Physical Review D, 2023 The prevailing assumption is that all exoplanets are made of ordinary matter. However, we propose an unconventional possibility that some exoplanets could be made of dark matter, which we name "dark exoplanets." In this paper, we explore methods to search for dark exoplanets, including the mass-radius relation, spectroscopy, missing transit, and ...

Molecular opacities for exoplanets [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2014 Spectroscopic observations of exoplanets are now possible by transit methods and direct emission. Spectroscopic requirements for exoplanets are reviewed based on existing measurements and model predictions for hot Jupiters and super-Earths.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013 Significance Planets around other stars, or exoplanets, are now known to be common in our galaxy. Exoplanets span a much wider range of physical conditions than the planets in our solar system, and include extremely puffy gas giants to compact rocky planets that can have densities as high as that of iron. The diversity of exoplanets allows us

Performance study of interferometric small-sats to detect exoplanets: Updated exoplanet yield and application to nearby exoplanets [PDF]
, 2020 Nulling interferometry is considered as one of the most promising solutions to spectrally characterize rocky exoplanets in the habitable zone of nearby stars. It provides both high angular resolution and starlight mitigation.

New exoplanets from the SuperWASP-North survey [PDF]
, 2011 We present the current status of the WASP search for transiting exoplanets, focusing on recent planet discoveries from SuperWASP-North and the joint equatorial region (-20.Dec.+20) observed by both WASP telescopes.

Developing a Drift Rate Distribution for Technosignature Searches of Exoplanets
, 2023 A stable-frequency transmitter with relative radial acceleration to a receiver will show a change in received frequency over time, known as a "drift rate''.

Selection of exoplanets in the habitable zone for atmospheric characterization with the James Webb Space Telescope [PDF]
, 2023 openThe James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a powerful new tool that can be used for the atmospheric characterization of exoplanets, with unprecedented sensitivity and spectral resolution.

Catalog of Nearby Exoplanets [PDF]
, 2006 We present a catalog of nearby exoplanets. It contains the 172 known low-mass companions with orbits established through radial velocity and transit measurements around stars within 200 pc.

Mineral snowflakes on exoplanets and brown dwarfs [PDF]
, 2023 The diversity of exoplanets and brown dwarfs provides ideal atmospheric laboratories to investigate novel physico-chemical regimes. Furthermore, the atmospheres of exoplanets act as the history books of planetary system.
