Coronal mass ejection (CME) activity of low mass M stars as an important factor for the habitability of terrestrial exoplanets. I. CME impact on expected magnetospheres of Earth-like exoplanets in close-in habitable zonesMaxim L Khodachenko
Space Research Institute, Austrian Academy of Sciences, Graz, Austria
Astrobiology 7:167-84. 2007..1 AU can be shrunk, under the action of CMEs, to altitudes of about 1,000 km above the planetary surface. Such compressed magnetospheres may have crucial consequences for atmospheric erosion processes...
Coronal mass ejection (CME) activity of low mass M stars as an important factor for the habitability of terrestrial exoplanets. II. CME-induced ion pick up of Earth-like exoplanets in close-in habitable zonesHelmut Lammer
Space Research Institute, Austrian Academy of Sciences, Graz, Austria
Astrobiology 7:185-207. 2007....
Geophysical and atmospheric evolution of habitable planetsHelmut Lammer
Space Research Institute, Austrian Academy of Sciences, Graz, Austria
Astrobiology 10:45-68. 2010..For some planets, strong atmospheric escape could even effect the stability of the atmosphere...
M stars as targets for terrestrial exoplanet searches and biosignature detectionJohn Scalo
Department of Astronomy, University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas 78712, USA
Astrobiology 7:85-166. 2007..The discussion given here suggests that observations of M star exoplanets can decide this latter question with only slight modifications to plans already in place for direct imaging terrestrial exoplanet missions...
