The Interplay of Surface Composition, Mineralogy, and Physical Conditions That Affect the Surface Release Processes and Particle Environment of Mercury

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Mercury has a very tenuous atmosphere starting at the surface, which is referred to as a surface-bound exosphere, where there are no collisions between exospheric particles.

In situ, Surface-deployed Distributed Instruments for Planetary Science: Scientific Opportunities and Technology Feasibility

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
In this paper, we assess the scientific promise and technology feasibility of in situ distributed instruments for planetary surface and atmospheric science. A distributed instrument is an instrument designed to collect spatially and temporally correlated

Multiparameter Constraints on Empirical Infrasound Period-Yield Relations for Bolides and Implications for Planetary Defense

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
How effective are methods for estimating bolide energies from infrasound signal period-yield relationships? A single global period–energy relation can obscure significant variability introduced by parameters such as the atmospheric Doppler wind profile ...

Statistical Distributions of Plasma Density and Pressure in the Jovian Plasma Sheet

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Jovian plasma sheet is a key region of the Jovian magnetosphere populated by a mix of warm and hot plasma. It is the main channel for radial transport of mass and energy in the Jovian magnetosphere and provides a favorable environment for magnetic ...

Anthropic arguments outside of cosmology and string theory [PDF]

open access: yesBelgrade Philosophical Annual, 2016
Anthropic reasoning has lately been strongly associated with the string theory landscape and some theories of particle cosmology, such as cosmological inflation. The association is not, contrary to multiple statements by physicists and philosophers alike,

Planetary Science Virtual Observatory architecture

open access: yes, 2014
In the framework of the Europlanet-RI program, a prototype of Virtual Observatory dedicated to Planetary Science was defined. Most of the activity was dedicated to the elaboration of standards to retrieve and visualize data in this field, and to provide ...
