The Solubility of N2 in High-pressure Ice and Its Consequent Outgassing Limitations in Water Worlds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Exoplanets with a few percent water mass fraction may host a high-pressure ice layer that separates the atmosphere from the interior. We investigate the role played by this layer in the transport of N _2 between the interior and the atmosphere.

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons as an Extraterrestrial Atmospheric Technosignature

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are prevalent in the Universe and interstellar medium but are primarily attributed to anthropogenic sources on Earth, such as fossil fuel combustion and firewood burning.

Global scale observations of atmospheric molecular hydrogen and its stable isotopic composition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
With average mixing ratios (χ) around 550 ppb (nmole/mole), molecular hydrogen (H2) is the most abundant reduced gas in our atmosphere after methane (CH4), but considerably less studied.
