It can be assumed that the composition of Mercury’s thin gas envelope (exosphere) is related to thecomposition of the planets crustal materials. If this relationship is true, then inferences regarding the bulkchemistry of the planet might be made from a thorough exospheric study. The most vexing of allunsolved problems is the uncertainty in the source of each component. Historically, it has been believedthat H and He come primarily from the solar wind, while Na and K originate from volatilized materialspartitioned between Mercury’s crust and meteoritic impactors. The processes that eject atoms andmolecules into the exosphere of Mercury are generally considered to be thermal vaporization, photonstimulateddesorption (PSD), impact vaporization, and ion sputtering. Each of these processes has its owntemporal and spatial dependence. The exosphere is strongly influenced by Mercury’s highly ellipticalorbit and rapid orbital speed. As a consequence the surface undergoes large fluctuations in temperatureand experiences differences of insolation with longitude. We will discuss these processes but focus moreon the expected surface composition and solar wind particle sputtering which releases material like Caand other elements from the surface minerals and discuss the relevance of composition modelling

Notre société incite hommes et femmes, dès leur plus jeune âge, à adopter des caractères et des comportements stéréotypés, sous peine de ne plus être reconnus comme de « vrais » hommes et de « vraies » femmes. Ce petit traité de désobéissance féministe a pour ambition de s'interroger sur les représentations contemporaines des sexes de manière à permettre à celles et ceux qui ne viennent ni de Mars, ni de Vénus de désobéir à cette « police des genres ». A la voix de l'auteure s'ajoutent celles d'une cinquantaine de personnalités - journalistes, politicien-ne-s, écrivain-e-s, professeur-e-s, etc. -, qui dévoilent leur rapport au féminisme.
