Planets in habitable zones: [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2003
The recently discovered planetary system in the binary GamCep was studied concerning its dynamical evolution. We confirm that the orbital parameters found by the observers are in a stable configuration. The primary aim of this study was to find stable planetary orbits in a habitable region in this system, which consists of a double star (a=21.36 AU ...

Habitable Planets with High Obliquities

Icarus, 1997
Earth's obliquity would vary chaotically from 0 degrees to 85 degrees were it not for the presence of the Moon (J. Laskar, F. Joutel, and P. Robutel, 1993, Nature 361, 615-617). The Moon itself is thought to be an accident of accretion, formed by a glancing blow from a Mars-sized planetesimal.

Habitable Planet, Characterization

2011
The spectrum of a planet can contain signatures of atmospheric species, which create its spectral fingerprint. The presence and abundance of atmospheric species, in the context of the properties of the star and the planet, can elucidate the underlying physics and characterize a planetary environment.
