Chaotic Dynamics of Stellar Spin in Binaries and the Production of Misaligned Hot Jupiters

, 2014
Many exoplanetary systems containing hot Jupiters are observed to have highly misaligned orbital axes relative to the stellar spin axes. Kozai-Lidov oscillations of orbital eccentricity/inclination induced by a binary companion, in conjunction with tidal

Mesoscale and Submesoscale Variability in the Indian Ocean

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Material transport and air‐sea coupling dynamics associated with monsoon‐related mesoscale and submesoscale processes in the Indian Ocean significantly modulate biogeochemical cycles, the large‐scale energy balance, and both regional and global climate change.

Initial Atmospheric Waves Experiment (AWE) Imaging Analyses: Gravity Wave Sources, Temperatures, Pseudomomentum Fluxes, and Horizontal Wavenumber Spectra at the OH Layer

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract The NASA Atmospheric Waves Experiment (AWE) employs an OH imager that began measurements aboard the International Space Station (ISS) on 22 November 2023. The motivation for AWE was to quantify gravity wave (GW) responses to diverse sources and their influences extending into the mesosphere and higher altitudes.

From Tides to Currents: Unraveling the Mechanism that Powers WASP-107b’s Internal Heat Flux

The Astrophysical Journal
The sub-Jovian exoplanet WASP-107b ranks among the best-characterized low-density worlds, featuring a Jupiter-like radius and a mass that lies firmly in the sub-Saturn range.

Biogeomorphic Feedbacks Triggered by Mangrove Degradation at the Seaward Margin Accelerate Persistent Vegetation Decline

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Seaward mangrove edge exhibited significant retreat after extreme disturbances. Rhizophora stylosa exhibited impaired regeneration and root damage in heavily disturbed areas, trait variation primarily responded to elevation and sediment properties, vegetation loss triggered subsidence, creating a positive biogeomorphic feedback loop.

On the Particular Dynamics of Rubble-Pile Asteroid Rotation Following Projectile Impact on the Surface During Planetary Approach

Mathematics
The main motivation of this research is the semi-analytical exploration of the dynamics of an asteroid that is attacked while approaching a planet (with an inelastic collision of the projectile normally to the surface of the asteroid occurring just ...

Weak tides during Cryogenian glaciations

Nature Communications, 2020
How and why the ‘Snowball Earth’ occurred during the Cryogenian period is debated. Here, the authors show that the cryogenian ocean hosted diminished tidal amplitudes and associated energy dissipation rates, reaching 10-50% of today’s rates thus perhaps ...

Understanding WASP-12b

, 2018
The orbital period of the hot Jupiter WASP-12b is apparently changing. We study whether this reflects orbital decay due to tidal dissipation in the star, or apsidal precession of a slightly eccentric orbit.

Thermal Field–Enhanced Electro‐, Photo‐, and Photoelectrocatalytic Processes: Fundamentals, Material Design, and Applications

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 3, May 2026.
Overview of thermal field–enhanced electro‐, photo‐, and photoelectrocatalytic processes: fundamentals, material design, and applications. As a very attractive approach to energy conversion and storage, electrocatalytic, photocatalytic, and photoelectrocatalytic strategies have gained increasing attention in the past decades.
