Reduced Water Loss due to Photochemistry on Terrestrial Planets in the Runaway Greenhouse Phase around Pre-main-sequence M Dwarfs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Terrestrial planets currently in the habitable zone around M dwarfs are estimated to have been in runaway greenhouse conditions for up to ∼1 Gyr due to the long-term pre-main-sequence phase of M dwarfs.

Water Evolution and Inventories of Super-Earths Orbiting Late M Dwarfs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Super-Earths orbiting M dwarf stars may be the most common habitable planets in the Universe. However, their habitability is threatened by intense irradiation from their host stars, which drives the escape of water to space and can lead to surface ...

Possible Evidence for the Presence of Volatiles on the Warm Super-Earth TOI-270 b

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The search for atmospheres on rocky exoplanets is a crucial step in understanding the processes driving atmosphere formation, retention, and loss. Past studies have revealed the existence of planets interior to the radius valley with densities lower than

Tracing the Winds: A Uniform Interpretation of Helium Escape in Exoplanets from Archival Spectroscopic Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Over the past decade, observations of evaporating exoplanets have become increasingly common, driven by the discovery of the near-infrared helium-triplet line as a powerful probe of atmospheric escape.

The Implications of Thermal Hydrodynamic Atmospheric Escape on the TRAPPIST-1 Planets

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
JWST observations of the seven-planet TRAPPIST-1 system will provide an excellent opportunity to test outcomes of stellar-driven evolution of terrestrial planetary atmospheres, including atmospheric escape, ocean loss, and abiotic oxygen production ...

Revised Masses for Low-density Planets Orbiting the Disordered M-dwarf System TOI-1266

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present an analysis of 126 new radial velocity measurements from the MAROON-X spectrograph to investigate the TOI-1266 system, which hosts two known transiting sub-Neptunes at 10.8 and 18.8 days.

The Age and High-energy Environment of the Very Young Transiting Exoplanet TOI 1227b

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The mid-M star TOI 1227 hosts among the youngest known transiting exoplanets. We have conducted new X-ray imaging and optical spectroscopic observations of TOI 1227 aimed at ascertaining its age and the influence of its high-energy radiation on the ...

Assessing Core-powered Mass Loss in the Context of Early Boil-off: Minimal Long-lived Mass Loss for the Sub-Neptune Population

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We develop a Python-based state-of-the-art sub-Neptune evolution model that incorporates both the post-formation boil-off at young ages ≤1 Myr and long-lived core-powered mass loss (∼Gyr) from interior cooling.
