Ako vypočítať Jeans Escape

Čo je Jeans Escape?

Jeans escape describes atmospheric loss when molecular thermal velocity exceeds planet escape velocity, particularly important for light elements.

Sprievodca krok za krokom

  1. 1Input planet mass/radius, atmospheric temperature and composition
  2. 2Calculate escape velocity and thermal velocity
  3. 3Estimate atmospheric escape timescale

Worked Examples

Vstup
Earth H/He at 6000K exosphere
Výsledok
H escapes easily, He slowly, O/N retain
Why Earth lost primordial atmosphere

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Neglecting temperature gradient with altitude
  • Assuming steady escape rate

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Mars still lose atmosphere?

Yes, slowly; weak gravity and solar wind accelerate loss.
