DOI: 10.1007/s11214-020-00719-1
Abstract: TRAPPIST-1 is a fantastic nearby (∼39.14 light years) planetary system made of at least seven transiting terrestrial-size, terrestrial-mass planets all receiving a moderate amount of irradiation. To date, this is the most observationally favourable system… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020je006653
Abstract: The evolution of a single raindrop falling below a cloud is governed by fluid dynamics and thermodynamics fundamentally transferable to planetary atmospheres beyond modern Earth's. Here, we show how three properties that characterize falling raindrops… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stad1251
Abstract: We present a new 1-D multi-physics simulation code with use cases intended for, but not limited to, hydrodynamic escape problems of planetary atmospheres and planetary accretion models. Our formulation treats an arbitrary number of species… read more here.

Susceptibility of planetary atmospheres to mass loss and growth by planetesimal impacts: the impact shoreline
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society"
DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stz3052
Abstract: This paper considers how planetesimal impacts affect planetary atmospheres. Atmosphere evolution depends on the ratio of gain from volatiles to loss from atmosphere stripping fv; for constant bombardment, atmospheres with fv < 1 are destroyed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1134/s0021364019100011
Abstract: A possibility is discussed of observations of thunderous neutrons by their signatures as rather narrow gamma-photon bands in the near megaelectronvolt energy range as a result of the neutrons radiative capture by nitrogen nuclei N147(n,… read more here.
