Galactic Cosmic Ray Ionization on Uranus; Geomagnetic Latitude Dependencies

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCRs) are a major source of atmospheric ionization, influencing ion abundance, aerosol formation, and electrical processes. GCR‐induced effects are expected to be more pronounced on Uranus than planets closer to the Sun for two reasons; reduced solar irradiance, and weaker solar modulation of incident GCR.

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

open access: yesProceedings 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.

Investigating the Origins of Hot Neptunes from Radial Velocity Data

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Hot Neptunes are extrasolar planets that are similar in size to Neptune in our solar system but are much closer to their host stars, completing an orbit in 10 days or less. The origin of hot Neptunes is not fully understood.

The timescale for giant planet formation : constraints from the rotational evolution of exoplanet host stars

open access: yes, 2008
The timescale over which planets may form in the circumstellar disks of young stars is one of the main issues of current planetary formation models. We present here new constraints on planet formation timescales derived from the rotational evolution of ...

Diurnal Variability Modulates Episodic Convection in Hothouse Climates Over Ocean and Swamp‐Like Surface Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Hot and moist “hothouse” climates occurred in Earth's past and are expected in Earth's far future climate, driven by increasing solar luminosity. In hothouse climate regimes, precipitation transitions from a quasi‐steady state, as in present‐day tropical convection, to an “episodic deluge” or relaxation‐oscillator (RO) regime where ...

Interior Evolution of Magma Oceans Exoplanets

open access: yes
The magma ocean (MO) phase typically describes the early stage of rocky planets, during which the entire planet is molten due to heat generated by accretion processes. In the case of short-period exoplanets inside the runaway greenhouse limit, this phase may last Gyrs, until the inventory of major greenhouse gasses, such as H2O and H2, is exhausted ...

Metal-enriched Atmospheres in Warm (Super- and Sub-) Neptunes Induced by Extreme Atmospheric Escape

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Planet formation impacts exoplanet atmospheres by accreting metals in solid form, leading to atmospheric carbon-to-oxygen ratios (C/O) and sulfur-to-nitrogen ratios (S/N) that deviate from those of their host stars. Recent observations indicate differing

CoRoT: harvest of the exoplanet program

open access: yes, 2013
One of the objectives of the CoRoT mission is the search for transiting extrasolar planets using high-precision photometry, and the accurate characterization of their fundamental parameters.
