Possibilities for an Aerial Biosphere in Temperate Sub Neptune-Sized Exoplanet Atmospheres
Universe, 2021 The search for signs of life through the detection of exoplanet atmosphere biosignature gases is gaining momentum. Yet, only a handful of rocky exoplanet atmospheres are suitable for observation with planned next-generation telescopes.

Universe, 2023 Tidal interaction between a star and a close-in massive exoplanet causes the planetary orbit to shrink and eventually leads to tidal disruption. Understanding orbital decay in exoplanetary systems is crucial for advancing our knowledge of planetary ...

Atmospheric circulation of exoplanets
地球与行星物理论评, 2023 To date, more than 5000 exoplanets and more than 2000 brown dwarfs have been confirmed, which shows rich diversities in many aspects. With the rapid growth of the planet family, both observational and theoretical research on exoplanet atmosphere is ...

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.

Habitable Zone Lifetime of Exoplanets around Main Sequence Stars [PDF]
, 2013 Funding: Dean's Scholarship at the University of East Anglia.The potential habitability of newly discovered exoplanets is initially assessed by determining whether their orbits fall within the circumstellar habitable zone of their star.

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.
