Ice state evolution during spring in Richardson crater, Mars
François Andrieu, Frédéric Schmidt, Sylvain Douté +1
The Martian climate is governed by an annual cycle, that results in the condensation of CO ice during winter, up to a meter thick at the pole and thousands of kilometers in e…
Martian zeolites as a source of atmospheric methane
Olivier Mousis, Jean-Marc Simon, Jean-Pierre Bellat +7
The origin of the martian methane is still poorly understood. A plausible explanation is that methane could have been produced either by hydrothermal alteration of basaltic crust o…
Early Mars volcanic sulfur storage in the cryosphere and formation of transient SO2-rich atmospheres during the Hesperian
F. Schmidt, E. Chassefière, F. Tian +3
In a previous paper (Chassefière et al., Icarus 223, 878-891, 2013), we have shown that most volcanic sulfur released to early Mars atmosphere could have been trapped in the cryosp…
Methane clathrates in the Solar System
Olivier Mousis, Eric Chassefière, Nils G. Holm +8
We review the reservoirs of methane clathrates that may exist in the different bodies of the Solar System. Methane was formed in the interstellar medium prior to having been embedd…
Outgassing History and Escape of the Martian Atmosphere and Water Inventory
H. Lammer, E. Chassefière, Ö. Karatekin +11
The evolution and escape of the martian atmosphere and the planet's water inventory can be separated into an early and late evolutionary epoch. The first epoch started from the pla…
On the abundances of noble and biologically relevant gases in Lake Vostok, Antarctica
Olivier Mousis, Azzedine Lakhlifi, Sylvain Picaud +2
Motivated by the possibility of comparing theoretical predictions of Lake Vostok's composition with future in situ measurements, we investigate the composition of clathrates that a…
Exoplanet Characterization and the Search for Life
J. Kasting, W. Traub, A. Roberge +119
Over 300 extrasolar planets (exoplanets) have been detected orbiting nearby stars. We now hope to conduct a census of all planets around nearby stars and to characterize their atmo…
