THE ATMOSPHERES OF EARTHLIKE PLANETS AFTER GIANT IMPACT EVENTS

THE ATMOSPHERES OF EARTHLIKE PLANETS AFTER GIANT IMPACT EVENTS

It is now understood that the accretion of terrestrial planets naturally involves giant collisions, the moon-forming impact being a well-known example. In the aftermath of such collisions, the surface of the surviving planet is very hot and potentially detectable. Here we explore the atmospheric che...
