Modeling of Exoplanet Atmospheres
, 2017 Spectrally characterizing exoplanet atmospheres will be one of the fastest moving astronomical disciplines in the years to come. Especially the upcoming James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will provide spectral measurements from the near- to mid-infrared of unprecedented precision.

True Polar Wander of Lava Worlds
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 As one of the most detectable types of terrestrial planets, lava worlds are highly prioritized targets for exoplanet atmosphere characterization since their atmospheres may reveal what they are made of and how.

The MgI line: a new probe of the atmospheres of evaporating exoplanets
, 2014 Transit observations of HD209458b in the UV revealed signatures of neutral magnesium escaping the planet's upper atmosphere. The absorption detected in the MgI line provides unprecedented information on the physical conditions at the altitude where the ...

From Tape Reels to Global Access: A History and Future Vision of NASA's Scientific Data Management
Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 9, September 2025.Abstract Since its creation in the late 1950s, NASA has collected space science data and information that span astrophysics, Earth science, planetary science, heliophysics, and biological and physical sciences. While these data were critical to NASA's objective of expanding human knowledge of space, the early days of scientific data and information ...

Exoplanet Atmospheres with JWST
, 2022 Planetary atmospheres are diverse. They hold key insights into the complex physics and chemistry that has shaped them through formation. In this talk I focus on the understanding we have gained on exoplanet atmospheres from transiting studies, including the importance of wide wavelength coverage.

Types of Gaseous Envelopes of "Hot Jupiter" Exoplanets
, 2013 As a rule, the orbital velocities of "hot Jupiters," i.e., exoplanets with masses comparable to the mass of Jupiter and orbital semi-major axes less than 0.1 AU, are supersonic relative to the stellar wind, resulting in the formation of a bow shock.

Sound Velocity and Grüneisen Parameter in Shock‐Melted Silica at Deep Earth Pressures
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.Abstract Silica is a primary component of rocky planet interiors and its melt properties are important for understanding planetary formation and differentiation, magma oceans, and the deep mantle. Although well understood in the solid state, the high‐pressure behavior of liquid silica is poorly constrained at lower mantle pressures.
