Tidal Heating and the Habitability of the TRAPPIST-1 Exoplanets
Vera Dobos, Amy C. Barr, László L. Kiss
Context. New estimates of the masses and radii of the seven planets orbiting the ultracool M-dwarf TRAPPIST-1 star permit improved modelling of their compositions, heating by tidal…
Interior Structures and Tidal Heating in the TRAPPIST-1 Planets
Amy C. Barr, Vera Dobos, László L. Kiss
With seven planets, the TRAPPIST-1 system has the largest number of exoplanets discovered in a single system so far. The system is of astrobiological interest, because three of its…
Geoscience for understanding habitability in the solar system and beyond
Veronique Dehant, Vinciane Debaille, Vera Dobos +15
This paper reviews habitability conditions for a terrestrial planet from the point of view of geosciences. It addresses how interactions between the interior of a planet or a moon…
Detecting volcanically produced tori along orbits of exoplanets using UV spectroscopy
Kristina G. Kislyakova, Luca Fossati, Denis Shulyak +17
We suggest to use the Hubble Space Telescople (HST) follow-up observations of the TESS targets for detecting possible plasma tori along the orbits of exoplanets orbiting M dwarfs.…
A target list for searching for habitable exomoons
Vera Dobos, András Haris, Inga E. E. Kamp +1
We investigate the habitability of hypothethical moons orbiting known exoplanets. This study focuses on big, rocky exomoons that are capable of maintaining a significant atmosphere…
Water content of rocky exoplanets in the habitable zone
Ãdám Boldog, Vera Dobos, László L. Kiss +2
In this study we investigated the interiors of rocky exoplanets in order to identify those that may have large quantities of water. We modelled the interiors of 28 rocky exoplanets…
