Evolution of Terrestrial Planetary Bodies and Implications for Habitability

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract The terrestrial planetary bodies of our solar system—Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars—share a common origin through nebular accretion and early magma ocean differentiation, yet they diverged significantly in geological evolution, tectonic regimes, and habitability.

Mercury's Altered Magnetosphere During a Sub‐Alfvénic ICME Event: MESSENGER Observations and Inferred Asymmetric Alfvén Wing Formation From Global MHD Simulations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract We present observations of a rare configuration of Mercury's magnetosphere in response to sub‐Alfvénic upstream conditions, driven by an interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) that impacted the planet on 1 May 2013. Using data from the Mercury Surface, Space Environment, Geochemistry, and Ranging (MESSENGER) spacecraft, supported by a ...

Estimating the Mass Escaping Rates of Radius-valley-spanning Planets in the TOI-431 System via X-Ray and Ultraviolet Evaporation

The Astrophysical Journal
The TOI-431 system has three close-in exoplanets, which gives an ideal lab to study gas escape. In this study, we measure the X-ray and ultraviolet luminosity for TOI-431 with XMM-Newton’s European Photon Imaging Camera-pn and Optical/UV Monitor ...

The PEPSI Exoplanet Transit Survey (PETS). II. A Deep Search for Thermal Inversion Agents in KELT-20 b/MASCARA-2 b with Emission and Transmission Spectroscopy

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
Recent observations have shown that the atmospheres of ultrahot Jupiters (UHJs) commonly possess temperature inversions, where the temperature increases with increasing altitude.

Using Venus, Earth, and Mars to Understand Exoplanet Volatile and Climate Evolution

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Venus, Earth, and Mars exhibit a wide range of interactions between their deep interiors, surfaces, lower and upper atmospheres, and the Sun, with commensurate variations in the nature of their atmospheres and evolution of their volatiles. By examining these worlds' characteristics and behavior, we can gain some understanding of the breadth of

The K2 and TESS Synergy. II. Revisiting 26 Systems in the TESS Primary Mission

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
The legacy of NASA’s K2 mission has provided hundreds of transiting exoplanets that can be revisited by new and future facilities for further characterization, with a particular focus on studying the atmospheres of these systems. However, the majority of

Survey and Modeling of Windblown Ejecta Deposits on Venus

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Venus' thick atmosphere rotates in the same direction as the solid body, but ∼60 times faster. This atmospheric superrotation has produced dozens of windblown ejecta deposits (“parabolas”) on the surface of Venus. The formation and modification of parabolas is an interplay between impacts, aeolian modification, and atmospheric dynamics.

Evidence for a Natural Limit to Electron Space Radiation: An Application of Benford's Law

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Recent research has highlighted observational evidence for a natural limit to the severity of energetic electron differential fluxes in the Van Allen radiation belts. Here, we analyze the occurrence distributions of electron differential fluxes from the entire Van Allen Probes mission (2012–2019) to further investigate the energy dependence of
