He 2-10 with the high-resolution spectrometer TeXeS on the NASA IRTF. The data cube has diffraction-limited spati…
Uncertainty for calculating transport on Titan: a probabilistic description of bimolecular diffusion parameters
Sylvain Plessis, Damon McDougall, Kathy Mandt +2
Bimolecular diffusion coefficients are important parameters used by atmospheric models to calculate altitude profiles of minor constituents in an atmosphere. Unfortunately, laborat…
Thirty Meter Telescope International Observatory Detailed Science Case 2024
Warren Skidmore, Bob Kirshner, David Andersen +168
The Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) International Observatory (TIO) will be a revolutionary leap forward in astronomical observing capabilities, enabling us to address some of the mos…
2D photochemical modeling of Saturn's stratosphere. Part I: Seasonal variation of atmospheric composition without meridional transport
Vincent Hue, Thibault Cavalié, Michel Dobrijevic +2
Saturn's axial tilt of 26.7° produces seasons in a similar way as on Earth. Both the stratospheric temperature and composition are affected by this latitudinally varying insolation…
