Titan is the only moon with a substantial atmosphere, the only other thick N2 atmosphere
besides Earth's, the site of extraordinarily complex atmospheric chemistry that far surpasses …

This paper reviews habitability conditions for a terrestrial planet from the point of view of
geosciences. It addresses how interactions between the interior of a planet or a moon and …

Abstract Thanks to the Cassini–Huygens mission, Titan, the pale orange dot of Pioneer and
Voyager encounters, has been revealed to be a dynamic, hydrologically shaped, organic …

We investigate the effect of a single large impact either during the Late Veneer or Late
Heavy Bombardment on the evolution of the mantle and atmosphere of Venus. We use a …

The presence of N 2 in the surface environment of Pluto is critical in creating Pluto's richness
of features and processes. Here, we propose that the nitrogen atoms in the N 2 observed on …

This brief review will discuss the current knowledge on the origin and evolution of the
nitrogen atmospheres of the icy bodies in the solar system, particularly of Titan, Triton and …

We apply a 1D upper atmosphere model to study thermal escape of nitrogen over Titan's
history. Significant thermal escape should have occurred very early for solar extreme …

During the accretion of Titan, impact heating may have been sufficient to allow the global
melting of water ice and the release of volatile compounds, mainly constituted of CO 2, CH 4 …

We investigate the comparative effect of impacts by trans-Neptunian Objects on the
atmospheres of the moons Ganymede, Callisto, Europa, and Titan. We derive an analytic …

The atmospheres of bodies in the Solar system display a great degree of diversity in their
mass and composition. Impacts onto these bodies by smaller objects, such as asteroids …
