Knudsen effusion mass spectrometry: Current and future approaches

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 38, Issue 14, 30 July 2024.
Rationale Knudsen effusion mass spectrometry (KEMS) has been a powerful tool in physical chemistry since 1954. There are many excellent reviews of the basic principles of KEMS in the literature. In this review, we focus on the current status and potential growth areas for this instrumental technique.

The origin and nature of Neptune-like planets orbiting close to solar type stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The sample of known exoplanets is strongly biased to masses larger than the ones of the giant gaseous planets of the Solar System. Recently, the discovery of two extrasolar planets of considerably lower masses around the nearby Stars GJ 436 and ρ Cancri ...

A Self‐Consistent Model of Radial Transport in the Magnetodisks of Gas Giants Including Interhemispheric Asymmetries

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 129, Issue 4, April 2024.
Abstract Outward transport of plasma in the inner and middle magnetospheres of gas giants results from an interplay between mass loading from the inner dominant mass sources (volcanic moons), flux tube interchange in the centrifugally unstable magnetospheric plasma disk, turbulent heating of the plasma, and coupling between the equatorial plasma and ...

Exomoon Phase Curves: Toroidal Exosphere Simulations of Exo‐Ios Orbiting 8 Exoplanets in Alkali Spectroscopy

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 129, Issue 3, March 2024.
Abstract Toroidal atmospheres and exospheres characterized at exoplanets may be fueled by volcanically active exomoons, often referred to as exo‐Ios. We study the neutral outgassing and volatile evolution of a close‐orbiting, evaporating satellite at eight candidate exoplanet‐exomoon systems WASP‐49,‐96,‐69,‐17 b, XO‐2N b, HAT‐P‐1 b, HD‐189733 b, and ...

On the Terminal Rotation Rates of Giant Planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Within the general framework of the core-nucleated accretion theory of giant planet formation, the conglomeration of massive gaseous envelopes is facilitated by a transient period of rapid accumulation of nebular material.

No Evidence for a Metallicity-dependent Enhancement of Distant Giant Companions to Close-in Small Planets in the California Legacy Survey

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Understanding the relationship between close-in small (CS) planets and distant giants (DGs) is central to understanding the formation of planetary systems like our own.

On the atmospheres of Saturn and cold gas giant extrasolar planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Over the past few decades, short-period giant planets have been discovered in extrasolar planetary systems, allowing for new tests of planetary evolution theories.

GEMS JWST: Transmission Spectroscopy of TOI-5205b Reveals Significant Stellar Contamination and a Metal-poor Atmosphere

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Recent discoveries of transiting giant exoplanets ( R _p  ≳ 8 R _⊕ ) around M dwarfs present an opportunity to investigate their atmospheric compositions and explore how such massive planets form around low-mass stars contrary to the prediction from ...

Searching for gaseous giant planets around debris disks

open access: yes, 2022
The past decades have clearly demonstrated that planet formation is an efficient process and that it can lead to a vast variety of planetary systems.

Orbits and Interiors of Planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The focus of this thesis is a collection of problems of timely interest in orbital dynamics and interior structure of planetary bodies. The first three chapters are dedicated to understanding the interior structure of close-in, gaseous extrasolar ...
