Seasonal variations of chemical species and haze in Titan's upper atmosphere
Siteng Fan, Daniel Zhao, Cheng Li +3
Seasonal variation is significant in Titan's atmosphere due to the large change of solar insolation resulting from Titan's 26.7° axial tilt relative to the plane of Saturn's orbit.…
Constraints on the Microphysics of Pluto's Photochemical Haze from New Horizons Observations
Peter Gao, Siteng Fan, Michael L. Wong +12
The New Horizons flyby of Pluto confirmed the existence of hazes in its atmosphere. Observations of a large high- to low- phase brightness ratio, combined with the blue color of th…
High Temperature Photochemistry in the Atmosphere of HD189733b
Michael R. Line, Mao-Chang Liang, Yuk L. Yung
Recent infrared spectroscopy of hot exoplanets is beginning to reveal their atmospheric composition. Deep with in the planetary atmosphere, the composition is controlled by thermoc…
Water vapour in the atmosphere of a transiting extrasolar planet
Giovanna Tinetti, Alfred Vidal-Madjar, Mao-Chang Liang +10
Water is predicted to be among, if not the most abundant molecular species after hydrogen in the atmospheres of close-in extrasolar giant planets (hot-Jupiters) Several attempts ha…
Photolytically generated aerosols in the mesosphere and thermosphere of Titan
Mao-Chang Liang, Yuk L. Yung, Donald E. Shemansky
Analysis of the Cassini Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (UVIS) stellar and solar occultations at Titan to date include 12 species: N (nitrogen), CH (methane), CH…
Infrared Transmission Spectra for Extrasolar Giant Planets
G. Tinetti, M. C. Liang, A. Vidal-Madjar +3
Among the hot Jupiters that transit their parent stars known to date, the two best candidates to be observed with transmission spectroscopy in the mid-infrared (MIR) are HD189733b…
