Predictions of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Galactic Exoplanet Survey. III. Detectability of Giant Exomoons of Wide-separation Giant Planets

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman) will conduct a Galactic Exoplanet Survey to discover bound and free-floating exoplanets using gravitational microlensing. Roman should be sensitive to lenses with mass down to ∼0.02 M _⊕ , or roughly the mass

Planetary Construction Zones in Occultation: Discovery of an Extrasolar Ring System Transiting a Young Sun-like Star and Future Prospects for Detecting Eclipses by Circumsecondary and Circumplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The large relative sizes of circumstellar and circumplanetary disks imply that they might be seen in eclipse in stellar light curves. We estimate that a survey of ~10^4 young (~10 Myr old) post-accretion pre-MS stars monitored for ~10 years should yield

Knudsen effusion mass spectrometry: Current and future approaches

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 38, Issue 14, 30 July 2024.
Rationale Knudsen effusion mass spectrometry (KEMS) has been a powerful tool in physical chemistry since 1954. There are many excellent reviews of the basic principles of KEMS in the literature. In this review, we focus on the current status and potential growth areas for this instrumental technique.

In Situ Formation and Dynamical Evolution of Hot Jupiter Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hot Jupiters, giant extrasolar planets with orbital periods shorter than ~10 days, have long been thought to form at large radial distances, only to subsequently experience long-range inward migration. Here, we propose that in contrast with this picture,

Earth's Alfvén Wings Driven by the April 2023 Coronal Mass Ejection

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 51, Issue 14, 28 July 2024.
Abstract We report a rare regime of Earth's magnetosphere interaction with sub‐Alfvénic solar wind in which the windsock‐like magnetosphere transforms into one with Alfvén wings. In the magnetic cloud of a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) on 24 April 2023, NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale mission distinguishes the following features: (a) unshocked and ...

Extrasolar Planet Orbits and Eccentricities

open access: yes, 2003
The known extrasolar planets exhibit many interesting and surprising features--extremely short-period orbits, high-eccentricity orbits, mean-motion and secular resonances, etc.--and have dramatically expanded our appreciation of the diversity of possible

On disc driven inward migration of resonantly coupled planets with application to the system around GJ876 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We consider two protoplanets gravitationally interacting with each other and a protoplanetary disc. The two planets orbit interior to a tidally maintained disc cavity while the disc interaction indices inward migration. When the migration is slow enough,

Advances in high‐temperature operatable triboelectric nanogenerator

open access: yesSusMat, Volume 4, Issue 3, June 2024.
Triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), as a continuous, durable, and self‐sufficient power source, offers an innovative approach to effectively utilize diverse mechanical energy. This review comprehensively presents the current state and research advancements in high‐temperature operatable TENG (HTO‐TENG), providing valuable insights into future research ...

RV Measurements of Directly Imaged Brown Dwarf GQ Lup B to Search for Exosatellites

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
GQ Lup B is one of the few substellar companions with a detected cicumplanetary disk (CPD). Observations of the CPD suggest the presence of a cavity, possibly formed by an exosatellite.

Thermal Equation of State of Cubic Silicon Carbide at High Pressures

open access: yesChemPhysChem, Volume 25, Issue 9, May 2, 2024.
The thermoelastic properties of SiC with a zinc‐blende crystal structure are experimentally determined. Previous experimental studies contained errors due to significant uncertainties of measured pressures and temperatures and unreleased residual stresses.
