Mapping D/H on Mars using EXES aboard SOFIA

Résumé

The D/H ratio on Mars, on a global scale, is an important measurement for understanding the past history of water on Mars [1]. Locally, through condensation and sublima- tion processes, it is a possible tracer of the sources and sinks of the Martian water vapor [2]. We have used EXES (Echelon Cross Echelle Spectrograph) aboard SOFIA (Strato- spheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy) to map the D/H ratio on Mars by measuring simul- taneously H 2 O, HDO and CO 2 transitions in the thermal infrared (7.2 μm and 7.5 μm). We find no evidence for strong local nor seasonal vari- ations of the D/H ratio.
