説明

<jats:p> Deuterium on Mars has been detected by the resolution of several Doppler-shifted lines of HDO near 3.7 micrometers in the planet's spectrum. The ratio of deuterium to hydrogen is (9 ± 4) × 10 <jats:sup>-4</jats:sup> ; the abundance of H <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> 0 was derived from lines near 1.1 micrometers. This ratio is enriched on Mars over the teiluric value by a factor of 6 ± 3. The enrichment implies that hydrogen escaped more rapidly from Mars in the past than it does now, consistent with a dense and warm ancient atmosphere on the planet. </jats:p>
