Carbonate clumped isotope thermometry of fault rocks and its possibilities: tectonic implications from calcites within Himalayan Frontal Fold-Thrust Belt

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2021
Disentangling the temperature and depth of formation of fault rocks is critical for understanding their rheology, exhumation, and the evolution of fault zones.

Revisiting the Planet Mass and Stellar Metallicity Relation for Low-Mass Exoplanets Orbiting GKM Class Stars

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
The growing database of exoplanets has shown us the statistical characteristics of various exoplanet populations, providing insight towards their origins.

Sensitivity of elastic thickness to water in the Martian lithosphere

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2019
Ancient Mars likely hosted oceans similar to those on Earth; however, such water is not presently observed on Mars. One possible explanation for the lack of present-day oceans is that surface water was transported into and stored within the interior of ...

Accurate Mass Measurements for Planetary Microlensing Events Using High Angular Resolution Observations

open access: yesUniverse, 2018
The microlensing technique is a unique method to hunt for cold planets over a range of mass and separation, orbiting all varieties of host stars in the disk of our galaxy.

Properties of the Planetary Caustic Perturbation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Just two of 10 extrasolar planets found by microlensing have been detected by the planetary caustic despite the higher probability of planet detection relative to the central caustic which has been responsible for four extrasolar planet detections.

The resilience of Kepler systems to stellar obliquity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Kepler mission and its successor K2 have brought forth a cascade of transiting planets. Many of these planetary systems exhibit multiple members, but a large fraction possess only a single transiting example. This overabundance of singles has lead to

MAHLI on Mars: lessons learned operating a geoscience camera on a landed payload robotic arm [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Instrumentation, Methods and Data Systems, 2016
The Mars Hand Lens Imager (MAHLI) is a 2-megapixel, color camera with resolution as high as 13.9 µm pixel−1. MAHLI has operated successfully on the Martian surface for over 1150 Martian days (sols) aboard the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) rover ...

The fragility of planetary systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We specify the range to which perturbations penetrate a planetesimal system. Such perturbations can originate from massive planets or from encounters with other stars.

A natural formation scenario for misaligned and short-period eccentric extrasolar planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Recent discoveries of strongly misaligned transiting exoplanets pose a challenge to the established planet formation theory which assumes planetary systems to form and evolve in isolation.
