Sky map of the Lyα brightness seen from Europa for visit 12 (Jan 26, 2015) from interplanetary medium H scattering model (Pryor et al. 2024). The direction to the Sun
Time evolution of H2 mixing ratio for an atmosphere with 100% H2O. The heatmaps display vertical profiles over the 360-day simulation duration, with pressure (in bars) on the y-axis
(a) A tube with synthesized high-pressure material (tan and red regions) before collection. The origin of the color difference is unclear, but it is thought to be due to a
The spectacular birthplace of weird carbon molecules known as “buckyballs” came to light in new imagery of a nebula from the James Webb Space Telescope. The gas cloud includes an
This artist’s impression compares the semi-heavy water content of the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS (left) and Earth (right). Insets illustrate the relative abundance of deuterated water (HDO) molecules, showing that 3I/ATLAS

Isolines of planet radius versus mass, extracting cross-sections from our grid of models by holding other variables constant (top-right text box). Top (a): sensitivity to instellation (colour) and atmosphere mass
The (H2O)18 cluster used in the present work, optimized at the B97X-D3/def2-TZVP level. Panels a, b, and c represent the three different initial N2 adsorption sites. — astro-ph.GA Reactions occurring
Black points are the sample of the planetary formation dataset provided by Kimura & Ikoma (2022) in the phase space of ∆a = 0.005AU, ∆Mp = 0.5M⊕. Two-dimensional probability density
