In the standard formation models of terrestrial planets in the solar system and close-in super-Earths in nonresonant orbits recently discovered by exoplanet observations, planets are formed by giant impacts of protoplanets or planetary embryos after the ...

Abstract In South Korea, forest scientists refashion themselves as “climate sentinels” as they confront subtle yet disquieting shifts in plant seasonality brought about by climate change. Unlike traditional sentinels, who watch for external threats from a frontier, climate sentinels face ecological anomalies and surprises—such as untimely flowering ...

The Sun is depleted in refractory elements compared to nearby solar twins, which may be linked to the formation of giant or terrestrial planets. Here we present high-resolution, high signal-to-noise spectroscopic data for 17 solar-like stars hosting ...

Recent advances in the interior structure of the gas giants
Jupiter and Saturn, as the gas giants of our solar system, account for over 90% of the total mass beyond the Sun and hold most of the system's angular momentum, playing a crucial role in the early history of the solar system.

Dependencies of Mantle Shock Heating in Pairwise Accretion
The final assembly of planets involves mutual collisions of large similar-sized protoplanets (“giant impacts”), setting the stage for modern geologic and atmospheric processes.

ABSTRACT Masculinity is often portrayed as a barrier to shifting away from fossil fuels because jobs in extractive industries represent a nostalgic masculine breadwinner identity. Accordingly, proposals for a just energy transition have provoked backlash aimed at protecting against perceived threats to manhood.

NIRCam and MIRI coronagraphy has successfully demonstrated the ability to directly image young sub-Jupiter-mass and mature gas giant exoplanets. However, these modes struggle to reach the sensitivities needed to find the population of cold giant planets ...

Xenoliths in meteorites: Insights into the dynamics of material exchange between asteroids
Abstract A minor fraction of meteorites contains xenoliths, that is, clasts that were formed on a different parent body than that of the host lithology. The occurrence of xenoliths is direct evidence for the exchange of material between asteroids, including exchanges between asteroids from the carbonaceous (CC) and non‐carbonaceous (NC) reservoirs ...

Effects of Outer Giant Planets on In Situ Formation of Inner Super-Earths
Recent studies have found an observational correlation between the presence of outer giant planets and inner super-Earths, which implies that outer giants do not suppress the formation of super-Earths.

Tectonics on Early Earth Driven by Earth's Changing Shape During Tidal Recession of the Moon
Abstract Few fragments of Earth's earliest crust have survived, and so this formative period of our planet's history is shrouded in mystery. To leverage the limited data available, it is important to understand all the processes that could have shaped our young planet.
