The impact of ultraviolet heating and cooling on the dynamics and observability of lava planet atmospheres
Lava planets have non-global, condensible atmospheres similar to icy bodies within the Solar system. Because they depend on interior dynamics, studying the atmospheres of lava planets can lead to understanding unique geological processes driven by their extreme environment. Models of lava planet atm...
