How Hospitable Are Space Weather Affected Habitable Zones? The Role of Ion Escape (2017, unknown): “These species are dif ﬁ cult to remove unless dense and fast stellar winds or the processes of photochemical escape are invoked ( Lammer et al. 2003; Lee et al. 2015; Lichtenegger et al. 2016 ) .”
THE EVOLUTION OF SOLAR FLUX FROM 0.1 nm TO 160 μm: QUANTITATIVE ESTIMATES FOR PLANETARY STUDIES (2012, unknown): “The flux at Earth, FEARTH(τ ), where τ is the age in Gyr, is computed as FEARTH(τ ) = 4π × FMODEL(τ ) ( R(τ ) 1AU )2 , (3) where FMODEL(τ ) is the stellar surface flux per steradian from the Kurucz model (so that 4π × FMODEL(τ ) is the stellar surface flux), R(τ ) is the solar radius (Table 2), and ”
A cold and wet Mars (2010, background): “In addition, a huge quantity of the water reservoir was lost through thermal and nonthermal escape processes, by chemical weathering of the surface soil (Lammer et al., 2003), and through a progressive crustal assimilation of H2O (Clifford and Parker, 2001).”
Atmospheric Loss of Exoplanets Resulting from Stellar X-Ray and Extreme-Ultraviolet Heating (2003, background): “Giant gaseous exoplanets with small initial masses may evolve into volatile-rich large terrestrial planets (Kuchner 2003; Lammer et al. 2003b).”
Atmospheric Escape and Evolution of Terrestrial Planets and Satellites (2008, methodology): “Modeling the atmospheric D/H ratio by using different methods results in a total H2O loss of a 3.6–50 m global layer of H2O from Mars during the past 3.5 Ga (e.g. Yung et al. 1988; Lammer et al. 1996, 2003a; Kass and Yung 1999; Krasnopolsky and Feldman 2001; Bertaux and Montmessin 2001).”
The Cosmic Shoreline: The Evidence that Escape Determines which Planets Have Atmospheres, and what this May Mean for Proxima Centauri B (2017, background): “cient: Mars intercepts about 300 grams of solar wind each second, which is comparable to the observed O +escape rate of 160 g s 1 (Brain et al. 2015) and to modeled O escape rates of 300 { 500 g s 1 (Lammer et al. 2003b). Apparently the solar wind impinging on Mars erodes roughly its own mass in mar”
The Sun in Time: Activity and Environment (2007, background): “Non-thermal escape processes (of O) alone may explain the loss of a 12 – 15m Martian ocean during the past 3.5Gyrs (Lammer et al. 2003a; Chassefière and Leblanc 2004, and further references therein converging to similar numbers).”
