A More Comprehensive Habitable Zone for Finding Life on Other Planets
Geosciences, 2018 The habitable zone (HZ) is the circular region around a star(s) where standing bodies of water could exist on the surface of a rocky planet. Space missions employ the HZ to select promising targets for follow-up habitability assessment.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 A planet’s history dictates its current potential to host habitable conditions and life. The concept of the continuously habitable zone (CHZ) has been used to define the region around a star most likely to host planets with long-term habitability ...

Trojans in Habitable Zones [PDF]
Astrobiology, 2005 With the aid of numerical experiments we examined the dynamical stability of fictitious terrestrial planets in 1:1 mean motion resonance with Jovian-like planets of extrasolar planetary systems. In our stability study of the so-called "Trojan" planets in the habitable zone, we used the restricted three-body problem with different mass ratios of the ...

Extended Habitability of Exoplanets Due to Subglacial Water
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Considering subglacial liquid water, a significant extension of the classical Habitable Zone is obtained. Elaborating on the model of Wandel it is shown how an atmosphere and liquid water could survive on tidally locked planets closely orbiting an M ...

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 ABSTRACTWhen searching for inhabited exoplanets, understanding the boundaries of the habitable zone around the parent star is the key. If life can strongly influence its global environment, then we would expect the boundaries of the habitable zone to be influenced by the presence of life.

No Evidence for More Earth-sized Planets in the Habitable Zone of Kepler's M versus FGK Stars
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Reliable detections of Earth-sized planets in the habitable zone remain elusive in the Kepler sample, even for M dwarfs. The Kepler sample was once thought to contain a considerable number of M-dwarf stars ( T _eff < 4000 K), which hosted enough Earth ...

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 Catalog of Habitable Zone Exoplanets
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 The search for habitable planets has revealed many planets that can vary greatly from an Earth analog environment. These include highly eccentric orbits, giant planets, different bulk densities, relatively active stars, and evolved stars.
