Dating mylonitic overprinting of ancient rocks

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
The timing of deformation in ancient shear zones of the Akia Terrane, Greenland, is recorded by the Proterozoic Rb-Sr age of mylonitic biotite which is determined through collision cell laser ablation and inverse thermal history modelling.

Effects of unseen additional planetary perturbers on compact extrasolar planetary systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Motivated by the large number of compact extrasolar planetary systems discovered by the Kepler Mission, this paper considers perturbations due to possible additional outer planets.

Dynamical Habitability of Planetary Systems [PDF]

open access: yesAstrobiology, 2010
The problem of the stability of planetary systems, a question that concerns only multiplanetary systems that host at least two planets, is discussed. The problem of mean motion resonances is addressed prior to discussion of the dynamical structure of the more than 350 known planets.

Characterizing K2 Candidate Planetary Systems Orbiting Low-mass Stars. II. Planetary Systems Observed During Campaigns 1–7 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We recently used near-infrared spectroscopy to improve the characterization of 76 low-mass stars around which K2 had detected 79 candidate transiting planets. 29 of these worlds were new discoveries that had not previously been published.

Exoplanets: Past, Present, and Future

open access: yesGalaxies, 2018
Our understanding of extra-solar planet systems is highly driven by advances in observations in the past decade. Thanks to high precision spectrographs, we are able to reveal unseen companions to stars with the radial velocity method.

The signatures of the parental cluster on field planetary systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Due to the high stellar densities in young clusters, planetary systems formed in these environments are likely to have experienced perturbations from encounters with other stars.

Origin and Formation of Planetary Systems [PDF]

open access: yesAstrobiology, 2010
To estimate the occurrence of terrestrial exoplanets and maximize the chance of finding them, it is crucial to understand the formation of planetary systems in general and that of terrestrial planets in particular. We show that a reliable formation theory should not only explain the formation of the Solar System, with small terrestrial planets within a

Moving in the Dark: Enlightening the Spatial Population Ecology of European Cave Salamanders

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We assessed individual interactions, movement ecology and activity patterns of a subterranean population of Speleomantes strinatii, applying spatial capture–recapture modeling to a photographic dataset of 104 individuals. ABSTRACT Space use and movement are fundamental aspects of organisms' ecology, mirroring individual fitness, behavior, and life ...

Widespread reworking of Hadean-to-Eoarchean continents during Earth’s thermal peak

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The nature and evolution of Earth’s crust during the Hadean and Eoarchean is largely unknown due to the lack of preserved material from this period. Here, the authors document a period of crustal rejuvenation between 3.2 and 3.0 Ga, coincident with peak ...

Research on the Coupled Phase-Tuning Vibration Characteristics of a Two-Stage Planetary Transmission System

open access: yesMachines, 2023
Mesh phasing has a dramatic impact on the static and dynamic behaviours of planetary gear systems. This research investigates the coupled phase-tuning mechanism of two-stage planetary gear systems and the corresponding relationship with the coupled ...
