Catching a planet: A tidal capture origin for the exomoon candidate Kepler 1625b I [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The (yet-to-be confirmed) discovery of a Neptune-sized moon around the ~3.2 Jupiter-mass planet in Kepler 1625 puts interesting constraints on the formation of the system.

Kepler Planet Occurrence Rates for Mid-type M Dwarfs as a Function of Spectral Type [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Journal, 2019
Previous studies of planet occurrence rates largely relied on photometric stellar characterizations. In this paper, we present planet occurrence rates for mid-type M dwarfs using spectroscopy, parallaxes, and photometry to determine stellar ...

Rise of the planet [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO reports, 2013
Despite early failures, somatic gene therapy has recently shown renewed promise. Howy suggests that the day may come when germline gene therapy needs also to be reconsidered.

Formation of terrestrial planet cores inside giant planet embryos

open access: yes, 2010
Giant planet embryos are believed to be spawned by gravitational instability in massive extended (R ~ 100 AU) protostellar discs. In a recent paper we have shown that dust can sediment inside the embryos, as argued earlier by Boss (1998) in a slightly ...

Identifying Exoplanets with Deep Learning: A Five-planet Resonant Chain around Kepler-80 and an Eighth Planet around Kepler-90 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope was designed to determine the frequency of Earth-sized planets orbiting Sun-like stars, but these planets are on the very edge of the mission’s detection sensitivity.

Kinematic detection of a planet carving a gap in a protoplanetary disk [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2019
We still do not understand how planets form or why extrasolar planetary systems are so different from our own Solar System. However, the past few years have dramatically changed our view of the disks of gas and dust around young stars.

Benchmarking performance of annual burn probability modeling against subsequent wildfire activity in California

open access: yesScientific Reports
Wildfire simulation is deployed extensively to support risk management, and in the US has driven billions in federal investment. Foundational to strategic risk analysis is spatial information on the likelihood of burning in a fire year, typically ...

Data-Driven Assessment of the Impact of Hurricanes Ian and Nicole: Natural and Armored Dunes in the Aftermath of Hurricanes on Florida’s Central East Coast

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Hurricanes Ian and Nicole caused devastating destruction across Florida in September and November 2022, leaving widespread damage in their wakes. This study focuses on the assessment of barrier islands’ shorelines, encompassing natural sand dunes and ...

Between Droughts and Floods: The Seasonal Response of Freshwater Snails in Artificial Reservoirs in the Brazilian Semiarid Region

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,
