High and dry: billion-year trends in the aridity of river-forming climates on Mars
Edwin S. Kite, Axel Noblet
Mars' wet-to-dry transition is a major environmental catastrophe, yet the spatial pattern, tempo, and cause of drying are poorly constrained. We built a globally-distributed databa…
Inner Habitable Zone Boundary for Eccentric Exoplanets
Xuan Ji, Nora Bailey, Daniel Fabrycky +3
The climate of a planet can be strongly affected by its eccentricity due to variations in the stellar flux. There are two limits for the dependence of the inner habitable zone boun…
The Age and Erosion Rate of Young Sedimentary Rock on Mars
An Y. Li, Edwin S. Kite, Katarina Keating
The Medusae Fossae Formation (MFF) is an enigmatic sedimentary unit near the equator of Mars, with an uncertain formation process and absolute age. Due to the heavily wind-eroded s…
A transmission spectrum of the sub-Earth planet L98-59~b in 1.1-1.7 m
Mario Damiano, Renyu Hu, Thomas Barclay +20
With the increasing number of planets discovered by TESS, the atmospheric characterization of small exoplanets is accelerating. L98-59 is a M-dwarf hosting a multi-planet system, a…
TOI-561 b: A Low Density Ultra-Short Period "Rocky" Planet around a Metal-Poor Star
Casey Brinkman, Lauren M. Weiss, Fei Dai +22
TOI-561 is a galactic thick disk star hosting an ultra-short period (0.45 day orbit) planet with a radius of 1.37 R, making it one of the most metal-poor ([Fe/H] = -0.41…
The Detectability of Rocky Planet Surface and Atmosphere Composition with JWST: The Case of LHS 3844b
Emily A. Whittaker, Matej Malik, Jegug Ih +7
The spectroscopic characterization of terrestrial exoplanets will be made possible for the first time with JWST. One challenge to characterizing such planets is that it is not know…
