Using dimers to measure biosignatures and atmospheric pressure for terrestrial exoplanets

open access: yes, 2014
We present a new method to probe atmospheric pressure on Earth-like planets using (O-O) dimers in the near-infrared. We also show that dimer features could be the most readily detectable biosignatures for Earth-like atmospheres and may even be detectable

VaTEST. II. Statistical Validation of 11 TESS-detected Exoplanets Orbiting K-type Stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is an all-sky survey mission designed to find transiting exoplanets orbiting nearby bright stars. It has identified more than 329 transiting exoplanets, and almost 6000 candidates remain unvalidated. In

Detection of Exoplanets with Machine Learning Techniques Through Transit Light-curve Analysis

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Exoplanet detection is an active research area in astronomy. As the volume of astronomical data increases, there is a need for methods that can automate the data processing pipeline efficiently.

Mission Design of an Aperture-Synthetic Interferometer System for Space-Based Exoplanet Exploration

open access: yesSpace: Science & Technology, 2022
In recent years, exoplanet detection has become the technological frontier in the field of astronomy, because it provides evidence of the origin of life and the future human habitable exoplanet.

Evolution of novel activation functions in neural network training for astronomy data: habitability classification of exoplanets

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal Special Topics, 2020
Quantification of habitability is a complex task. Previous attempts at measuring habitability are well documented. Classification of exoplanets, on the other hand, is a different approach and depends on quality of training data available in habitable exoplanet catalogs.

Leveraging Multimodal Large Language Models to Analyse Student Exploration Behaviours in Educational Game Environments

open access: yesJournal of Computer Assisted Learning, Volume 42, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Video data provides rich opportunities to examine student behaviour in game‐based learning environments, capturing not only observable actions but also subtle indicators of cognitive engagement. However, traditional video analysis is labor‐intensive, and current applications of AI to this task are limited by models trained on ...

Searching for Helium Escape and a Low-density Atmosphere Around the 120 Myr Old Sub-Neptune HIP94235b Using CRIRES+

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Atmospheric mass loss is thought to induce the bimodality in the small planet population as we observe it today. Observationally, active mass loss can be traced by excess absorption in spectral lines of lighter species, such as the hydrogen Ly α line and

Mercury's Eccentric Orbit as a Driver of Significant “Seasonal” Change in Upstream Solar Wind Forcing

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Mercury experiences the most intense and variable solar wind (SW) conditions in the solar system due to its close, eccentric orbit about the Sun. In addition to variation driven by coronal source and solar cycle, the SW arriving at Mercury varies periodically as the planet's heliocentric distance changes by over 50% per orbit.
