A long term study of Mars mesospheric clouds seen at twilight based on Mars Express VMC images
J. Hernandez-Bernal, A. Sanchez-Lavega, T. del Rio-Gaztelurrutia +5
We present the first systematic study of clouds observed during twilight on Mars. We analyze images obtained by the Visual Monitoring Camera (VMC) on Mars Express between 2007 and…
The 2018 Martian Global Dust Storm over the South Polar Region studied with MEx/VMC
J. Hernández-Bernal, A. Sánchez-Lavega, T. del Río-Gaztelurrutia +6
We study the 2018 Martian Global DustStorm (GDS 2018) over the Southern Polar Region using images obtained by the Visual Monitoring Camera (VMC) on board Mars Express during June a…
Dust particle size, shape, and optical depth during the 2018/MY34 Martian Global Dust Storm retrieved by MSL Curiosity rover navigation cameras
Hao Chen-Chen, Santiago Perez-Hoyos, Agustin Sanchez-Lavega
Martian planet-encircling dust storms or global dust storms (GDS), resulting from the combined influence of local and regional storms, are uncommon aperiodic phenomena: with an ave…
The size, shape, density and ring of the dwarf planet Haumea from a stellar occultation
J. L. Ortiz, P. Santos-Sanz, B. Sicardy +90
Among the four known transneptunian dwarf planets, Haumea is an exotic, very elongated, and fast rotating body. In contrast to the other dwarf planets, its size, shape, albedo, and…
A Long-lived Sharp Disruption on the Lower Clouds of Venus
J. Peralta, T. Navarro, C. W. Vun +19
Planetary-scale waves are thought to play a role in powering the yet-unexplained atmospheric superrotation of Venus. Puzzlingly, while Kelvin, Rossby and stationary waves manifest…
Fragmentation modelling of the August 2019 impact on Jupiter
Ramanakumar Sankar, Csaba Palotai, Ricardo Hueso +3
On 7th August 2019, an impact flash lasting s was observed on Jupiter. The video of this event was analysed to obtain the lightcurve and determine the energy release and ini…
