We present design considerations for animated transitions of the appearance of 3D spatial datasets in a hybrid Augmented Reality‐desktop context. Such hybrid interfaces combine both traditional and immersive displays to facilitate the exploration of 2D and 3D data representations in the environment in which they are best displayed.

Fleeting but Not Forgotten: The Imprint of Escaping Hydrogen Atmospheres on Super-Earth Interiors
Small, close-in exoplanets are divided into two subpopulations: super-Earths and sub-Neptunes. Most super-Earths are thought to have lost their primordially accreted hydrogen-dominated atmospheres via thermally driven winds.

The chemical composition of Earth's atmosphere has undergone substantial evolution over the course of its history. It is possible, even likely, that terrestrial planets in other planetary systems have undergone similar changes; consequently, the age ...

The link between disc dispersal by photoevaporation and the semi-major axis distribution of exoplanets [PDF]
We investigate the influence of photoevaporation of protoplanetary discs on the final distribution of exoplanets semi-major axis distances. We model giant planet migration in viscous discs affected by photoevaporation driven by either pure EUV or soft X ...

Magnetic field evolution of hot exoplanets
ABSTRACT Numerical simulations have shown that the strength of planetary magnetic fields depends on the convective energy flux emerging from planetary interiors. Here, we model the interior structure of gas giant planets using mesa, to determine the convective energy flux that can drive the generation of magnetic field. This flux is then

TOI-836 is a ∼2–3 Gyr K dwarf with an inner super Earth ( R = 1.7 R _⊕ , P = 3.8 days) and an outer mini-Neptune ( R = 2.6 R _⊕ , P = 8.6 days). JWST/NIRSpec 2.8–5.2 μ m transmission spectra are flat for both planets.

Patsourakos et al. (Astrophys. J. 817, 14, 2016) and Patsourakos and Georgoulis (Astron. Astrophys. 595, A121, 2016) introduced a method to infer the axial magnetic field in flux-rope coronal mass ejections (CMEs) in the solar corona and farther away in ...

Long-term evolution of exoplanet systems
AbstractIn this Review, I discuss recent developments on the long-term dynamical evolution of exoplanet systems, focusing on how distinctive dynamical processes may have shaped the orbital architectures of observed populations. I include three applications that highlight part of my own work. First, I examine the high-eccentricity tidal migration of hot

Understanding exoplanet formation, structure and evolution in 2010 [PDF]
AbstractIn this short review, we summarize our present understanding (and non-understanding) of exoplanet formation, structure and evolution, in the light of the most recent discoveries. Recent observations of transiting massive brown dwarfs seem to remarkably confirm the predicted theoretical mass-radius relationship in this domain.

The 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 ...
