Giant Planet Occurrence in the Stellar Mass-Metallicity Plane [PDF]
, 2010 Correlations between stellar properties and the occurrence rate of exoplanets can be used to inform the target selection of future planet search efforts and provide valuable clues about the planet formation process.

Two drastically different climate states on an Earth-like terra-planet [PDF]
Earth System Dynamics, 2018 We study an Earth-like terra-planet (water-limited terrestrial planet) with an overland recycling mechanism bringing fresh water back from the high latitudes to the low latitudes.

Jupiter - friend or foe? II: the Centaurs [PDF]
, 2009 It has long been assumed that the planet Jupiter acts as a giant shield, significantly lowering the impact rate of minor bodies upon the Earth, and thus enabling the development and evolution of life in a collisional environment which is not overly ...

A Survey for Massive Giant Planets in Debris Disks with Evacuated Inner Cavities [PDF]
, 2007 The commonality of collisionally replenished debris around main sequence stars suggests that minor bodies are frequent around Sun-like stars. Whether or not debris disks in general are accompanied by planets is yet unknown, but debris disks with large ...

Misaligned Rings Around Minor Planets with Moons
UniverseRecent observations have confirmed the existence of rings around minor bodies in the outer solar system. These objects may possess satellites as well. Here, we analytically investigate the interaction between such rings and satellites.
