Atmospheres of Planets and their Satellites [PDF]
Highlights of Astronomy, 1989 ABSTRACTA general review of the chemistry of planetary atmospheres was given with the emphasis on the outer planets and their satellites. The impact of the scientific findings of the Voyager Mission on our understanding of the chemistry and composition of the Jovian, Saturnian, and Uranian atmospheres was highlighted. Hydrocarbon photochemistry will be

Efficient and inefficient hydrodynamic escape of exo-satellite atmospheres driven by irradiation from their young giant planets [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical SocietyABSTRACT The bolometric radiation from a central body is potentially a powerful driver of atmospheric escape from planets or satellites. When heated above their equilibrium temperatures those satellites, due to their low surface gravity, are be prone to significant atmospheric erosion.

The Schumann resonance: A tool for exploring the atmospheric environment and the subsurface of the planets and their satellites [PDF]
Icarus, 2008 The propagation of extremely low frequency (ELF) electromagnetic waves and resonance phenomena in the Earth atmosphere has been extensively studied, in relation with ionospheric dynamics, and thunderstorm and lightning activities. A similar investigation can be performed for any other planet and satellite environment, provided this body is wrapped into

Reports on Progress in Physics, 1973 Observation of radiation reflected, scattered or emitted in various regions of the electromagnetic spectrum can yield information about the structure of a planetary atmosphere. Instrumentation for the measurement of temperature, density, and composition and for cloud imaging is described, methods of information retrieval from radiometric observations ...

International Journal of AstrobiologyAbstract Ionizing radiation is known to have a destructive effect on biology by causing damage to DNA, cells and the production of reactive oxygen species, among other things. While direct exposure to high-radiation dose is indeed not favorable for biological activity, ionizing radiation can and, in some cases, is known to produce a number of ...
