Characterizing the interiors of rocky exoplanets is important to understand planetary populations and further investigate planetary habitability. New observable constraints and inference techniques have been explored for this purpose.

Abstract We analyzed the methanol extracts of six pristine specimens of the Tagish Lake meteorite (TL1, TL4, TL5A, TL6, TL7, and TL10a) and heated and unheated samples of Allende using high‐performance liquid chromatography coupled with high‐resolution, accurate mass–mass spectrometry (HPLC‐HRAM‐MS).

Nontransiting terrestrial planets will be accessible by upcoming observatories of which LIFE is an example. Planet b orbiting Teegarden’s Star is one of the optimal targets for such missions.

A theoretical and observational study of the formation and evolution of planetary systems and extrasolar planets [PDF]
The recent discoveries of extrasolar giant planets (planets like Jupiter orbiting other stars like our Sun) at small distances from their central stars have revitalized the fields of planet and planetary system formation.

Near the Runaway: The Climate and Habitability of Teegarden’s Star b
Teegarden’s Star b, a nearby terrestrial world receiving an Earth-like instellation, is a prime candidate for next-generation observatories targeting temperate exoplanets in their habitable zones.

Knudsen effusion mass spectrometry: Current and future approaches
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.

A water budget dichotomy of rocky protoplanets from ²⁶Al-heating [PDF]
In contrast to the water-poor inner solar system planets, stochasticity during planetary formation (Alibert & Benz 2017; Raymond& Izidoro 2017) and order of magnitude deviations in exoplanet volatile contents (Kaltenegger 2017) suggest ...

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

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

Tidal Evolution of Extrasolar Moons and Its Applications [PDF]
In this thesis, we consider tidal evolution of extrasolar moons of star-planet-moon systems. First, we formulated tidal decay lifetimes for hypothetical moons with both lunar and stellar tides.
