Lunar Samples are Time Capsules of the Sun

Prabal Saxena, Natalie Curran, Heather Graham

The Heliophysics Decadal survey should embrace the coming opportunity of sustained lunar surface exploration and facilitate cross-disciplinary efforts to unlock the secrets of the…

Simulating Reflected Light Exoplanet Spectra of the Promising Direct Imaging Target, Andromedae d, with a New, Fast Sampling Method Using the Planetary Spectrum Generator

Prabal Saxena, Geronimo L. Villanueva, Neil T. Zimmerman +2

Simulations of exoplanet albedo profiles are key to planning and interpreting future direct imaging observations. In this paper we demonstrate the use of the Planetary Spectrum Gen…

TRAPPIST Habitable Atmosphere Intercomparison (THAI) workshop report

Thomas J. Fauchez, Martin Turbet, Denis E. Sergeev +31

The era of atmospheric characterization of terrestrial exoplanets is just around the corner. Modeling prior to observations is crucial in order to predict the observational challen…

Lifetime of a transient atmosphere produced by Lunar Volcanism

Orenthal J. Tucker, Rosemary M. Killen, Robert E. Johnson +1

Early in the Moon's history volcanic outgassing may have produced a periodic millibar level atmosphere (Needham and Kring, 2017). We examined the relevant atmospheric escape proces…

Tidal Dissipation in Dual-Body, Highly Eccentric, and Non-synchronously Rotating Systems: Applications to Pluto-Charon and the Exoplanet TRAPPIST-1e

Joe P. Renaud, Wade G. Henning, Prabal Saxena +4

Using the Andrade-derived Sundberg-Cooper rheology, we apply several improvements to the secular tidal evolution of TRAPPIST-1e and the early history of Pluto-Charon under the simp…

Sodium and Potassium Signatures of Volcanic Satellites Orbiting Close-in Gas Giant Exoplanets

Apurva V. Oza, Robert E. Johnson, Emmanuel Lellouch +12

Extrasolar satellites are generally too small to be detected by nominal searches. By analogy to the most active body in the Solar System, Io, we describe how sodium (Na I) and pota…
