Constraining the volatile fraction of planets from transit observations [PDF]

, 2016
The determination of the abundance of volatiles in extrasolar planets is very important as it can provide constraints on transport in protoplanetary disks and on the formation location of planets.

Solar-like oscillations in a massive star [PDF]

, 2009
Seismology of stars provides insight into the physical mechanisms taking place in their interior, with modes of oscillation probing different layers. Low-amplitude acoustic oscillations excited by turbulent convection were detected four decades ago in ...

Structure and evolution of super-Earth to super-Jupiter exoplanets: I. heavy element enrichment in the interior [PDF]

, 2008
We examine the uncertainties in current planetary models and we quantify their impact on the planet cooling histories and mass-radius relationships.

Predicting phase transition pressure in solids: a semiclassical possibility

, 1999
This is a short review of the physical ideas,algorithm for calculations and some results of a semiclassical theory of the behaviour of materials under high pressure,proposed by P.Savic and R.Kasanin.The theory has found applications from DAC experiments ...

Architecture of Kepler's Multi-transiting Systems: II. New investigations with twice as many candidates [PDF]

, 2014
We report on the orbital architectures of Kepler systems having multiple planet candidates identified in the analysis of data from the first six quarters of Kepler data and reported by Batalha et al. (2013).

Probing the Rock Mass Fraction and Transport Efficiency inside Uranus Using 40Ar Measurements

The Planetary Science Journal
The bulk of Uranus consists of a rock–ice core, but the relative proportions of rock and ice are unknown. Radioactive decay of potassium in the silicates produces ^40 Ar.

Signatures of Planets in Spatially Unresolved Disks [PDF]

, 2005
Main sequence stars are commonly surrounded by debris disks, composed of cold dust continuously replenished by a reservoir of undetected dust-producing planetesimals. In a planetary system with a belt of planetesimals (like the Solar System's Kuiper Belt)

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Salt Distribution from Freezing Intrusions in Ice Shells on Ocean Worlds: Application to Europa

The Planetary Science Journal, 2023
Several icy moons and dwarf planets appear to have hosted subsurface liquid water. Liquid water intruding upwards into the icy outer shells of these worlds freezes, forming ice and (from ocean solutes) non-ice solids.

A Comparison of the Interiors of Jupiter and Saturn

, 1999
Interior models of Jupiter and Saturn are calculated and compared in the framework of the three-layer assumption, which rely on the perception that both planets consist of three globally homogeneous regions: a dense core, a metallic hydrogen envelope ...
