The Evolution of Stellar Rotation and the hydrogen atmospheres of habitable-zone Terrestrial Planets
C. P. Johnstone, M. Güdel, A. Stökl +7
Terrestrial planets formed within gaseous protoplanetary disks can accumulate significant hydrogen envelopes. The evolution of such an atmosphere due to XUV driven evaporation depe…
Extreme hydrodynamic atmospheric loss near the critical thermal escape regime
N. V. Erkaev, H. Lammer, P. Odert +2
By considering martian-like planetary embryos inside the habitable zone of solar-like stars we study the behavior of the hydrodynamic atmospheric escape of hydrogen for small value…
Origin and Stability of Exomoon Atmospheres - Implications for Habitability
H. Lammer, S. -C. Schiefer, I. Juvan +7
We study the origin and escape of catastrophically outgassed volatiles (HO, CO) from exomoons with Earth-like densities and masses of , and $…
Atmosphere expansion and mass loss of close-orbit giant exoplanets heated by stellar XUV: I. Modeling of hydrodynamic escape of upper atmospheric material
I. F. Shaikhislamov, M. L. Khodachenko, Yu. L. Sasunov +3
In the present series of papers we propose a consistent description of the mass loss process. To study the effects of intrinsic magnetic field of a close-orbit giant exoplanet (so-…
Stellar wind induced soft X-ray emission from close-in exoplanets
K. G. Kislyakova, L. Fossati, C. P. Johnstone +3
In this paper, we estimate the X-ray emission from close-in exoplanets. We show that the Solar/Stellar Wind Charge Exchange Mechanism (SWCX) which produces soft X-ray emission is v…
Characterising exoplanets and their environment with UV transmission spectroscopy
L. Fossati, V. Bourrier, D. Ehrenreich +36
Exoplanet science is now in its full expansion, particularly after the CoRoT and Kepler space missions that led us to the discovery of thousands of extra-solar planets. The last de…
