A Solar Analog Model for Decrease in Far Ultraviolet Irradiance Under a Grand Minimum

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Solar analog field stars having a range of magnetic activity can provide an estimate of solar spectral irradiance (SSI) variability relevant to understanding the Sun's influence on terrestrial climate. This approach is particularly useful for far ultraviolet (FUV) irradiance that cannot be observed from the Earth surface.

Individual and Statistical Characterization of the Giant Exoplanet Population [PDF]

, 2021
The field of observational exoplanet astronomy has seen tremendous progress over the span of only a few decades. Now, we find ourselves at the dawn of a new era: the characterization of distant worlds.

Determining the Detectability of H2O with Photometric Observations Using Bayesian Analysis for Remote Biosignature Identification on exo-Earths (BARBIE)

The Astronomical Journal
We examine the detectability of water (H _2 O) in the reflected-light spectrum of an Earth-like exoplanet assuming a photometric observational approach rather than spectroscopic. By quantifying the detectability as a function of normalized exposure time,

Statistical Scale Analyses of a Diurnal Periodicity in Auroral Kilometric Radiation, Observed by Wind/WAVES

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The Earth's strongest natural radio emission is Auroral Kilometric Radiation (AKR), which is correlated with auroral intensity, and is a barometer for space weather. AKR is generated by the electron cyclotron maser instability, with sources on auroral field lines. Previous work on AKR and radio emissions from other planets (or stars) points to

The HD 191939 Exoplanet System is Well Aligned and Flat

The Astronomical Journal
We report the sky-projected spin–orbit angle λ for HD 191939 b, the innermost planet in a six-planet system, using Keck/KPF to detect the Rossiter–McLaughlin (RM) effect.

Exoplanet Research with the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) [PDF]

, 2017
When the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) was conceived and its first science cases defined, exoplanets had not been detected. Later studies, however, showed that optical and near-infrared photometric and spectrophotometric follow-up observations during planetary transits and eclipses are feasible with SOFIA's instrumentation ...

Inferring Io's Internal Properties by Combining Gravity Measurements and Volcanic Activity

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract With its extreme geological activity, Io represents an archetype for tidally heated exoplanets/moons and provides insight into early stages of terrestrial planet evolution. Decades of ground‐based observations and multiple space missions have refined our understanding of Io, yet it remains debated where inside Io the tidal heating takes place.
