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 …

Conspectus For many years, scientists suspected that the interstellar medium was too
hostile for organic species and that only a few simple molecules could be formed under such …

Scientists use the Earth as a tool for astrobiology by analyzing planetary field analogues (ie
terrestrial samples and field sites that resemble planetary bodies in our Solar System). In …

We report new optical constants (refractive index, n, and extinction coefficient, k) for
exoplanet haze analogs from 0.3 to 30 µm. The samples were produced in a simulated N 2 …

The photochemical haze produced in the upper atmosphere of Titan plays a key role in
various atmospheric and surface processes on Titan. The surface energy, one important …

This paper presents the first results of the solid phase analysis of the Titan tholins generated
in the Titan Haze Simulation (THS) experiments. This study complements the gas phase …

We utilized aerosol extinction coefficient inferred from Cassini/CIRS spectra in the far and
mid infrared region to derive the extinction cross-section near an altitude of 190km at 15° S …

Titan, the biggest moon of Saturn, has a thick atmosphere which presents similarities with
the one thought to be on Earth at its beginning. The study of Titan's photochemical haze is …

We present the transmission spectrum of HAT-P-12b through a joint analysis of data
obtained from the Hubble Space Telescope Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph and …

This work deals with the optical constant characterization of Titan aerosol analogues or
“tholins” produced with the PAMPRE experimental setup and deposited as thin films onto a …
