Resolving core-envelope degeneracies in giant planets and sub-Neptunes: constraining the equivalence in the presence of dilute gradients
Christian Wilkinson, Benjamin Charnay, Stéphane Mazevet +4
The widespread recognition of dilute, "fuzzy" cores in giant planets and massive volatile mantles in sub-Neptunes has made interior modelling a highly degenerate, multi-dimensional…
Bioverse: Potentially Observable Exoplanet Biosignature Patterns Under the UV Threshold Hypothesis for the Origin of Life
Martin Schlecker, Dániel Apai, Antonin Affholder +5
A wide variety of scenarios for the origin of life have been proposed, with many influencing the prevalence and distribution of biosignatures across exoplanet populations. This rel…
Evidence for a sub-jovian planet in the young TWA7 disk
A. -M. Lagrange, C. Wilkinson, M. Mâlin +26
Planets are thought to form from dust and gas in protoplanetary disks, and debris disks are the remnants of planet formation. Aged a few Myr up to a few Gyr, debris disks have lost…
Breaking degeneracies in exoplanetary parameters through self-consistent atmosphere-interior modelling
Christian Wilkinson, Benjamin Charnay, Stéphane Mazevet +5
Context: A new generation of instruments (e.g., JWST, ELTs, PLATO and Ariel) is providing atmospheric spectra and mass/radius measurements for large exoplanet populations, challeng…
