Exoplanet Clouds [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2019
Clouds, which are common features in Earth's atmosphere, form in atmospheres of planets that orbit other stars than our Sun, in so-called extrasolar planets or exoplanets. Exoplanet atmospheres can be chemically extremely rich. Exoplanet clouds are therefore composed of a mix of materials that changes throughout the atmosphere.

CD-HPF: New Habitability Score Via Data Analytic Modeling

open access: yes, 2016
The search for life on the planets outside the Solar System can be broadly classified into the following: looking for Earth-like conditions or the planets similar to the Earth (Earth similarity), and looking for the possibility of life in a form known or

Atmospheric Circulation of Tide-Locked Exoplanets

open access: yesAnnual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2019
Tide-locked planets are planets in which tidal stresses from the host star have spun down the planet's rotation to the point where its length of sidereal day equals its length of year. In a nearly circular orbit, such planets have a permanent dayside and

Diversity of exoplanets

open access: yes
This review article delves into the study of low-mass exoplanets: super-Earths, mini-Neptunes and the new categories within and between that we are starting to discover. We provide an overview of current exoplanet observational capabilities, their limitations, and what they are allowing us to learn about low-mass planets.

SEARCHING FOR ANOTHER EARTH: THE RECENT HISTORY OF THE DISCOVERY OF EXOPLANETS

open access: yesZygon, 2016
The discovery of exoplanets is a small part of the array of scientific arguments for and against the existence of extraterrestrial intelligence. Yet the recent stunning achievement of this program of observational astronomy has had a significant effect ...
