Study of Strange Exoplanets

open access: yes, 2021
Ever since the discovery of the first exoplanet in 1995, more than 4000 exoplanets have been discovered so far. The majority of the exoplanets were discovered by transit and radial velocity methods. And the numbers are only likely to increase prominently,

VISIBLE AND INFRARED TELESCOPES IN DETECTION OF EARTH-LIKE EXOPLANETS

open access: yesRadio 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.

MHD Study of Extreme Space Weather Conditions for Exoplanets With Earth‐Like Magnetospheres: On Habitability Conditions and Radio‐Emission

open access: yesSpace Weather, 2022
The present study aims at characterizing the habitability conditions of exoplanets with an Earth‐like magnetosphere inside the habitable zone of M and F stars, caused by the direct deposition of the stellar wind on the exoplanet surface.

Design Considerations for Visualization Transitions of 3D Spatial Data in Hybrid AR‐Desktop Environments

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present design considerations for animated transitions of the appearance of 3D spatial datasets in a hybrid Augmented Reality‐desktop context. Such hybrid interfaces combine both traditional and immersive displays to facilitate the exploration of 2D and 3D data representations in the environment in which they are best displayed.

Characterising Exoplanets Using Ground-based & Space-based Facilities [PDF]

open access: yes
Exoplanets are diverse and complex, with the components such as planetary formation, orbital dynamics, and atmospheric compositions being detectable though primary transiting events.

Chemical Abundances of the Bioessential Elements C, O, and S, and the Refractory Elements Fe and Ni, in Solar-type Exoplanet-hosting Stars from HARPS North and South

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We determined atmospheric and evolutionary parameters, along with chemical abundances of C, O, S, Fe, and Ni for 290 solar-type exoplanet-hosting stars using high-resolution HARPS-North and HARPS-South spectra, and radii for 373 exoplanets using ...

Planets and the Possibility of Life beyond Earth 

open access: yesZygon
The question of whether life exists beyond Earth has intrigued humans throughout history. Millennia of speculation have fueled both philosophy and theology, with contemplations of the spiritual state of alien beings shedding new light on that state of ...

Classifying Exoplanets with a Gaussian Mixture Model

open access: yesThe 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 ...

The WASP-South search for transiting exoplanets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Since 2006 WASP-South has been scanning the Southern sky for transiting exoplanets. Combined with Geneva Observatory radial velocities we have so far found over 30 transiting exoplanets around relatively bright stars of magnitude 9-13.
