Multiverse Predictions for Habitability: Origin of Life Scenarios
Universe, 2023 If the origin of life is rare and sensitive to the local conditions at the site of its emergence, then, using the principle of mediocrity within a multiverse framework, we may expect to find ourselves in a universe that is better than usual at creating ...

Life, 2021 There are two types of rogue planets, sub-brown dwarfs and “rocky” rogue planets. Sub-brown dwarfs are unlikely to be habitable or even host life, but rocky rogue planets may have a liquid ocean under a thick atmosphere or an ice layer.

Stellar flares versus luminosity: XUV-induced atmospheric escape and planetary habitability [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2020 Space weather plays an important role in the evolution of planetary atmospheres. Observations have shown that stellar flares emit energy in a wide energy range (1030–1038 erg), a fraction of which lies in X-rays and extreme ultraviolet (XUV).

The habitability of stagnant-lid Earths around dwarf stars [PDF]
, 2018 The habitability of a planet depends on various factors, such as delivery of water during the formation, the co-evolution of the interior and the atmosphere, as well as the stellar irradiation which changes in time.

Microorganisms, 2018 Evidence indicates that Gale crater on Mars harboured a fluvio-lacustrine environment that was subjected to physio-chemical variations such as changes in redox conditions and evaporation with salinity changes, over time.

Modeling Virus and Bacteria Populations in Europa’s Subsurface Ocean
Life, 2022 The search for life in the universe is often informed by the study of “extreme” environments on Earth, which provide analogs for habitable locations in the Solar System, and whose microbial inhabitants may therefore also serve as analogs for potential ...

Atmospheric escape from the TRAPPIST-1 planets and implications for habitability [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017 Significance The search for exoplanets has rapidly emerged as one of the most important endeavors in astronomy. This field received a major impetus with the recent discovery of seven temperate Earth-sized exoplanets orbiting the nearby ultracool dwarf ...
