Atmospheres of rocky exoplanets
R Wordsworth, L Kreidberg - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2022 - annualreviews.org
Rocky planets are common around other stars, but their atmospheric properties remain
largely unconstrained. Thanks to a wealth of recent planet discoveries and upcoming …

Magma ocean, water, and the early atmosphere of Venus
The current state and surface conditions of the Earth and its twin planet Venus are drastically
different. Whether these differences are directly inherited from the earliest stages of …

The detectability and characterization of the TRAPPIST-1 exoplanet atmospheres with JWST
Abstract The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will offer the first opportunity to
characterize terrestrial exoplanets with sufficient precision to identify high mean molecular …

Habitability and biosignatures of Hycean worlds
We investigate a new class of habitable planets composed of water-rich interiors with
massive oceans underlying H 2-rich atmospheres, referred to here as Hycean worlds. With …

A comparative study of atmospheric chemistry with VULCAN
We present an update of the open-source photochemical kinetics code VULCAN to include
C–H–N–O–S networks and photochemistry. The additional new features are advection …

A coupled model of episodic warming, oxidation and geochemical transitions on early Mars
Reconciling the geology of Mars with models of atmospheric evolution remains a major
challenge. Martian geology is characterized by past evidence for episodic surface liquid …

Potential Atmospheric Compositions of TRAPPIST-1 c Constrained by JWST/MIRI Observations at 15 μm
Abstract The first James Webb Space Telescope observations of TRAPPIST-1 c showed a
secondary eclipse depth of 421±94 ppm at 15 μm, which is consistent with a bare rock …

Mantle redox state drives outgassing chemistry and atmospheric composition of rocky planets
Volcanic degassing of planetary interiors has important implications for their corresponding
atmospheres. The oxidation state of rocky interiors affects the volatile partitioning during …

Vertically Resolved Magma Ocean–Protoatmosphere Evolution: H2, H2O, CO2, CH4, CO, O2, and N2 as Primary Absorbers
The earliest atmospheres of rocky planets originate from extensive volatile release during
magma ocean epochs that occur during assembly of the planet. These establish the initial …
