Additive Manufacturing Provides Infinite Possibilities for Self‐Sensing Technology

Advanced Science, Volume 11, Issue 28, July 24, 2024.
Proprioception embedded in biological bodies can be migrated to smart devices, depending on the right configuration of materials and structures in the right place. Additive manufacturing technology can meet this very well, which provides unlimited possibilities for the preparation of self‐sensing intelligent devices.

Resonant and Ultra-short-period Planet Systems Are at Opposite Ends of the Exoplanet Age Distribution

The Astronomical Journal
Exoplanet 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.

Constraining stellar tidal quality factors from planet‐induced stellar spin‐up

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 345, Issue 5, June 2024.
Abstract The dynamical evolution of tight star‐planet systems is influenced by tidal interactions between the star and the planet, as was shown recently. The rate at which spins and orbits in such a system evolve depends on the stellar and planetary tidal dissipation efficiency. Here, we present a method to constrain the modified tidal quality factor Q*

Obliquity Constraints for the Extremely Eccentric Sub-Saturn Kepler-1656 b

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The orbits of close-in exoplanets provide clues to their formation and evolutionary history. Many close-in exoplanets likely formed far out in their protoplanetary disks and migrated to their current orbits, perhaps via high-eccentricity migration (HEM),

Die Suche nach kalten, fremden Welten

Physik in unserer Zeit, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 140-147, May 2024.
Die meisten der heute bekannten extrasolaren Planeten umkreisen ihren Mutterstern auf engen Umlaufbahnen in weniger als 100 Tagen. Gesteinsplaneten mit größeren Bahnradien sind von herausragender Bedeutung für Theorien der Planetenentstehung. Die Mikrogravitationslinsenmethode bietet eine hervorragende Möglichkeit, solche Planeten zu finden – und das ...

Coupled Planetary Interior and Tidal Evolution

The Astrophysical Journal
We 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 ...

Atomic‐Scale Study of Intercrystalline (Mg,Fe)O in Planetary Mantles: Mechanics and Thermodynamics of Grain Boundaries Under Pressure

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 129, Issue 5, May 2024.
Abstract Polycrystalline (Mg,Fe)O ferropericlase is the second most abundant mantle constituent of the Earth and possibly of super‐Earth exoplanets. Its mechanical behavior is expected to accommodate substantial plastic deformation in Earth's lower mantle.

Prebiotic Vitamin B3 Synthesis in Carbonaceous Planetesimals

ChemPlusChem, Volume 89, Issue 4, April 2024.
Aqueous chemistry inside meteorite parent bodies allows the formation of prebiotic molecules crucial for all life in the early solar system. We present a reaction mechanism suitable for vitamin B3 synthesis in this environment, which is experimentally verified in the literature.

Insight into the Formation of β Pic b through the Composition of Its Parent Protoplanetary Disk as Revealed by the β Pic Moving Group Member HD 181327

The Astronomical Journal
It has been suggested that β Pic b has a supersolar metallicity and subsolar C/O ratio. Assuming solar carbon and oxygen abundances for the star β Pic and therefore the planet’s parent protoplanetary disk, β Pic b’s C/O ratio suggests that it formed via ...

A Post‐Launch Summary of the Science of NASA's Psyche Mission

AGU Advances, Volume 5, Issue 2, April 2024.
Abstract Astronomical observations indicate that asteroid (16) Psyche is a large, high‐density (likely >3,400 kg·m−3), metal‐rich (30–55 vol. %) asteroid. Psyche may be remnant core material or it could be a primordial, undifferentiated metal‐rich object.
