Atmospheric characterization of terrestrial exoplanets in the mid-infrared: biosignatures, habitability, and diversity [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental astronomy (Print), 2019
Exoplanet science is one of the most thriving fields of modern astrophysics. A major goal is the atmospheric characterization of dozens of small, terrestrial exoplanets in order to search for signatures in their atmospheres that indicate biological ...

Exoplanets and SETI

open access: yes, 2017
The discovery of exoplanets has both focused and expanded the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. The consideration of Earth as an exoplanet, the knowledge of the orbital parameters of individual exoplanets, and our new understanding of the ...

State‐Dependence of Polar Amplification in an Idealized GCM

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Polar amplification (PA) is a robust feature of contemporary climate change, but its state‐dependence across different climate conditions is poorly understood despite potential relevance to paleoclimate records and future projections. Here we examine the state‐dependence of PA across a wide range of climate states in an idealized moist general

Identifying Exoplanets with Deep Learning. II. Two New Super-Earths Uncovered by a Neural Network in K2 Data [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Journal, 2019
For years, scientists have used data from NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope to look for and discover thousands of transiting exoplanets. In its extended K2 mission, Kepler observed stars in various regions of the sky all across the ecliptic plane, and ...
