The Science of Exoplanets and Their Systems [PDF]
A scientific forum on "The Future Science of Exoplanets and Their Systems," sponsored by Europlanet and the International Space Science Institute (ISSI) and co-organized by the Center for Space and Habitability (CSH) of the University of Bern, was held during December 5 and 6, 2012, in Bern, Switzerland.

Acceleration in Exoplanet Magnetospheres
We briefly review the various acceleration mechanisms working in exoplanetary magnetospheres. The proposed scenarios are based on the investigation of planetary magnetospheres of the Solar System. Primary attention is paid to Earth and Jupiter, as the most characteristic examples of the various types of magnetospheric features determining different ...

ABSTRACT Rationale Nitrogen isotope values have been widely used for tracing ancient biogeochemical processes, but contaminant‐sensitive materials, such as Precambrian sedimentary rocks, meteorites, or returned extraterrestrial samples, often have low nitrogen levels and are thus vulnerable to modern organic contamination.

Reflected Spectroscopy of Small Exoplanets II: Characterization of Terrestrial Exoplanets
Abstract A space telescope capable of high-contrast imaging has been recognized as the avenue toward finding terrestrial planets around nearby Sun-like stars and characterizing their potential habitability. It is thus essential to quantify the capability of reflected light spectroscopy obtained through direct imaging for terrestrial ...

Mesoscale Modeling of Titan’s Shangri‐La Region: The Impact of Surface Properties on Winds
Abstract The knowledge of Titan’s near‐surface atmosphere is sparse. The Huygens descent probe measured winds, and the multiple dune field observations and possible dust storms suggest active near‐surface dynamics. The Dragonfly rotorcraft lander will fly close to the surface in the Shangri‐La region, near the Huygens landing site, where complex dune ...

Propagation Dynamics of Fast Electron Beam and Its Electron Cyclotron Maser Emission
Abstract Fast electron beams (FEBs) and coherent radio bursts both are very common plasma activity phenomena in the cosmos. The electron cyclotron maser (ECM) instability driven by FEBs trapped in magnetic fields can directly amplify radio wave radiations.

Exoplanets in science fiction [PDF]
Science fiction (SF) is a genre influenced by science which, in turn, influences science. Astronomers discovered the first exoplanets (planets outside our solar system) in the 1990s, but exoplanets featured in SF long before then.

This review article delves into the study of low-mass exoplanets: super-Earths, mini-Neptunes and the new categories within and between that we are starting to discover. We provide an overview of current exoplanet observational capabilities, their limitations, and what they are allowing us to learn about low-mass planets.
