Initial Thermal States of Super‐Earth Exoplanets and Implications for Early Dynamos

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 2, February 2025.
Abstract The accretion of Earth and the formation of a metallic core released a large amount of primordial heat and may have enabled its evolution into a habitable world. Metal‐silicate segregation likely occurs in super‐Earth exoplanets as well, but its influence on their initial thermal states has not been fully examined.

Modeling of Solar-Stellar Connections and the Heliophysics of Exoplanet Systems

open access: yes, 2021
In the past two and a half decades, advances in the field of exoplanet detection have confirmed more than 4,000 known planets outside of our Solar System \cite{exoplanets}.

Geodynamics of Super‐Earth GJ 486b

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 129, Issue 10, October 2024.
Abstract Many super‐Earths are on very short orbits around their host star and, therefore, more likely to be tidally locked. Because this locking can lead to a strong contrast between the dayside and nightside surface temperatures, these super‐Earths could exhibit mantle convection patterns and tectonics that could differ significantly from those ...

Migration and Evolution of giant ExoPlanets (MEEP). II. Super-Jupiters and Lithium-rich host stars

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
ABSTRACT Although hot Jupiters were the first exoplanets discovered orbiting main-sequence stars, the dominant mechanisms through which they form and evolve are not known. To address the questions surrounding their origins, the Migration and Evolution of giant ExoPlanets (MEEP) survey aims to create a complete, magnitude-limited ($G& ...

Additive Manufacturing Provides Infinite Possibilities for Self‐Sensing Technology

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

Records of migration in the exoplanet configurations

open access: yes, 2013
When compared to our Solar System, many exoplanet systems exhibit quite unusual planet configurations; some of these are hot Jupiters, which orbit their central stars with periods of a few days, others are resonant systems composed of two or more planets

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

open access: yesAstronomische 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*

Die Suche nach kalten, fremden Welten

open access: yesPhysik 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 ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Hot exoplanet atmospheres resolved with transit spectroscopy (HEARTS) : II. A broadened sodium feature on the ultra-hot giant WASP-76b [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
High-resolution optical spectroscopy is a powerful tool to characterise exoplanetary atmospheres from the ground. The sodium D lines, with their large cross sections, are especially suited to studying the upper layers of atmospheres in this context.
