Direct Evidence of Photochemistry in an Exoplanet Atmosphere

open access: yes, 2022
Photochemistry is a fundamental process of planetary atmospheres that is integral to habitability, atmospheric composition and stability, and aerosol formation. However, no unambiguous photochemical products have been detected in exoplanet atmospheres to

The Not-so Dramatic Effect of Advective Flows on Gas Accretion

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Super-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 ...

Massive Rocky Planets May Suppress Deep Melting

open access: yesAGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Melting properties of silicates are critical to understanding the thermal evolution of rocky planetary interiors. In the deep mantles of massive rocky planets, post‐post‐spinel Mg2SiO4 ${\text{Mg}}_{2}{\text{SiO}}_{4}$ is potentially one of the most abundant mineral phases, yet its melting behavior remains unconstrained. Here, we determine the

An Outer Giant Planet or Brown Dwarf in the 51 Pegasi System?

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
51 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 ...

The Complexity of Deep Aqueous Fluids in Planetary Ultramafic Mantles

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Planetary volatiles cycle through a planet's crust, mantle, and atmosphere, playing a crucial role in surface processes and habitability. Discussions of planetary volatiles traditionally focus on water, carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur, but fluids in contact with silicate rocks and ultramafic mantles can contain significant amounts of magnesium ...

Revised exoplanet radii and habitability using Gaia Data Release 2

open access: yes, 2018
Accurate stellar properties are crucial for determining exoplanet characteristics. Gaia DR2 presents revised distances, luminosities, and radii for 1.6 billion stars. Here, we report the calculation of revised radii and densities for 320 exoplanets using

HARPS-N @ TNG, two year harvesting data : performances and results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The planet hunter HARPS-N[1], in operation at the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG)[13] from April 2012 is a highresolution spectrograph designed to achieve a very high radial velocity precision measurement thanks to an ultra stable environment and in a

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

open access: yesThe 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

Interactions of Sublimated Frost With Volcanic Plumes: Modeling Io's SO2 Atmosphere Using the DSMC Method

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Io's tenuous atmosphere consists primarily of sulfur dioxide (SO2 ${\text{SO}}_{2}$) with observed column densities of approximately 1016−1017 $1{0}^{16}-1{0}^{17}$ cm−2 ${\text{cm}}^{-2}$. However, it remains uncertain whether the sublimation of SO2 ${\text{SO}}_{2}$ surface frost or volcanic outgassing is the primary source of the SO2 ...
