Prospects for the characterization of habitable planets
Comptes Rendus. Physique, 2023 With thousands of exoplanets now identified, the characterization of habitable planets and the potential identification of inhabited ones is a major challenge for the coming decades.

A decreased probability of habitable planet formation around low-mass stars [PDF]
, 2007 Smaller terrestrial planets (< 0.3 Earth masses) are less likely to retain the substantial atmospheres and ongoing tectonic activity probably required to support life.

Eccentricity formation and habitable planets in OGLE-06-109L system [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2011 Recent observation of microlensing technique reveals two giant planets at 2.3 AU and 4.6 AU around the star OGLE-06-109L. We investigate the eccentricity formation of these two planets, and find that planetary scattering or resonance crossing may be the ...

Circumbinary Habitable Zones in the Presence of a Giant Planet
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 Determining habitable zones in binary star systems can be a challenging task due to the combination of perturbed planetary orbits and varying stellar irradiation conditions.

Exoplanets around Red Giants: Distribution and Habitability
Galaxies, 2023 As the search for exoplanets continues, more are being discovered orbiting Red Giant stars. We use current data from the NASA Exoplanet Archive to investigate planet distribution around Red Giant stars and their presence in the host’s habitable zone.

An Integrated Approach of Multi-Criteria Decision Making to Determine the Most Habitable Planet
HighTech and Innovation Journal, 2022 Every planet in the universe has its own characteristics. These features make the planets different among themselves. For this reason, all the different properties of the planets must be evaluated at the same time when determining habitable planets. This

Water Planets in the Habitable Zone: Atmospheric Chemistry, Observable Features, and the case of Kepler-62e and -62f [PDF]
, 2013 Planets composed of large quantities of water that reside in the habitable zone are expected to have distinct geophysics and geochemistry of their surfaces and atmospheres.
