Not exact matches
On Proxima Centauri b, the model indicates that high stellar wind pressure would cause the atmosphere to escape and prevent atmosphere from lasting long enough to give rise to surface - based life as we know it.

In two papers in The Astrophysical Journal Letters, the scientists develop models showing that the stellar wind — the constant outpouring of charged particles that sweep out into space — could severely deplete the atmosphere of such planets over hundreds of millions of years, rendering them unable to host surface - based life as we know it.
Whereas the lower atmosphere (at altitudes of less than 200 kilometers) is consistent with ground - based stellar occultations, the upper atmosphere is much colder and more compact than indicated by pre-encounter models.
The ability to accurately determine the rate of this H - 17O fusion reaction provides nuclear physicists with another key puzzle piece, alongside direct observations of oxygen elemental and isotopic abundances in stellar atmospheres and in primitive meteorites, to zero in on complete and accurate models of stars.
Ongoing radio observations (SMA, JCMT, VLA) of Sirius A are being used to set an observationally determined standard for stellar atmosphere modeling and debris disk studies around A stars, as well as to take the first step toward characterizing potential intrinsic uncertainty in stellar emission at these wavelengths.
In 1970, Bolton was the first to develop a computer model for stellar atmospheres that was able to generate large regions of the modeled spectrum with enough precision to allow comparison with the spectra from real stars.
