Mesoscale Modeling of Titan’s Shangri‐La Region: The Impact of Surface Properties on Winds

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract The knowledge of Titan’s near‐surface atmosphere is sparse. The Huygens descent probe measured winds, and the multiple dune field observations and possible dust storms suggest active near‐surface dynamics. The Dragonfly rotorcraft lander will fly close to the surface in the Shangri‐La region, near the Huygens landing site, where complex dune ...

A Panchromatic Characterization of the Evening and Morning Atmosphere of WASP-107 b: Composition and Cloud Variations, and Insight into the Effect of Stellar Contamination

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Limb-resolved transmission spectroscopy has the potential to transform our understanding of exoplanetary atmospheres. By separately measuring the transmission spectra of the evening and morning limbs, these atmospheric regions can be individually ...

Propagation Dynamics of Fast Electron Beam and Its Electron Cyclotron Maser Emission

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Fast electron beams (FEBs) and coherent radio bursts both are very common plasma activity phenomena in the cosmos. The electron cyclotron maser (ECM) instability driven by FEBs trapped in magnetic fields can directly amplify radio wave radiations.

How uncertainties on stellar atmospheric parameters impact exoplanet studies? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Exoplanet properties depend on how well the host star is characterized. For instance, the stellar atmospheric parameters (i.e., effective temperature, surface gravity and overall metallicity) are needed to derive the stellar mass and radius by using ...

Helium Escape in Context: Comparative Signatures of Four Close-in Exoplanets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Observations of escaping atmospheres on close-in exoplanets show a wide range in the strength and morphology of He I 10830 Å and H I absorption. Scaling relations attempt to link the He I signal to X-ray and UV irradiation, mass loss, and bulk planetary ...

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

open access: yesEarth 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.

How Landmass Distribution Influences the Atmospheric Dynamics of Tidally Locked Terrestrial Exoplanets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Abstract Interpretation of the ongoing efforts to simulate the atmospheres of potentially habitable terrestrial exoplanets requires that we understand the underlying dynamics and chemistry of such objects to a much greater degree than 1D or even simple 3D models enable.

Metal Oxide Clusters in Gas-giant Exoplanet Atmospheres

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
This study investigates the thermal stability and absorption of metal oxide clusters in exoplanetary atmospheres. Utilizing our thermochemical data, we analyze eight distinct cluster families: magnesium oxide (MgO), silicon monoxide (SiO), titanium ...

The Runaway Greenhouse Effect on Hycean Worlds

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Hycean worlds are a proposed subset of sub-Neptune exoplanets with substantial water inventories, liquid surface oceans, and extended hydrogen-dominated atmospheres favorable for habitability.
