Photochemistry of HCl in the martian atmosphere

Icarus, 2022
The recent discovery of HCl on Mars (Korablev et al. 2021, Olsen et al. 2021) indicates its strong seasonal variations and correlation with dust. To study this idea, we develop photochemical models for summer midlatitudes at aphelion and perihelion. We assume that HCl is formed in heterogeneous reactions of FeCl3 and/or NaCl in the dust with H, and the

Martian Atmospheric Erosion Rates

Science, 2007
Mars was once wet but is now dry, and the fate of its ancient carbon dioxide atmosphere is one of the biggest puzzles in martian planetology. We have measured the current loss rate due to the solar wind interaction for different species: Q(O + ) = 1.6·10 23 per second = 4 grams per second (g ...

A Photochemical Model of the Martian Atmosphere

Icarus, 1994
The factors governing the amounts of CO, O2, and O3 in the martian atmosphere are investigated using a minimally constrained, one-dimensional photochemical model. We find that the incorporation of temperature-dependent CO2 absorption cross sections leads to an enhancement in the water photolysis rate, increasing the abundance of OH radicals to the ...
