Description
Planetary and Space Science publishes original articles as well as short communications (letters). Ground-based and space-borne
instrumentation and laboratory simulation of solar system processes are included. The following fields of planetary and solar system
research are covered:
• celestial mechanics, including dynamical evolution of the solar system, gravitational captures and
resonances, relativistic effects, tracking and dynamics
• cosmochemistry and origin, including all aspects of the formation
and initial physical and chemical evolution of the solar system
• terrestrial planets and satellites, including the physics
of the interiors, geology and morphology of the surfaces, tectonics, mineralogy and dating
• outer planets and satellites,
including formation and evolution, remote sensing at all wavelengths and in situ measurements
• planetary atmospheres, including
formation and evolution, circulation and meteorology, boundary layers, remote sensing and laboratory simulation
• planetary
magnetospheres and ionospheres, including origin of magnetic fields, magnetospheric plasma and radiation belts, and their interaction
with the sun, the solar wind and satellites
• small bodies, dust and rings, including asteroids, comets and zodiacal light
and their interaction with the solar radiation and the solar wind
• exobiology, including origin of life, detection of planetary
ecosystems and pre-biological phenomena in the solar system and laboratory simulations
• extrasolar systems, including the
detection and/or the detectability of exoplanets and planetary systems, their formation and evolution, the physical and chemical properties
of the exoplanets
• history of planetary and space research

Call for PhD abstracts in "Planetary and
Space Science"
In order to support and promote the work of young scientists in planetary sciences, the Editorial Board of "Planetary
and Space Science" is inviting young Ph.D.s to submit an abstract of their Ph.D. work for publication in "Planetary and Space
Science".
The maximum length is one journal page, including figures and tables. Authors are welcome to provide a website where
their Ph.D. manuscript can be found. Abstracts should be submitted by the Ph.D. advisor responsible for the thesis work, and should mention
in the introduction the date and place of acceptance. For complete preparation guidelines: please see the Guide for Authors
