Obliquity Evolution of the Potentially Habitable Exoplanet Kepler-62f [PDF]

open access: yesAstrobiology, 2020
Variations in the axial tilt, or obliquity, of terrestrial planets can affect their climates and therefore their habitability. Kepler-62f is a 1.4 R ⊕ planet orbiting within the habitable zone of its K2 dwarf host star.

Atmospheric Escape and the Evolution of Close-In Exoplanets [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2019
Exoplanets with substantial hydrogen/helium atmospheres have been discovered in abundance, many residing extremely close to their parent stars. The extreme irradiation levels that these atmospheres experience cause them to undergo hydrodynamic atmospheric escape.

The Possible Evolution of an Exoplanet’s Atmosphere

open access: yesEos, 2021
Scientific sleuths explore data gathered trillions of kilometers away and put forth different, and often conflicting, ideas to reconstruct the gaseous envelope on a distant rocky exoplanet, GJ 1132 b.

The Evolution of Atmospheric Escape of Highly Irradiated Gassy Exoplanets

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2021
AbstractAtmospheric escape has traditionally been observed using hydrogen Lyman-α transits, but more recent detections utilise the metastable helium triplet lines at 1083nm. Capable of being observed from the ground, this helium signature offers new possibilities for studying atmospheric escape.

Habitable Zone Lifetime of Exoplanets around Main Sequence Stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Funding: Dean's Scholarship at the University of East Anglia.The potential habitability of newly discovered exoplanets is initially assessed by determining whether their orbits fall within the circumstellar habitable zone of their star.

Exoplanet characterization using conditional invertible neural networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Context. The characterization of the interior of an exoplanet is an inverse problem. The solution requires statistical methods such as Bayesian inference.

Exoplanet status report: Observation, characterization and evolution of exoplanets and their host stars

open access: yesSolar System Research, 2010
After the discovery of more than 400 planets beyond our Solar System, the characterization of exoplanets as well as their host stars can be considered as one of the fastest growing fields in space science during the past decade. The characterization of exoplanets can only be carried out in a well coordinated interdisciplinary way which connects ...

Exoplanet imaging data challenge: benchmarking the various image processing methods for exoplanet detection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The Exoplanet Imaging Data Challenge is a community-wide effort meant to offer a platform for a fair and common comparison of image processing methods designed for exoplanet direct detection. For this purpose, it gathers on a dedicated repository (Zenodo)
