Radiative Transfer for Exoplanet Atmospheres

, 2017
Remote sensing of the atmospheres of distant worlds motivates a firm understanding of radiative transfer. In this review, we provide a pedagogical cookbook that describes the principal ingredients needed to perform a radiative transfer calculation and ...

Sub-Neptunes Are Drier than They Seem: Rethinking the Origins of Water-rich Worlds

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Recent claims of biosignature gases in sub-Neptune atmospheres have renewed interest in water-rich sub-Neptunes with surface oceans, often referred to as Hycean planets. These planets are hypothesized to form beyond the snow line, accreting large amounts

The Effects of Non-ideal Mixing in Planetary Magma Oceans and Atmospheres

The Astrophysical Journal
Sub-Neptunes with hydrogen-rich envelopes are expected to sustain long-lived magma oceans that continuously exchange volatiles with their overlying atmospheres.

The Runaway Greenhouse Effect on Hycean Worlds

The 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.

Lithium Niobate Quadratic Integrated Nonlinear Photonics: Enabling Ultra‐Wide Bandwidth and Ultrafast Photonic Engines

Nanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 9, 13 May 2026.
This perspective surveys emerging quantum and classical photonic applications across operating wavelengths and timescales, highlighting persistent technological gaps in integrated light sources. We examine the unique advantages of quadratic nonlinear photonics on the thin‐film lithium niobate (TFLN) platform and discuss strategies for realizing ...

Thermoelastic Contraction as a Suppressor of Atmospheric Escape in Close-in Exoplanets

The Astrophysical Journal
The survival of volatile-rich atmospheres on close-in exoplanets challenges classical escape models. We identify a fully classical, interior-driven correction: thermoelastic contraction of the planetary mantle slightly increases the gravitational binding
