APPLE: An Evolution Code for Modeling Giant Planets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We 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,

Most High-density Exoplanets Are Unlikely to Be Remnant Giant Planet's Cores

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Some exoplanets have much higher densities than expected from stellar abundances of planet-forming elements. There are two theories—metal-rich formation hypothesis and naked core hypothesis—that explain how formation and evolution can alter the ...

Interior and Climate Modeling of the Venus Zone Planet TOI-2285 b

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
As the discovery of exoplanets progresses at a rapid pace, the large number of known planets provides a pathway to assess the stellar and planetary properties that govern the climate evolution of terrestrial planets.

Fleeting but Not Forgotten: The Imprint of Escaping Hydrogen Atmospheres on Super-Earth Interiors

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Small, close-in exoplanets are divided into two subpopulations: super-Earths and sub-Neptunes. Most super-Earths are thought to have lost their primordially accreted hydrogen-dominated atmospheres via thermally driven winds.

Planet Populations as a Function of Stellar Properties

open access: yes, 2018
Exoplanets around different types of stars provide a window into the diverse environments in which planets form. This chapter describes the observed relations between exoplanet populations and stellar properties and how they connect to planet formation ...

Not All Sub-Neptune Exoplanets Have Magma Oceans

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The evolution and structure of sub-Neptunes may be strongly influenced by interactions between the outer gaseous envelope of the planet and a surface magma ocean.

Pulsating stars harbouring planets

open access: yes, 2011
Why bother with asteroseismology while studying exoplanets? There are several answers to this question. Asteroseismology and exoplanetary sciences have much in common and the synergy between the two opens up new aspects in both fields.

Up, Up, and Away: Winds and Dynamical Structure as a Function of Altitude in the Ultrahot Jupiter WASP-76b

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Due to the unprecedented signal strengths offered by the newest high-resolution spectrographs on 10 m class telescopes, exploring the 3D nature of exoplanets is possible with an unprecedented level of precision.
