The Implications of Thermal Hydrodynamic Atmospheric Escape on the TRAPPIST-1 Planets

JWST observations of the seven-planet TRAPPIST-1 system will provide an excellent opportunity to test outcomes of stellar-driven evolution of terrestrial planetary atmospheres, including atmospheric escape, ocean loss, and abiotic oxygen production. While most previous studies use a single luminosit...
