The stability of short-period extrasolar giant planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A three-dimensional coupled thermosphere-ionosphere model for extrasolar giant planets (EXOTIM) has been developed. This is the first such model reported in the literature.

Early Results from the HUMDRUM Survey: A Small, Earth-mass Planet Orbits TOI-1450A

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
M-dwarf stars provide us with an ideal opportunity to study nearby small planets. The HUnting for M Dwarf Rocky planets Using MAROON-X (HUMDRUM) survey uses the MAROON-X spectrograph, which is ideally suited to studying these stars, to measure precise ...

Company for the Ultra-high Density, Ultra-short Period Sub-Earth GJ 367 b: Discovery of Two Additional Low-mass Planets at 11.5 and 34 Days

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
GJ 367 is a bright ( V ≈ 10.2) M1 V star that has been recently found to host a transiting ultra-short period sub-Earth on a 7.7 hr orbit. With the aim of improving the planetary mass and radius and unveiling the inner architecture of the system, we ...

Earth's Alfvén Wings Driven by the April 2023 Coronal Mass Ejection

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 14, 28 July 2024.
Abstract We report a rare regime of Earth's magnetosphere interaction with sub‐Alfvénic solar wind in which the windsock‐like magnetosphere transforms into one with Alfvén wings. In the magnetic cloud of a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) on 24 April 2023, NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale mission distinguishes the following features: (a) unshocked and ...

Mitigating Worst-case Exozodiacal Dust Structure in High-contrast Images of Earth-like Exoplanets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Detecting Earth-like exoplanets in direct images of nearby Sun-like systems brings a unique set of challenges that must be addressed in the early phases of designing a space-based direct imaging mission.

Electrical Conductivity of Dense MgSiO3 Melt Under Static Compression

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 12, 28 June 2024.
Abstract The magnetic fields of terrestrial planets are created by core convection. Molten silicate mantles could also generate magnetic fields through their convective motion, known as a silicate dynamo. Recent computational studies have suggested that silicate melts may exhibit high electrical conductivity (EC) at temperatures above 4000 K due to ...

Thermal Equation of State of Cubic Silicon Carbide at High Pressures

open access: yesChemPhysChem, Volume 25, Issue 9, May 2, 2024.
The thermoelastic properties of SiC with a zinc‐blende crystal structure are experimentally determined. Previous experimental studies contained errors due to significant uncertainties of measured pressures and temperatures and unreleased residual stresses.

Two Extrasolar Planets from the Anglo‐Australian Planet Search

open access: yes, 2002
We report the detection of two new extrasolar planets from the Anglo-Australian Planet Search around the stars HD 142 and HD 23079. The planet orbiting HD 142 has an orbital period of just under 1 yr, while that orbiting HD 23079 has a period of just ...

LHS 475 b: A Potential Venus Analog Orbiting a Nearby M Dwarf

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Based on photometric observations by TESS, we present the discovery of a potential Venus analog transiting LHS 475, an M3 dwarf located 12.5 pc from the Sun. The mass of the star is 0.274 ± 0.015 M _☉ .

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 ...
