Understanding the lifetime of CO2 in the atmosphere is critical for predictions regarding future climate changes. A simple mass conservation analysis presented here generates tight estimations for the atmosphere's retention time constant.…
We monitored the planet-bearing solar-type star HD209458 for sodium absorption in the region of the stellar NaI D1 line that would be indicative of cometary activity in the system. We observed the star using the HET HRS with high S/N and…
For an MD system representing a monatomic liquid, the distribution of $3N$-dimensional potential energy structures consists of two classes, random and symmetric. This distribution is shown and discussed for liquid Na. The random class…
Accurate and reliable state of charge (SoC) estimation becomes increasingly important to provide a stable and efficient environment for Lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) powered devices. Most data-driven SoC models are built for a fixed ambient…
We perform fully quantum mechanical calculations in the binary approximation of the emission and absorption profiles of the sodium $3s$-$3p$ and potassium $4s$-$4p$ resonance lines under the influence of a helium perturbing gas. We use…
We present a three dimensional hot Jupiter model, extending from 200 bar to 1 mbar, using the Intermediate General Circulation Model from the University of Reading. Our horizontal spectral resolution is T31 (equivalent to a grid of 48x96),…
The study of the formation of molecular hydrogen on low temperature surfaces is of interest both because it allows to explore elementary steps in the heterogeneous catalysis of a simple molecule and because of the applications in…
Hot Jupiters exhibit atmospheric temperatures ranging from hundreds to thousands of Kelvin. Because of their large day-night temperature differences, condensable species that are stable in the gas phase on the dayside, such as TiO and…
We present a 3D fully selfconsistent multi-fluid hydrodynamic aeronomy model to study the structure of a hydrogen dominated expanding upper atmosphere around the hot Jupiter HD 209458b and the warm Neptune GJ 436b. In comparison to previous…
The share of wind power in fuel mixes worldwide has increased considerably. The main ingredient when deriving wind power predictions are wind speed data; the closer to the wind farms, the better they forecast the power supply. The current…
Solar wind provides an example of a weakly collisional plasma expanding from a thermal source in the presence of spatially diverging magnetic field lines. Observations show that in the inner heliosphere, the electron temperature declines…
We obtain the frequency and temperature dependence of the conductivity for (disordered) solids, where the temperature dependence is defined in terms of the related thermodynamic state function in exponential (or power law, etc.) forms. The…
A simple and popular Bridgman's model predicts a linear correlation between the thermal conductivity coefficient and the sound velocity of dense liquids. A proportionality coefficient proposed originally is fixed and independent of the…
Four members of the new class of pulsating sdB stars are analysed from Keck HIRES spectra using NLTE and LTE model atmospheres. Atmospheric parameters (Teff, log g, log(He/H)), metal abundances and rotational velocities are determined.…
We present results on the structure of the near-surface layers of the Sun obtained by inverting frequencies of high-degree solar modes from "ring diagrams". We have results for eight epochs between June 1996 and October 2003. The…
We use a combination of a many-body model analysis with an ab initio band structure calculation to derive the temperature dependent electronic quasiparticle structure of the rare-earth metal Gadolinium. As a local-moment system Gd is…
This work presents a new theoretical and numerical model describing all possible linear interactions between upper-hybrid wave turbulence and random density fluctuations in a solar wind plasma; not only linear processes as wave reflection,…
The upper atmospheres of temperate sub-Neptunes are strongly influenced by atmospheric dynamics due to their cool equilibrium temperature and thereby longer chemical timescales than the atmospheric dynamical timescales. In this study, we…
The anticorrelated distributions of temperature and density of protons are a well-known property of the solar wind. Nevertheless, it is unclear till now if they are formed by some kind of the universal physical mechanism? Unfortunately, a…
We consider the atmospheric flow on short-period extra-solar planets through two-dimensional numerical simulations of hydrodynamics with radiation transfer. One side is always exposed to the irradiation from the host star. The other is…
