CHEOPS observations of the HD 108236 planetary system: a fifth planet, improved ephemerides, and planetary radii [PDF]
Context. The detection of a super-Earth and three mini-Neptunes transiting the bright (V = 9.2 mag) star HD 108236 (also known as TOI-1233) was recently reported on the basis of TESS and ground-based light curves. Aims.

The case for studying other planetary magnetospheres and atmospheres in Heliophysics [PDF]
Heliophysics is the field that"studies the nature of the Sun, and how it influences the very nature of space - and, in turn, the atmospheres of planetary bodies and the technology that exists there."However, NASA's Heliophysics Division tends to limit ...

A low accretion efficiency of planetesimals formed at planetary gap edges [PDF]
Observations and models of giant planets indicate that such objects are enriched in heavy elements compared to solar abundances. The prevailing view is that giant planets accreted multiple Earth masses of heavy elements after the end of core formation ...

Three planets transiting the evolved star EPIC 249893012: a hot 8.8-M⊕ super-Earth and two warm 14.7 and 10.2-M⊕ sub-Neptunes [PDF]
We report the discovery of a new planetary system with three transiting planets, one super-Earth and two sub-Neptunes, that orbit EPIC 249893012, a G8 IV-V evolved star (M⋆ = 1.05 ± 0.05 M⊙, R⋆ = 1.71 ± 0.04 R⊙, Teff = 5430 ± 85 K).

Growth after the streaming instability: The radial distance dependence of the planetary growth [PDF]
Streaming instability is hypothesized to be triggered at particular protoplanetary disk locations where the volume density of the solid particles is enriched comparable to that of the gas.

A non‐destructive analytical methodology, based on Raman microscopy (single point and imaging), micro‐energy dispersive X‐ray fluorescence (μED‐XRF) imaging analysis, and scanning electron microscopy coupled to energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM‐EDS), is suggested for a first analytical characterization for the Martian samples that will be taken to ...

Quantifying the Key Factors Affecting the Escape of Planetary Atmospheres
The habitability of Earth-like planets is an increasingly important subject in astrophysics and in planetary sciences. Atmospheric escape plays a vital role in the evolution of the habitability of Earth-like planets.

Abstract A 6.0‐magnitude (Mw) earthquake was reported to have occurred in Jiashi County, Xinjiang at 21:27 on 19 January 2020, Beijing time (13:27 UTC). This study applied a stochastic finite‐fault approach based on the dynamic corner frequency (EXSIM) to simulate 23 near‐field stations within a distance of 120 km from the epicenter.

Abstract Extreme precipitation events may cause flooding, slope failure, erosion, deposition, and damage to infrastructure over a regional scale, but the impacts of these events are often difficult to fully characterize. Regional‐scale landscape change occurred during an extreme rain event in June 2012 in northeastern Minnesota.

Abstract The boundary between the Northern Andean block and the South American plate is a first‐order tectonic structure in Colombia with historically M > 7 earthquakes. However, details about individual sections of the system remain unknown. We illuminate the seismotectonic of the Algeciras fault by investigating an earthquake sequence that started on
