A Metal-poor Atmosphere with a Hot Interior for a Young Sub-Neptune Progenitor: JWST/NIRSpec Transmission Spectrum of V1298 Tau b

The Astronomical Journal
We present the JWST/NIRSpec G395H transmission spectrum of the young (10–30 Myr) transiting planet V1298 Tau b (9.85 ± 0.35 R _⊕ , T _eq  = 670 K). Combined Hubble Space Telescope and JWST observations reveal a haze-free, H/He-dominated atmosphere with a

Oxidation of the Interiors of Carbide Exoplanets

The Planetary Science Journal, 2020
Astrophysical measurements have shown that some stars have sufficiently high carbon-to-oxygen ratios such that the planets they host would be mainly composed of carbides instead of silicates.

Predicting Nitrogen Isotope Fractionation in Nitrate Deposition on Early Mars

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Noachian and early Hesperian Mars were likely warm and wet, with an atmosphere abundant in molecular nitrogen. The recent discovery of nitrate deposits in the Yellowknife Bay mudstones at Gale Crater confirm the existence of nitrogen oxides (NOX) on Noachian Mars. The processes responsible for the production of these nitrates would fractionate

Magnetic and tidal interactions in spin evolution of exoplanets [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008
AbstractThe axis-rotational evolution of exoplanets on close orbits strongly depends on their magnetic and tidal interactions with the parent stars. Impulsive perturbations from a star created by periodical activity may accumulate with time and lead to significant long-term perturbations of the planet spin evolution.

On the Detection of Low‐Frequency Planetary Radio Emission With an Orbiting Interferometer

Radio Science, Volume 61, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The magnetized planets of the outer Solar System produce kilometric radio emissions at very low frequencies (<1 ${< } 1\,$MHz). They reveal the planetary magnetic dynamics and their interaction with the solar wind. Those radio emissions can also serve as a proxy for interplanetary space weather monitoring.

Friends Not Foes: Strong Correlation between Inner Super-Earths and Outer Gas Giants

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The connection between outer gas giants and inner super-Earths reflects their formation and evolutionary histories. Past work exploring this link has suggested a tentative positive correlation between these two populations, but these studies have been ...

Advancing Heliophysics and Space Weather Modeling Through Open Science

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract We present a community‐wide effort to develop a strategy and action plan to advance heliophysics and space weather modeling through open science. While open science has the potential to enhance the quality and pace of scientific discovery, its application to scientific modeling requires more careful consideration regarding open data and open ...

The Formation of Ultra-short-period Planets under the Influence of the Nearby Planetary Companions

The Astrophysical Journal
Ultra-short-period (USP) planets, defined as those with orbital periods shorter than 1 day, provide valuable insights into planetary evolution under strong stellar tidal interactions.

Rotation‐Controlled Diurnal Evolution of Uranus' Asymmetric Bow Shock at Equinox

AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract Uranus possesses the most extreme magnetic and rotational geometry in the solar system, resulting in a uniquely dynamic and asymmetric interaction between its magnetosphere and the solar wind. Here we investigate the diurnal evolution of the Uranian bow shock (BS) at equinox using global multifluid magnetohydrodynamic simulations constrained ...
