Helium in the Extended Atmosphere of the Warm Superpuff TOI-1420b
The Astronomical JournalSuperpuffs are planets with exceptionally low densities ( ρ ≲ 0.1 g cm ^−3 ) and core masses ( M _c ≲ 5 M _⊕ ). Many lower-mass ( M _p ≲ 10 M _⊕ ) superpuffs are expected to be unstable to catastrophic mass loss via photoevaporation and/or boil-off ...

The Astrophysical Journal LettersThe recent discovery of “ultrahot” ( P < 1 day) Neptunes has come as a surprise: some of these planets have managed to retain gaseous envelopes despite being close enough to their host stars to trigger strong photoevaporation and/or Roche lobe overflow ...

APPLE: An Evolution Code for Modeling Giant Planets
The Astrophysical JournalWe introduce APPLE , a novel planetary evolution code designed specifically for the study of giant exoplanet and Jovian planet evolution in the era of Galileo, Juno, and Cassini. With APPLE , state-of-the-art equations of state for hydrogen, helium, ice,

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 Astronomical JournalExoplanet systems are thought to evolve on secular timescales over billions of years. This evolution is impossible to directly observe on human timescales in most individual systems.

Pushing the envelope of exoplanet evolution modelling
, 2021 Propelled by the discovery of the first exoplanet thirty years ago, the scientific community has rallied and made tremendous strides towards a full understand of the formation and evolution of planetary systems. During this period, over 4, 300 confirmed exoplanets have been detected, and the resulting dataset has driven a revolution by allowing for new

The Astrophysical Journal LettersThe ubiquity of “peas-in-a-pod” architectural patterns and the existence of the radius valley each presents a striking population-level trend for planets with R _p ≤ 4 R _⊕ that serves to place powerful constraints on the formation and evolution of these

Coupled Planetary Interior and Tidal Evolution
The Astrophysical JournalWe present a new planetary structure/thermal evolution model, designed for use in problems that couple orbital dynamics with planetary structure. We first benchmark our structural/thermal evolution calculations against the MESA stellar evolution code ...
