Disrupted Exoplanet Systems in the SuperWASP Archive [PDF]

, 2020
The aim of this research project has been to search for disrupted or disintegrating exoplanets; this search has been carried out using archival data from the Super-WASP (Wide Angle Search for Planets) transit photometry detection programme. The main aim of the archival search was to look for objects similar to Kepler-1520b (Rappaport et al., 2012) and ...

Exoplanet Vision 2050 [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Is there any hope for us to draw a plausible picture of the future of exoplanet research? Here we extrapolate from the first 25 years of exoplanet discovery into the year 2050. If the power law for the cumulative exoplanet count continues, then almost 100,000,000 exoplanets would be known by 2050. Although this number sounds ridiculously large, we find

The Planet as Exoplanet Analog Spectrograph (PEAS): Design and First-Light [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Exoplanets are abundant in our galaxy and yet characterizing them remains a technical challenge. Solar System planets provide an opportunity to test the practical limitations of exoplanet observations with high signal-to-noise data that we cannot access for exoplanets.

Is OSSO a Significant Contributor to the Unknown UV Absorber in Venus' Atmosphere?

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 4, 28 February 2025.
Abstract It has been proposed that two isomers of the SO dimer (cis‐ and trans‐OSSO) are candidates for the unknown UV absorber in Venus' atmosphere because they have a good spectral match with the absorber, despite the low concentrations predicted by 1D photochemical models.

Superhabitable Planets Around Mid‐Type K Dwarf Stars Enhance Simulated JWST Observability and Surface Habitability

Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 2, February 2025.
ABSTRACT In our search for life beyond the Solar System, certain planetary bodies may be more conducive to life than Earth. However, the observability of these “superhabitable” (SH) planets in the habitable zones around K dwarf stars has not been fully modeled. This study addresses this gap by modeling the atmospheres of SH exoplanets.

Architecture Classification for Extrasolar Planetary Systems

The Astronomical Journal
This paper presents a classification framework for the architectures of planetary systems based on a complete survey of the confirmed exoplanet population. With nearly 6000 confirmed exoplanets discovered, including more than 300 multiplanet systems with

Three Warm Jupiters around Solar-analog Stars Detected with TESS

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
We report the discovery and characterization of three giant exoplanets orbiting solar-analog stars, detected by the TESS space mission and confirmed through ground-based photometry and radial velocity measurements taken at La Silla observatory with FEROS.

Novel Graphitic Oxynitrides as Photocatalysts for Sustainable H2 Production and CO2 Valorization. The Importance of Self‐Assembly for Catalytic Activity

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 3, February 1, 2025.
A novel subclass of graphitic oxynitrides, easily generated from otherwise abundant prebiotic monomers, namely cyanamide and glyoxal, debut in the scenario of sustainable heterogeneous catalysts, as demonstrated through applications to the highly demanding H2 and CO2 agendas.

System study of EPICS: the exoplanets imager for the E-ELT

SPIE Proceedings, 2010
ESO and a large European consortium completed the phase-A study of EPICS, an instrument dedicated to exoplanets direct imaging for the EELT. The very ambitious science goals of EPICS, the imaging of reflected light of mature gas giant exoplanets around bright stars, sets extremely strong requirements in terms of instrumental contrast achievable.

Toward High-precision Mass Measurements of Two Sub-Neptunes in the K2-266 Planetary System Through Transit Timing

The Astronomical Journal
Sub-Neptunes have been found to be one of the most common types of exoplanets, yet their physical parameters and properties are poorly determined and in need of further investigation.
