White dwarf planets

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
The recognition that planets may survive the late stages of stellar evolution, and the prospects for finding them around White Dwarfs, are growing. We discuss two aspects governing planetary survival through stellar evolution to the White Dwarf stage ...

Roadmap to Nanomedical Applications: Nanotoxicology and In Vitro Guidelines for Lanthanide‐Doped Luminescence Nanothermometers

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Lanthanide‐based luminescence nanothermometry holds multifaceted potential for nanomedical applications, yet despite significant research advances, clinical translation of the engineered nanomaterials is still controversial and widely disputed. This is related to crucial nanotoxicological aspects that must be addressed at the preclinical level ...

Age Analysis of Extrasolar Planets: Insight from Stellar Isochrone Models

The Astronomical Journal
There is growing evidence from stellar kinematics and galactic chemical evolution suggesting that giant planets ( M _P ≥ 0.3 M _J ) are relatively young compared to the most commonly occurring population of small planets ( M _P < 0.3 M _J ).

Progressing delineations of key biodiversity areas for seabirds, and their application to management of coastal seas

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 1, Page 123-142, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Decision‐making products that support effective marine spatial planning are essential for guiding efforts that enable conservation of biodiversity facing increasing pressures. Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are a product recently agreed upon by an international network of organizations for identifying globally important areas. Utilizing the

Mapping the impacts of multiple stressors on the decline in kelps along the coast of Victoria, Australia

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 1, Page 199-220, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Kelp forests throughout temperate regions of the world serve as foundation species that play a critical role in sustaining the health and function of marine ecosystems but are experiencing declines in abundance due to a loss in resilience as the ocean climate changes.

Giant Planet Engulfment by Evolved Giant Stars: Light Curves, Asteroseismology, and Survivability

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
About ten percent of Sun-like (1–2 M _⊙ ) stars will engulf a 1–10 M _J planet as they expand during the red giant branch (RGB) or asymptotic giant branch (AGB) phase of their evolution.

Oligarchic growth of giant planets [PDF]

Icarus, 2003
Runaway growth ends when the largest protoplanets dominate the dynamics of the planetesimal disk; the subsequent self-limiting accretion mode is referred to as ``oligarchic growth.'' Here, we begin by expanding on the existing analytic model of the oligarchic growth regime. From this, we derive global estimates of the planet formation rate throughout a

Data‐Driven Review on Aerogels and Polymeric Aerogels

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Accepted Article.
Thoroughly data‐driven review on chemistry–properties–applications of aerogels is provided. Aerogel is a category of solid materials having homogeneous, highly porous nanostructures. Unique physicochemical properties of aerogels have attracted much attention in wide fields due to their potentials for energy/environmental issues in the 21st century ...
