Scientific paper

This poster will describe new simulations exploring concepts related to the retention of an atmosphere. Users have will have the capability to investigate the distribution of speeds for common gases and how they vary with temperature. Another simulator will focus on escape velocity. These concepts will be linked together in simulating exactly which gases are retained by various solar system bodies over time.
The Nebraska Astronomy Applet Project consists of high quality astrophysics simulations surrounded by variety of supporting materials. The resources include complete background information, student guides, instructor guides, and embedded assessment. These materials are publicly available at http://astro.unl.edu and are funded by NSF grant #0231270.
