Searching for Earth analogues around the nearest stars: the disk age-metallicity relation and the age distribution in the Solar Neighbourhood

open access: yes, 2007
The chemical composition of Earth's atmosphere has undergone substantial evolution over the course of its history. It is possible, even likely, that terrestrial planets in other planetary systems have undergone similar changes; consequently, the age ...

Design Considerations for Visualization Transitions of 3D Spatial Data in Hybrid AR‐Desktop Environments

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present design considerations for animated transitions of the appearance of 3D spatial datasets in a hybrid Augmented Reality‐desktop context. Such hybrid interfaces combine both traditional and immersive displays to facilitate the exploration of 2D and 3D data representations in the environment in which they are best displayed.

Polarimetry of exoplanet-exomoon systems

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Aims. We investigated the potential of polarimetric observations in the optical wavelength range for the detection of exomoons and the characterization of exoplanet-exomoon systems. Methods. Using the three-dimensional Monte Carlo radiative transfer code POLARIS, we calculated flux and polarization phase curves of Earth-like exoplanets with a satellite

The Orbital Geometries and Stellar Obliquities of Exoplanet-hosting Multistar Systems

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The current orbital geometries of exoplanet systems offer a fossilized record of the systems’ dynamical histories. A particularly rich set of dynamical mechanisms is available to exoplanets residing in multistar systems, which may have their evolution ...

Gaia astrometry and exoplanetary science: DR2, (E)DR3, and beyond

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Physique, 2023
I review the recent impact of Gaia astrometry in the exoplanet field, both in terms of characterization of the orbits and masses of planetary systems and the properties of their host stars.

Mapping out the time-evolution of exoplanet processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
There are many competing theories and models describing the formation, migration and evolution of exoplanet systems. As both the precision with which we can characterize exoplanets and their host stars, and the number of systems for which we can make ...

The Rossiter-McLaughlin effect in Exoplanet Research

open access: yes, 2017
The Rossiter-McLaughlin effect occurs during a planet's transit. It provides the main means of measuring the sky-projected spin-orbit angle between a planet's orbital plane, and its host star's equatorial plane.

Exoplanet Research with the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA)

open access: yes, 2017
When the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) was conceived and its first science cases defined, exoplanets had not been detected. Later studies, however, showed that optical and near-infrared photometric and spectrophotometric follow-

Speckle noise reduction techniques for high-dynamic range imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
High-dynamic range imaging from space in the visible, aiming in particular at the detection of terrestrial exoplanets, necessitates not only the use of a coronagraph, but also of adaptive optics to correct optical defects in real time.

Lithium Niobate Quadratic Integrated Nonlinear Photonics: Enabling Ultra‐Wide Bandwidth and Ultrafast Photonic Engines

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 9, 13 May 2026.
This perspective surveys emerging quantum and classical photonic applications across operating wavelengths and timescales, highlighting persistent technological gaps in integrated light sources. We examine the unique advantages of quadratic nonlinear photonics on the thin‐film lithium niobate (TFLN) platform and discuss strategies for realizing ...
