Improved Constraints for the XUV Luminosity Evolution of Trappist-1

Jessica Birky, Rory Barnes, David P. Fleming

We re-examine the XUV luminosity evolution of TRAPPIST-1 utilizing new observational constraints (XUV and bolometric luminosity) from multi-epoch X-ray/UV photometry. Following the…

Orbital evolution of potentially habitable planets of tidally interacting binary stars

David E. Graham, David P. Fleming, Rory Barnes

We simulate the coupled stellar and tidal evolution of short-period binary stars (orbital period $P_{orb} \lsim$8 days) to investigate the orbital oscillations, instellation cycles…

On The XUV Luminosity Evolution of TRAPPIST-1

David P. Fleming, Rory Barnes, Rodrigo Luger +1

We model the long-term XUV luminosity of TRAPPIST-1 to constrain the evolving high-energy radiation environment experienced by its planetary system. Using Markov Chain Monte Carlo…

VPLanet: The Virtual Planet Simulator

Rory Barnes, Rodrigo Luger, Russell Deitrick +14

We describe a software package called VPLanet that simulates fundamental aspects of planetary system evolution over Gyr timescales, with a focus on investigating habitable worlds.…

A Statistical Comparative Planetology Approach to Maximize the Scientific Return of Future Exoplanet Characterization Efforts

Jade H. Checlair, Dorian S. Abbot, Robert J. Webber +37

Provided that sufficient resources are deployed, we can look forward to an extraordinary future in which we will characterize potentially habitable planets. Until now, we have had…

The Importance of 3D General Circulation Models for Characterizing the Climate and Habitability of Terrestrial Extrasolar Planets

Eric T. Wolf, Ravi Kopparapu, Vladimir Airapetian +27

While recently discovered exotic new planet-types have both challenged our imaginations and broadened our knowledge of planetary system workings, perhaps the most compelling object…
