Resonant planetary dynamics: Periodic orbits and long-term stability

open access: yes, 2013
Many exo-solar systems discovered in the last decade consist of planets orbiting in resonant configurations and consequently, their evolution should show long-term stability.

Super-Earths: A New Class of Planetary Bodies

open access: yes, 2011
Super-Earths, a class of planetary bodies with masses ranging from a few Earth-masses to slightly smaller than Uranus, have recently found a special place in the exoplanetary science.

The Influence of Interplanetary Magnetic Field Orientations on the Martian Bow Shock and Magnetosheath Magnetic Field

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Unlike Earth, Mars lacks a global intrinsic magnetic field but has regional crustal magnetic fields concentrated in its southern hemisphere. This unique configuration leads to distinctive interactions with the solar wind.

Tides and the Evolution of Planetary Habitability

open access: yes, 2008
Tides raised on a planet by its host star's gravity can reduce a planet's orbital semi-major axis and eccentricity. This effect is only relevant for planets orbiting very close to their host stars.

Hybrid Simulations of the Martian Magnetotail Twist

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Three-dimensional global hybrid simulations are performed to explore how the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF), the Martian crustal fields, and planetary pickup ions affect the twisting of the Martian magnetotail.

S/W Development of High Precesion EPHEMERIS(I) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1993
We developed the S/W which calculate the Planetary and the Moon ephemerides. The ephemeris of the Solar system objects was obtained from a simultaneous numerical integration of the equations of motion for the nine planets and the Moon.

Modeling magnetospheric fields in the Jupiter system

open access: yes, 2017
The various processes which generate magnetic fields within the Jupiter system are exemplary for a large class of similar processes occurring at other planets in the solar system, but also around extrasolar planets.

The Influence of General Relativity on the Spins of Celestial Bodies in Inclined Orbits

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Through the Rossiter–McLaughlin effect, several hot Jupiters have been found to exhibit spin–orbit misalignment and even retrograde orbits. The high obliquity observed in these planets can be attributed to two primary formation mechanisms, as summarized ...

X-rays Studies of the Solar System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
X-ray observatories contribute fundamental advances in Solar System studies by probing Sun-object interactions, developing planet and satellite surface composition maps, probing global magnetospheric dynamics, and tracking astrochemical reactions ...
