Imaging low-mass planets within the habitable zone of α Centauri
Nature Communications, 2021 Imaging of low-mass exoplanets can be achieved once the thermal background in the mid-infrared (MIR) wavelengths can be mitigated. Here, the authors present a ground-based MIR observing approach enabling imaging low-mass temperate exoplanets around ...

Relation between Brown Dwarfs and Exoplanets [PDF]
, 2016 One of the most debated subjects in Astronomy since the discovery of exoplanets is how can we distinguish the most massive of such objects from very-low mass stars like Brown Dwarfs (BDs)?

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013 For 759 exoplanets detected by radial velocities method we found that distances of exoplanets from central star comply in general Schmidt law and these distances depend on the stellar surface temperature.

A Cubesat Payload for Exoplanet Detection
Sensors, 2017 The search for undiscovered planets outside the solar system is a scientific topic that is rapidly spreading into the astrophysical and engineering communities. In this framework, the design of an innovative payload to detect exoplanets from a nano-sized

Robo-AO and SOAR High-Resolution Surveys of Exoplanet Hosting Stars
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 In the past decade, space-based transit surveys have delivered thousands of potential planet-hosting systems. Each of these needs to be vetted and characterized using follow-up high-resolution imaging.

Effect of the exoplanet magnetic field topology on its magnetospheric radio emission [PDF]
A&A, Forthcoming article, 2018, 2018 The magnetized wind from stars that impact exoplanets should lead to radio emissions. According to the scaling laws derived in the solar system, the radio emission should depend on the stellar wind, interplanetary magnetic field, and topology of the exoplanet magnetosphere. The aim of this study is to calculate the dissipated power and subsequent radio

A New Method For Studying Exoplanet Atmospheres Using Planetary Infrared Excess [PDF]
ApJL 898 L35 (2020), 2020 To date, the ability for observers to reveal the composition or thermal structure of an exoplanet's atmosphere has rested on two techniques: high-contrast direct imaging and time-series observations of transiting exoplanets. The former is currently limited to characterizing young, massive objects while the latter requires near 90 degree orbital ...

The Origin of the Exoplanets [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2010 We explore two ways in which objects of planetary masses can form. One is in disk systems like the solar system. The other is in dense clusters where stars and brown dwarfs form. We do not yet have the instrumental accuracy to detect multiplanet systems with masses like those in solar system; with our present technology from a distant site, only the ...
