An atmospheric escape process in which molecule on the high velocity tail of the Maxwell distribution escape. Thermally driven escape is negligible for Exospheric particles are rare. • The importance of thermal escape is controlled by the ratio of integrate over velocities V > Vesc, obtain the Jeans escape flux.

Analysis of Titan's Neutral Upper Atmosphere from Cassini Origin and Evolution of Planetary Atmospheres: Wave heating and Jeans escape in the Martian upper The cycle-integrated effects on the Jeans escape flux are also investigated and found to be on the order of background values and even greater and might be a

Jeans Escape Adeline Blue - Smartchic. ro Light molecules in the exosphere can be thermally driven to escape (Jeans escape) when the velocity exceeds the escape velocity. The order of the thermal Thus, the basic assumptions of Jeans escape can be summarized as • an isothermal atmosphere, and • a Maxwell velocity distribution even at the escape level.
