VISIBLE AND INFRARED TELESCOPES IN DETECTION OF EARTH-LIKE EXOPLANETS
Radio Physics and Radio Astronomy, 2016 Object and purpose: The study examines the balance of resolving and light-harvesting (penetrating) abilities of filled and sparse aperture telescopes in direct detection of terrestrial exoplanets.

Interiors of Terrestrial Planets in Metric-Affine Gravity
Universe, 2021 Using a semiempirical approach, we show that modified gravity affects the internal properties of terrestrial planets, such as their physical characteristics of a core, mantle, and core–mantle boundary.

The Ability of Significant Tidal Stress to Initiate Plate Tectonics [PDF]
, 2019 Plate tectonics is a geophysical process currently unique to Earth, has an important role in regulating the Earth's climate, and may be better understood by identifying rocky planets outside our solar system with tectonic activity.

Mind and Cosmos as Throughput Systems: A Convergence Through the Throughput Model
Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper advances a conceptual and mathematical foundations approach by applying the throughput model (TPM) to cosmic phenomena, reframing the universe as an extended information processing system. TPM's four stages, Perception, Information, Judgement and Decision Choice, are reformulated in explicit information‐theoretic and dynamical ...

Classifying Exoplanets with a Gaussian Mixture Model
The Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2018 Recently, Odrzywolek and Rafelski have found three distinct categories of exoplanets, when they are classified based on density. We first carry out a similar classification of exoplanets according to their density using the Gaussian Mixture Model ...

Observations of circumstellar disks in scattered light with SPHERE at the VLT
Comptes Rendus. Physique, 2023 The technological developments initiated in the early 21$^{\rm st}$ century have led to the implementation of “planet finders” instruments on 8-m class telescopes which are in operation since 2014-2015. Such facilities are at the inception of significant

Detectability of Exoplanets in the Beta Pic Moving Group with the Gemini Planet Imager
, 2010 We model the detectability of exoplanets around stars in the Beta Pic Moving Group (BPMG) using the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI), a coronagraphic instrument designed to detect companions by imaging.
