Kepler Observations of the Three Pre-Launch Exoplanet Candidates: Discover of Two Eclipsing Binaries and a New Exoplanet [PDF]
Three transiting exoplanet candidate stars were discovered in a ground-based photometric survey prior to the launch of NASA's Kepler mission. Kepler observations of them were obtained during Quarter 1 of the Kepler mission.

Exoplanet Transit Database. Reduction and processing of the photometric data of exoplanet transits
We demonstrate the newly developed resource for exoplanet researchers - The Exoplanet Transit Database. This database is designed to be a web application and it is open for any exoplanet observer. It came on-line in September 2008.

Zehn Jahre Gaia‐Messungen: Die hochgenaue Kartierung des Himmels
Das astrometrische Weltraumobservatorium Gaia der Europäischen Weltraumorganisation hat die astrometrische Forschung revolutioniert, indem es unter anderem präzise Positionen, Bewegungen und Entfernungen von fast zwei Milliarden Himmelsobjekten gemessen hat. Damit stellt es wertvolle Daten für fast alle Gebiete der Astrophysik bereit. Nach dem Ende der

Tidal effects arise from differential and inelastic deformation of a planet by a perturbing body. The continuous action of tides modify the rotation of the planet together with its orbit until an equilibrium situation is reached. It is often believed that synchronous motion is the most probable outcome of the tidal evolution process, since synchronous ...

Theoretical Spectra of Terrestrial Exoplanet Surfaces [PDF]
We investigate spectra of airless rocky exoplanets with a theoretical framework that self-consistently treats reflection and thermal emission. We find that a silicate surface on an exoplanet is spectroscopically detectable via prominent Si-O features in ...

Abstract We investigate the melt production of planetary impacts as a function of planet size (R/REarth $R/{R}_{\text{Earth}}$ = 0.1–1.5), impactor size (L $L$ = 1–1,000 km), and core size ratio (Rcore/R ${R}_{\text{core}}/R$ = 0.2–0.8) using a combination of parameterized convection models and fully dynamical 2D impact simulations.

Analysis of Habitability and Stellar Habitable Zones from Observed Exoplanets
The investigation of exoplanetary habitability is integral to advancing our knowledge of extraterrestrial life potential and detailing the environmental conditions of distant worlds. In this analysis, we explore the properties of exoplanets situated with

Transiting Exoplanet Studies and Community Targets for JWST's Early Release Science Program [PDF]
The James Webb Space Telescope will revolutionize transiting exoplanet atmospheric science due to its capability for continuous, long-duration observations and its larger collecting area, spectral coverage, and spectral resolution compared to existing ...
