Lightning detection in planetary atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesWeather, 2016
Lightning in planetary atmospheres is now a well‐established concept. Here we discuss the available detection techniques for, and observations of, planetary lightning by spacecraft, planetary landers and, increasingly, sophisticated terrestrial radio ...

Infrared spectroscopy of planetary atmospheres [PDF]

open access: greenComptes Rendus. Physique, 2005
Abstract Spectroscopy is at the root of modern planetology, in that it gives access remotely to the possibility to analyze the physical properties of planets. Today, the spectacular advance in techniques and models available to planetology reach an accuracy giving access to new domains in planetary physics, as meteorology, physico-chemical processes,

Meteoric material—an important component of planetary atmospheres [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2002
Interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) interact with all planetary atmospheres and leave their imprint as perturbations of the background atmospheric chemistry and structure. They lead to layers of metal ions that can become the dominant positively charged

The Physics of Falling Raindrops in Diverse Planetary Atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2021
The evolution of a single raindrop falling below a cloud is governed by fluid dynamics and thermodynamics fundamentally transferable to planetary atmospheres beyond modern Earth's.

Planetary atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesMeteorological Applications, 2010
AbstractPlanetary meteorologists seek to understand the origin and evolution of the family of planets that orbit the Sun, to investigate the stability of their atmospheres and to compare the surface environment and climate with the Earth. The radiative, dynamical and chemical processes in Earth's atmosphere all have analogues on the other planets: by ...

A simulation chamber for absorption spectroscopy in planetary atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2021
A novel simulation chamber, PASSxS (Planetary Atmosphere Simulation System for Spectroscopy), has been developed for absorption measurements performed with a Fourier transform spectrometer (FTS) and, possibly, a cavity ring-down (CRD) spectrometer with ...

Quantifying the Key Factors Affecting the Escape of Planetary Atmospheres

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The habitability of Earth-like planets is an increasingly important subject in astrophysics and in planetary sciences. Atmospheric escape plays a vital role in the evolution of the habitability of Earth-like planets.

Planetary Atmospheric Electricity [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2008
This volume presents our contemporary understanding of atmospheric electricity at Earth and in other solar system atmospheres. It is written by experts in terrestrial atmospheric electricity and planetary scientists. Many of the key issues related to planetary atmospheric electricity are discussed. The physics presented in this book includes ionisation
