Prof. Sara Seager (Massachusett institute of technology)16/06/2015, 08:45Atmospheric and Space Physics / Physique atmosphérique et de l'espace (DASP-DPAE)Invited Speaker / Conférencier invitéFrom the first tentative discoveries to veritable spectra, the last 15 years has seen a triumphant success in observation and theory of exoplanet atmospheres. Yet the excitement of discovery has been mitigated by lessons learned from the dozens of exoplanet atmospheres studied, namely the difficulty in robustly identifying molecules, the possible interference of clouds, and the permanent...Go to contribution page

Jeremy Scott (University of Lethbridge)16/06/2015, 09:15Atmospheric and Space Physics / Physique atmosphérique et de l'espace (DASP-DPAE)Oral (Non-Student) / orale (non-étudiant)Over half of the energy emitted by the Universe appears in the relatively unexplored Far-Infrared (FIR) spectral region, which is virtually opaque from the ground and must be observed by space-borne instrumentation. The European Space Agency (ESA) Planck and Herschel Space Observatories, launched together on 14 May 2009, have both provided pioneering observations in this spectral range from...Go to contribution page

Alexei Kouznetsov (University of Calgary)16/06/2015, 09:30Atmospheric and Space Physics / Physique atmosphérique et de l'espace (DASP-DPAE)Oral (Non-Student) / orale (non-étudiant)Nuclear spallations accompanying Galactic Cosmic Ray (GCR) propagation through the atmosphere forms a so-called "cascade shower" by means of production of secondary protons, photons, neutrons, muons, pions and other energetic particles. World-wide Neutron Monitor (NM) network has been deployed for the ground-based monitoring of energetic protons and neutrons precipitations. Real time data...Go to contribution page

Whether mandated and government funded or voluntarily constructed and operated, these networks provide data that can be used for scientific...Go to contribution page

Adriana Predoi-Cross (University of Lethbridge)16/06/2015, 10:00Atmospheric and Space Physics / Physique atmosphérique et de l'espace (DASP-DPAE)Oral (Non-Student) / orale (non-étudiant)Methane is an important greenhouse gas in the terrestrial atmosphere and a trace gas constituent in planetary atmospheres. We report measurements of the self- and air-broadened Lorentz widths, shifts and line mixing coefficients along with their temperature dependences for methane absorption lines in the 2.22 to 2.44 microns spectral range. This set of highly accurate spectral line shape...Go to contribution page
