Over the past two decades NASA spacecraft missions obtained photographs permitting accurate size measurements of the planets and moons, and their surface...
Over the past two decades NASA spacecraft have visited many of the planets and moons of the solar system. During these missions many detailed photographs were...
Planetary Soft X-ray Spectroscopy: Studies On The Effects Of Regolith Properties
We present results from a study on how the regolith surface affects the measured soft X-ray spectra from atmosphereless planetary surfaces as a function of...
Planetary transit candidates in CoRoT LRa01 field (Carone+, 2012)
We present the list of planetary transit candidates from the CoRoT LRa01 star field in the Monoceros constellation toward the Galactic anti-center direction...
Planetary transit candidates in CoRoT SRc01 field (Erikson+, 2012)
Among the acquired data, we analyzed those for 1269 sources in the chromatic bands and 5705 in the monochromatic band. Instrumental noise and the stellar...
According to theory, high energy emission from the coronae of cool stars can severely erode the atmosphere of orbiting planets. To test the long term effects of...
