Fear the Shadows of the Giants: On Secular Perturbations in Circumstellar Habitable Zones of Double Stars [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2020 Abstract After the detection of extrasolar planets in binary- and multiple-star systems, questions arose about their dynamics and habitability. In this study we investigate a five-dimensional parameter space for wide binary stars with a massive planet beyond the habitable zone (HZ).

Circumstellar habitable zones for deep terrestrial biospheres [PDF]
Planetary and Space Science, 2013 The habitable zone (HZ) is conventionally the thin shell of space around a star within which liquid water is thermally stable on the surface of an Earth-like planet (Kasting et al., 1993). However, life on Earth is not restricted to the surface and includes a “deep biosphere” reaching several km in depth.

Circumstellar habitable zones of binary-star systems in the solar neighbourhood [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2012 Binary and multiple systems constitute more than half of the total stellar population in the Solar neighborhood (Kiseleva-Eggleton and Eggleton 2001). Their frequent occurrence as well as the fact that more than 70 (Schneider et al. 2011) planets have already been discovered in such configurations - most noteably the telluric companion of alpha ...

Binary Gravitational Perturbations and Their Influence on the Habitability of Circumstellar Planets
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 In order to assess the habitability of planets in binary star systems, not only astrophysical considerations regarding stellar and atmospheric conditions are needed, but orbital dynamics and the architecture of the system also play an important role. Due

, 2009 The concept of the Circumstellar Habitable Zone has served the scientific community well for some decades. It slips easily off the tongue, and it would be hard to replace. Recently, however, several workers have postulated types of habitable bodies which might exist outside the classic circumstellar habitable zone (HZ).

Extended Habitability of Exoplanets Due to Subglacial Water
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Considering subglacial liquid water, a significant extension of the classical Habitable Zone is obtained. Elaborating on the model of Wandel it is shown how an atmosphere and liquid water could survive on tidally locked planets closely orbiting an M ...
