XUV exposed non-hydrostatic hydrogen-rich upper atmospheres of terrestrial planets. Part I: Atmospheric expansion and thermal escape
N. V. Erkaev, H. Lammer, P. Odert +6
The recently discovered low-density "super-Earths" Kepler-11b, Kepler-11f, Kepler-11d, Kepler-11e, and planets such as GJ 1214b represent most likely planets which are surrounded b…
XUV exposed, non-hydrostatic hydrogen-rich upper atmospheres of terrestrial planets II: Hydrogen coronae and ion escape
K. G. Kislyakova, H. Lammer, M. Holmström +8
We study the interactions between the stellar wind plasma flow of a typical M star, such as GJ 436, and hydrogen-rich upper atmospheres of an Earth-like planet and a "super-Earth"…
Probing the Blow-Off Criteria of Hydrogen-Rich "Super-Earths"
H. Lammer, N. V. Erkaev, P. Odert +3
The discovery of transiting "super-Earths" with inflated radii and known masses such as Kepler-11b-f, GJ 1214b and 55 Cnc e, indicates that these exoplanets did not lose their nebu…
The DWARF project: Eclipsing binaries - precise clocks to discover exoplanets
T. Pribulla, M. Vaňko, M. Ammler - von Eiff +53
We present a new observational campaign, DWARF, aimed at detection of circumbinary extrasolar planets using the timing of the minima of low-mass eclipsing binaries. The observation…
