Bayesian analysis of interiors of HD 219134b, Kepler-10b, Kepler-93b, CoRoT-7b, 55 Cnc e, and HD 97658b using stellar abundance proxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Using a generalized Bayesian inference method, we aim to explore the possible interior structures of six selected exoplanets for which planetary mass and radius measurements are available in addition to stellar host abundances: HD~219134b, Kepler-10b ...

Evolution of a Water-rich Atmosphere Formed by a Giant Impact on an Earth-sized Planet

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The atmosphere of a terrestrial planet that is replenished with secondary gases should have accumulated hydrogen-rich gas from its protoplanetary disk.

Probing the Interiors of Very Hot Jupiters Using Transit Light Curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Accurately understanding the interior structure of extra-solar planets is critical for inferring their formation and evolution. The internal density distribution of a planet has a direct effect on the star-planet orbit through the gravitational ...

Constraining the Venus Interior Structure with Future VERITAS Measurements of the Gravitational Atmospheric Loading

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
The complex dynamics of the Venus atmosphere produces a periodic mass redistribution pattern that creates a time-variable modulation of the gravity field of Venus.

An Object‐Oriented Bayesian Gravity Inversion Scheme for Inferring Density Anomalies in Planetary Interiors

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2023
Gravity inversions have contributed greatly to our knowledge of the interior of planetary bodies and the processes that shaped them. However, previous global gravity inversion methods neglect the inference of mantle density anomalies when using ...

On the Terminal Rotation Rates of Giant Planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Within the general framework of core-nucleated accretion theory of giant planet formation, the conglomeration of massive gaseous envelopes is facilitated by a transient period of rapid accumulation of nebular material.

Highlight Advances in Planetary Physics in the Solar System: In Situ Detection Over the Past 20 Years

open access: yesSpace: Science & Technology, 2023
Planetary science is the science of studying planets, moons, and planetary systems. The scale of the research objects ranges from small meteoroids to large gas giant planets, and the research purpose is to determine their composition, dynamics, formation,

The habitability of stagnant-lid Earths around dwarf stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The habitability of a planet depends on various factors, such as delivery of water during the formation, the co-evolution of the interior and the atmosphere, as well as the stellar irradiation which changes in time.
