Satellites and Small Bodies With ALMA: Insights Into Solar System Formation and Evolution

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Our understanding of the formation and evolution of planetary systems has made major advances in the past decade. This progress has been driven in large part by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), which has given us an unprecedented view of solar system bodies themselves, and of the structure and chemistry of forming ...

DIRECT MEASURE OF RADIATIVE AND DYNAMICAL PROPERTIES OF AN EXOPLANET ATMOSPHERE [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2016
ABSTRACT Two decades after the discovery of 51 Peg b, the formation processes and atmospheres of short-period gas giants remain poorly understood. Observations of eccentric systems provide key insights on those topics as they can illuminate how a planet’s atmosphere responds to changes in incident flux.

Exoplanet Occurrence Rate with Age for FGK Stars in Kepler

The Astronomical Journal
We measure the exoplanet occurrence rate as a function of isochrone and gyrochronology ages using confirmed and candidate planets identified in Q1–17 DR25 Kepler data. We employ Kepler's pipeline detection efficiency to correct for the expected number of

Community Voices on the Future of Radiation Belt Research: A Summary of the 2024 GEM Radiation Belt Focus Group Round‐Table Discussion

Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Earth's radiation belts are the regions where highly energetic charged particles are trapped by Earth's magnetic field, posing significant risks to the satellites and other space‐based technologies. Understanding the dynamics of the radiation belts is critical not only for advancing fundamental plasma physics but also for predicting and ...

Radiation Transport Through the Martian Atmosphere as a Function of the Zenith Angle

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The topographic influence of the radiation environment on the Martian surface radiation is crucial for future human exploration. Topographic maps help assess radiation flux variations, aiding in hazard evaluation. Creating a global radiation map requires accounting for seasonally varying atmospheric density, heliospheric modulation, and ...

Evolution of Terrestrial Planetary Bodies and Implications for Habitability

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract The terrestrial planetary bodies of our solar system—Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars—share a common origin through nebular accretion and early magma ocean differentiation, yet they diverged significantly in geological evolution, tectonic regimes, and habitability.

Neuromorphic Computing with Memcapacitors: Advancements, Challenges, and Future Directions

Advanced Electronic Materials, Volume 11, Issue 18, November 4, 2025.
Neuromorphic computing reduces energy costs by integrating memory and processing in event‐driven architectures, achieving energy usage as low as 10–30 pJ per operation for memcapacitor‐based synapses. Memcapacitors are reviewed as strong contenders for neuromorphic computing, enhancing AI acceleration through charge‐based computations, high resistance,

A Dynamic Scheme to Assess Habitability of Exoplanets

, 2012
In the next few years, the number of catalogued exoplanets will be counted in the thousands and with it the need will arise to prioritize them in regard to habitability and the potential presence of life. Here, we suggest a first attempt of a dynamic scheme for classification based on our current understanding of parameters that are consistent and ...

Breaking Giant Chains: Early-stage Instabilities in Long-period Giant Planet Systems

The Astrophysical Journal
Orbital evolution is a critical process that sculpts planetary systems, particularly during their early stages where planet–disk interactions are expected to lead to the formation of resonant chains.

Mercury's Altered Magnetosphere During a Sub‐Alfvénic ICME Event: MESSENGER Observations and Inferred Asymmetric Alfvén Wing Formation From Global MHD Simulations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract We present observations of a rare configuration of Mercury's magnetosphere in response to sub‐Alfvénic upstream conditions, driven by an interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) that impacted the planet on 1 May 2013. Using data from the Mercury Surface, Space Environment, Geochemistry, and Ranging (MESSENGER) spacecraft, supported by a ...
