The signatures of the parental cluster on field planetary systems

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.

Time-dependent MHD Simulation of the Lunar Limb Compression Caused by the Core-induced Magnetic Field

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using a time-dependent magnetohydrodynamic simulation, we demonstrated the lunar limb compression caused by the core-induced magnetic field. When a sudden change occurs in the upstream interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), an induced response is generated

Relativistic Effects in Extrasolar Planetary Systems

open access: yes, 2006
This paper considers general relativistic (GR) effects in currently observed extrasolar planetary systems. Although GR corrections are small, they can compete with secular interactions in these systems and thereby play an important role.

Exoplanetary Geophysics -- An Emerging Discipline

open access: yes, 2015
Thousands of extrasolar planets have been discovered, and it is clear that the galactic planetary census draws on a diversity greatly exceeding that exhibited by the solar system's planets.

A Decrease in Slope Angles on Insolated Martian Slopes: Ground-based Experiments

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Dry granular flow on Martian slopes can benefit from subsoil Knudsen compressors induced by thermal creep gas flow. The required temperature gradient for this natural compressor can be set by insolation.

Characterizing Multi-planet Systems with Classical Secular Theory

open access: yes, 2014
Classical secular theory can be a powerful tool to describe the qualitative character of multi-planet systems and offer insight into their histories. The eigenmodes of the secular behavior, rather than current orbital elements, can help identify tidal ...

Three-dimensional Global Hybrid Simulation of Magnetosheath Jets at Mercury

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Plasma high-speed jets are common in Earth’s magnetosheath, and they significantly perturb the magnetosheath and affect the magnetosphere. The space environment of Mercury, characterized by the bow shock, magnetosheath, and magnetosphere, shares many ...

The applications of chemical thermodynamics and chemical kinetics to planetary atmospheres research [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
A review of the applications of chemical thermodynamics and chemical kinetics to planetary atmospheres research during the past four decades is presented with an emphasis on chemical equilibrium models and thermochemical kinetics.

Use of satellite data and modeling to assess the influence of stratospheric processes on the troposphere [PDF]

open access: yes
Current research focused on the examination of the effects of ozone heating and Newtonian cooling on the linear stability of transient planetary waves.
