Exoplanet X-ray irradiation and evaporation rates with eROSITA

نویسندگان

چکیده

High-energy irradiation is a driver for atmospheric evaporation and mass loss in exoplanets. This work based on data from eROSITA, the soft X-ray instrument aboard SRG (Spectrum Roentgen Gamma) mission, as well archival other missions, we aim to characterise high-energy environment of known exoplanets estimate their rates. We use source catalogues XMM-Newton, Chandra ROSAT derive luminosities exoplanet host stars 0.2-2 keV energy band with an underlying coronal, i.e. optically thin thermal spectrum. present catalogue stellar EUV luminosities, exoplanetary fluxes estimated rates total 287 exoplanets, 96 among them being characterised first time new eROSITA detections. identify 14 detections transiting that are subject levels cause observable signatures which makes suitable targets follow-up observations.

EXOPLANET HD209458b (OSIRIS∗): EVAPORATION STRENGTHENED

Following re-analysis of Hubble Space Telescope observations of primary transits of the extrasolar planet HD209458b at Lyman α, Ben-Jaffel (2007, BJ007) claims that no sign of evaporation is observed. Here we show that, in fact, this new analysis is consistent with the one of Vidal-Madjar et al. (2003, VM003) and supports the detection of evaporation. The apparent disagreement is mainly due to ...

Induction of radioresistant nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell line CNE-2R by repeated high-dose X-ray irradiation

Background: All To enhance the curative effect of radiotherapy, we established a radio-resistant cell line, CNE-2R from CNE-2, a radio-sensitive type of CNE, through repeated irradiation. The developed cell line provides a basis for further studies on the radio-resistance of CNE and the molecular mechanism of radiotherapy sensitization drugs. Materials and Methods: The CNE-2 cell line was selec...

Exoplanet Hd209458b: Inflated Hydrogen Atmosphere but No Sign of Evaporation

Many extrasolar planets orbit closely to their parent star. Their existence raises the fundamental problem of loss and gain in their mass. For exoplanet HD209458b, reports on an unusually extended hydrogen corona and a hot layer in the lower atmosphere seem to support the scenario of atmospheric inflation by the strong stellar irradiation. However, difficulties in reconciling evaporation models...

Thermal Evaporation of Gas from X-ray Clusters

A fraction of the thermal protons in the outer envelope of an X-ray cluster have velocities that exceed the local escape speed from the cluster gravitational potential. The Coulomb mean-freepath of these protons is larger than the virial radius of the cluster at temperatures & 2.5keV. The resulting leakage of suprathermal particles generates a collisionless shock in neighboring voids and fills ...

Industrial X-ray imaging based on scintillators and CMOS APS array: direct X-ray irradiation effects

To see the effects of the direct X-ray in a Lanex screen-coupled CMOS APS imager, we measured modulation transfer function (MTF), noise power spectrum (NPS), and detective quantum efficiency (DQE). These measurements were performed under the condition of non-destructive test (NDT). By increasing the cumulative exposure on the imager, the MTF was degraded, and also leading to the DQE degradation...
