Stability and Detectability of Exomoons Orbiting HIP 41378 f, a Temperate Jovian Planet with an Anomalously Low Apparent Density

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
Moons orbiting exoplanets (“exomoons”) may hold clues about planet formation, migration, and habitability. In this work, we investigate the plausibility of exomoons orbiting the temperate ( T _eq = 294 K) giant ( R = 9.2 R _⊕ ) planet HIP 41378 f, which ...

Multifluid Equations for MHD

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract A set of magnetohydrodynamic equations is developed for multiple ion species in the limit of small Larmor radius. The derivation proceeds to explicitly calculate the Lorentz force resulting from the small ion drift velocities. The net effect is that in this limit all the ions move perpendicular to the magnetic field with the same E×B $\mathbf ...

Lactea: Web‐Based Spectrum‐Preserving Multi‐Resolution Visualization of the GAIA Star Catalog

Computer Graphics Forum, Volume 44, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract The explosion of data in astronomy has resulted in an era of unprecedented opportunities for discovery. The GAIA mission's catalog, containing a large number of light sources (mostly stars) with several parameters such as sky position and proper motion, is playing a significant role in advancing astronomy research and has been crucial in ...

Long‐Lasting Volcanism of the Moon Aided by the Switch in Dominant Mechanisms of Magma Ascent: Role of Localized Radioactive Enrichment in a Numerical Model of Magmatism and Mantle Convection

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.
Abstract Significant volcanic activity continued for billions of years since 3.5–4 Gyr ago in the Procellarum KREEP Terrane (PKT) of the Moon, but not so significant outside the PKT. To understand this volcanic history, we developed a 2‐D numerical model of magmatism and mantle convection; the effects of the PKT on lunar evolution are considered by ...

The role of boundary‐layer friction in modulating midlatitude heatwaves

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 151, Issue 768, April 2025 Part A.
Boundary‐layer friction associated with different surface types plays an important role in modulating heatwaves in the midlatitudes. The main changes in heatwave features occur when locally modifying boundary‐layer friction along the jet‐stream axis. Real‐world differences in the occurrence of heatwaves between different locations in the midlatitudes ...

Dependence of Planet Populations on Stellar Mass and Metallicity: A Pebble-accretion-based Planet Population Synthesis Model

The Astrophysical Journal
The formation and evolution of planetary systems are linked to their host stellar environment. In this study, we employ a pebble-accretion-based planet population synthesis model to explore the correlation between planetary properties and stellar mass ...

Tracing the Contribution of Abiotic Methane in Deep Natural Gases From the Songliao Basin, China Using Bulk Isotopes and Methane Clumped Isotopologue 12CH2D2

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The identification and evaluation of abiotic methane remain an active research area due to uncertainties in traditional indicators that may lead to “false‐positive” detections. As an emerging isotopic tool, methane clumped isotope can provide novel information about the generation and post‐generation processes of methane gases.

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME). XI. An Earth-sized Planet Orbiting a Nearby, Solar-like Host in the 400 Myr Ursa Major Moving Group

The Astronomical Journal
Young terrestrial worlds are critical test beds to constrain prevailing theories of planetary formation and evolution. We present the discovery of HD 63433 d—a nearby (22 pc), Earth-sized planet transiting a young Sun-like star (TOI-1726, HD 63433).

Pulsating stars harbouring planets

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
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.

Peas-in-a-pod across the Radius Valley: Rocky Systems Are Less Uniform in Mass but More Uniform in Size and Spacing

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The ubiquity of “peas-in-a-pod” architectural patterns and the existence of the radius valley each presents a striking population-level trend for planets with R _p ≤ 4 R _⊕ that serves to place powerful constraints on the formation and evolution of these
