Energy-limited escape revised
M. Salz, P. C. Schneider, S. Czesla +1
Gas planets in close proximity to their host stars experience photoevaporative mass loss. The energy-limited escape concept is generally used to derive estimates for the planetary…
Simulating the escaping atmospheres of hot gas planets in the solar neighborhood
M. Salz, S. Czesla, P. C. Schneider +1
Absorption of high-energy radiation in planetary thermospheres is believed to lead to the formation of planetary winds. The resulting mass-loss rates can affect the evolution, part…
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…
TPCI: The PLUTO-CLOUDY Interface
M. Salz, R. Banerjee, A. Mignone +3
We present an interface between the (magneto-) hydrodynamics code PLUTO and the plasma simulation and spectral synthesis code CLOUDY. By combining these codes, we constructed a new…
High-energy irradiation and mass loss rates of hot Jupiters in the solar neighborhood
M. Salz, P. C. Schneider, S. Czesla +1
Giant gas planets in close proximity to their host stars experience strong irradiation. In extreme cases photoevaporation causes a transonic, planetary wind and the persistent mass…
