Altered Cosmic Organics as Venus' Ultraviolet Absorbers
Rakesh Mogul, Mikhail Yu. Zolotov, Michael J. Way +1
Venus' ultraviolet (UV) absorbers significantly contribute to the atmosphere's energy budget. However, the composition of these absorbers remains a mystery. Here, we show that mixt…
The CO Profile and Analytical Model for the Pioneer Venus Large Probe Neutral Mass Spectrometer
Rakesh Mogul, Sanjay S. Limaye, Michael. J. Way
We present a significantly updated CO altitude profile for Venus (64.2-0.9 km) and provide support for a potential deep lower atmospheric haze of particles (17 km and lower). W…
Venus' Mass Spectra Show Signs of Disequilibria in the Middle Clouds
Rakesh Mogul, Sanjay S. Limaye, M. J. Way +1
We present a re-examination of mass spectral data obtained from the Pioneer Venus Large Probe Neutral Mass Spectrometer. Our interpretations of differing trace chemical species are…
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…
Long-term variations of Venus' 365-nm albedo observed by Venus Express, Akatsuki, MESSENGER, and Hubble Space Telescope
Yeon Joo Lee, Kandis-Lea Jessup, Santiago Perez-Hoyos +16
An unknown absorber near the cloud top level of Venus generates a broad absorption feature from the ultraviolet (UV) to visible, peaking around 360 nm, and therefore plays a critic…
New cloud morphologies discovered on the Venus's night during Akatsuki
J. Peralta, A. Sánchez-Lavega, T. Horinouchi +8
During the years 2016 to 2018, the instruments Akatsuki/IR2 (JAXA) and IRTF/SpeX (NASA) acquired a large set of images at 1.74, 2.26 and 2.32 μm to study the nightside mid-to-lower…
