A Radiative-convective Model for Terrestrial Planets with Self-consistent Patchy Clouds

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
Clouds are ubiquitous: they arise for every solar system planet that possesses an atmosphere and have also been suggested as a leading mechanism for obscuring spectral features in exoplanet observations.

Research Progress on Atmospheric Turbulence Perception and Correction Based on Adaptive Optics and Deep Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Photonics Research, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2025.
This work presents a systematic review of atmospheric turbulence fundamentals, including theoretical formulations and adaptive optics‐based mitigation strategies. This includes an in‐depth examination of the devices, theories, and methodologies associated with traditional correction approaches.

ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY OF VENUS-LIKE EXOPLANETS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
We use thermodynamic calculations to model atmospheric chemistry on terrestrial exoplanets that are hot enough for chemical equilibira between the atmosphere and lithosphere, as on Venus. The results of our calculations place constraints on abundances of spectroscopically observable gases, the surface temperature and pressure, and the mineralogy of the

Bayesian Analysis for Remote Biosignature Identification on exoEarths (BARBIE). I. Using Grid-based Nested Sampling in Coronagraphy Observation Simulations for H2O

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Detecting H _2 O in exoplanet atmospheres is the first step on the path to determining planet habitability. Coronagraphic design currently limits the observing strategy used to detect H _2 O, requiring the choice of specific bandpasses to optimize ...

The Influence of Interior Structure and Thermal State on Impact Melt Generation Upon Large Impacts Onto Terrestrial Planets

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
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.

Helium Absorption at 1083 nm from Extended Exoplanet Atmospheres: Dependence on Stellar Radiation [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
Strong absorption signatures in the helium line at 1083 nm have recently been detected in transmission spectra of several close-in exoplanets. This absorption line originates from neutral helium atoms in an excited, metastable 23S state.

Searching for Neutral Hydrogen Escape from the 120 Myr Old Sub-Neptune HIP94235b using HST

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
HIP94235 b, a 120 Myr old sub-Neptune, provides us the unique opportunity to study mass loss at a pivotal stage of the system’s evolution: the end of a 100 Myr old phase of intense XUV irradiation.

Field‐Aligned Currents and Auroral Precipitation During the Terrestrial Alfvén Wing State

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 12, 28 June 2025.
Abstract When sub‐Alfvénic (Alfvén Mach number MA< ${\mathrm{M}}_{A}< $1) plasmas impact Earth, Alfvén wings (AWs) develop. A Multiscale Atmosphere Geospace Environment simulation of the April 2023 storm, validated by Active Magnetosphere and Planetary Electrodynamics Response Experiment data, reveals the field‐aligned‐current (FAC) generation ...

Thermal Phase Curves in Hot Gas Giant Exoplanets Exhibit a Complex Dependence on Planetary Properties

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a catalog of uniformly processed 3.6 μ m and 4.5 μ m band exoplanet thermal phase curves based on Infrared Array Camera observations obtained from the Spitzer Heritage Archive.
