The Astronomical JournalNear-resonant Kepler planets are dynamically hot, as evidenced by nonzero transit timing variation (TTV) phases, indicating that free eccentricities are not damped. Recent observations suggest that circulating near-resonant planets tend to be dynamically

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2026.Abstract Low clouds (LC) are the largest source of uncertainty in the climate response to increased CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$ in global climate models. This is due to the multitude of factors that affect their behavior and how these are characterized across models.

Impacting Atmospheres: How Late-stage Pollution Alters Exoplanet Composition
The Astrophysical JournalThe atmospheric composition of exoplanets is often considered as a probe of the planet’s formation conditions. How exactly the initial chemical memory may be altered from the birth to the final state of the planet, however, remains unknown.

Out There No One Has a Right to Die
Bioethics, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 565-572, July 2026.ABSTRACT The eventual goal of space exploration is to colonize exoplanets and their moons outside our solar system. This is a dangerous and immoral endeavour. The extraterrestrial life forms encountered would be hostile, vulnerable or both, and the descendants of the original pioneers would be involuntarily exposed to hazardous conditions and ...

Physical constraints for the evolution of life on exoplanets
, 2018 Recently, many Earth-sized planets have been discovered around stars other than the Sun that might possess appropriate conditions for life. The development of theoretical methods for assessing the putative habitability of these worlds is of paramount importance, since it serves the dual purpose of identifying and quantifying what types of biosignatures

The Not-so Dramatic Effect of Advective Flows on Gas Accretion
The Astrophysical JournalSuper-Earths and mini-Neptunes are the most common types of exoplanets discovered, yet the physics of their formation are still debated. Standard core accretion models in gas-rich environments find that typical mini-Neptune mass planets would blow up ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.Abstract Mercury experiences the most intense and variable solar wind (SW) conditions in the solar system due to its close, eccentric orbit about the Sun. In addition to variation driven by coronal source and solar cycle, the SW arriving at Mercury varies periodically as the planet's heliocentric distance changes by over 50% per orbit.

An Outer Giant Planet or Brown Dwarf in the 51 Pegasi System?
The Astronomical Journal51 Pegasi harbors the first confirmed extrasolar planet orbiting a Sun-like star. Decades of continued radial velocity (RV) observations have since uncovered signatures of an additional distant companion in the system from a shallow radial acceleration ...

Effects of Hot Oxygen Corona on Ion Escape From Venus‐Like Planets
Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract Due to the lack of a significant planetary magnetic field, the upper atmospheres of Venus‐like planets interact directly with the stellar wind. Therefore, thermal atomic oxygen in the thermosphere and hot oxygen in the corona produced by non‐thermal processes in the upper atmosphere act as a source of ion pickup loss.
