The Astronomical JournalThe Kepler mission enabled us to look at the intrinsic population of exoplanets within our galaxy. In period-radius space, the distribution of the intrinsic population of planets contains structure that can trace planet formation and evolution history ...

The CoRoT Exoplanet program : status & results [PDF]
, 2011 The CoRoT satellite is the first instrument hunting for planets from space. We will review the status of the CoRoT/Exoplanet program. We will then present the CoRoT exoplanetary systems and how they widen the range of properties of the close-in ...

Comparing Geochemical and Geodynamical Models of Plume and Ridge Mantle Source Composition
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 8, August 2025.Abstract We use a multidisciplinary approach to investigate how the parameter space of mantle convection affects present‐day mantle composition. We compare 22 forward geodynamical mantle circulation model simulations against 24 variants of a geochemical inversion model of the global radiogenic isotope data set of mantle‐derived lavas.

Boundaries of photosynthesis: adaptations of carbon fixation in extreme environments
FEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 7, Page 1028-1040, July 2025.Photosynthesis faces challenges from environmental extremes of temperature, pH, and salinity, limiting gas diffusion, modifying membrane fluidity, and destabilizing photochemical and biochemical reactions. Photosynthetic organisms have evolved unique adaptations overcoming these stresses and maintaining their photosynthetic activity.

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

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.

Conclusive Evidence for a Population of Water Worlds around M Dwarfs Remains Elusive
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The population of small, close-in exoplanets is bifurcated into super-Earths and sub-Neptunes. We calculate physically motivated mass–radius relations for sub-Neptunes, with rocky cores and H/He-dominated atmospheres, accounting for their thermal ...

Astrobiology and astrophilosophy: subsuming or bifurcating diciplines? [PDF]
, 2019 Initially, astrobiology subsumed into philosophy. However, philosophy has increasingly subsumed into astrobiology concurrent with it steadily becoming an observational and experimental activity that mainly focuses on the link between life and the cosmos,
