Measurement of D/H and 13C/12C Ratios in Methane Ice on Eris and Makemake: Evidence for Internal Activity
W. M. Grundy, I. Wong, C. R. Glein +11
James Webb Space Telescope's NIRSpec infrared imaging spectrometer observed the outer solar system dwarf planets Eris and Makemake in reflected sunlight at wavelengths spanning 1 t…
Moderate D/H Ratios in Methane Ice on Eris and Makemake as Evidence of Hydrothermal or Metamorphic Processes in Their Interiors: Geochemical Analysis
Christopher R. Glein, William M. Grundy, Jonathan I. Lunine +7
Dwarf planets Eris and Makemake have surfaces bearing methane ice of unknown origin. D/H ratios were recently determined from James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations of Eris…
N accretion, metamorphism of organic nitrogen, or both processes likely contributed to the origin of Pluto's N
Christopher R. Glein
N plays a profound role in supporting processes on the surface and in the atmosphere of Pluto, yet the origin of Pluto's N remains a mystery. However, this may begin to cha…
JWST molecular mapping and characterization of Enceladus' water plume feeding its torus
G. L. Villanueva, H. B. Hammel, S. N. Milam +18
Enceladus is a prime target in the search for life in our solar system, having an active plume likely connected to a large liquid water subsurface ocean. Using the sensitive NIRSpe…
Early stages of Galilean moon formation in a water-depleted environment
Olivier Mousis, Antoine Schneeberger, Jonathan I. Lunine +3
A key feature of the Galilean satellite system is its monotonic decrease in bulk density with distance from Jupiter, indicating an ice mass fraction that is zero in the innermost m…
