Impact of variable photospheric radius on exoplanet atmospheric retrievals

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2022
ABSTRACT Inverse techniques are used to extract information about an exoplanet’s atmosphere. These techniques are prone to biased results if the appropriate forward model is not used. One assumption used in a forward model is to assume that the radius of the planet is constant with wavelength; however, a more realistic assumption is that

Variability of Known Exoplanet Host Stars Observed by TESS

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Both direct and indirect methods of exoplanet detection rely upon detailed knowledge of the potential host stars. Such stellar characterization allows for accurate extraction of planetary properties, as well as contributing to our overall understanding ...

Evolutionary and functional relationships between plant and microbial C<sub>1</sub> metabolism in terrestrial ecosystems. [PDF]

open access: yesNew Phytol
Summary One‐carbon (C1) metabolism, centered on the universal methyl donor S‐adenosyl methionine (SAM), plays critical roles in biosynthesis, redox regulation, and stress responses across plants and microbes. A recently proposed photosynthetic C1 pathway links SAM methyl groups directly to RuBisCO‐mediated CO2 assimilation and integrates with nitrogen ...

General Circulation Model Constraints on the Detectability of the CO2-CH4 Biosignature Pair on TRAPPIST-1e with JWST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
Terrestrial exoplanets such as TRAPPIST-1e will be observed in a new capacity with the JWST/Near Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec), which is expected to be able to detect CO _2 , CH _4 , and O _2 signals, if present, with multiple coadded transit ...

Magnetohydrodynamical Torsional Oscillations from Thermoresistive Instability in Hot Jupiters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Hot Jupiter atmospheres may be subject to a thermoresistive instability where an increase in the electrical conductivity due to ohmic heating results in runaway of the atmospheric temperature.

The Ultraviolet Radiation Environment Around M dwarf Exoplanet Host Stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The spectral and temporal behavior of exoplanet host stars is a critical input to models of the chemistry and evolution of planetary atmospheres. At present, little observational or theoretical basis exists for understanding the ultraviolet spectra of M ...

SPECULOOS exoplanet search and its prototype on TRAPPIST [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
One of the most significant goals of modern science is establishing whether life exists around other suns. The most direct path towards its achievement is the detection and atmospheric characterization of terrestrial exoplanets with potentially habitable
