Inside the Eirenesphere: The Interplay of Porosity, Heat Flux and Mineralogy in Exoplanetary Aquable and Habitable Layers

Santiago A. Orjuela, Jorge I. Zuluaga

The classical circumstellar habitable zone restricts the search for life to planetary surfaces where stellar irradiation sustains liquid water, overlooking vast subsurface environm…

Probing Exoplanetary Rings with Asterodensity Profiling: A PhotoRing Analysis of Kepler-51

Jorge I. Zuluaga, Sebastian Numpaque, David M. Kipping +1

The Kepler-51 system hosts transiting super-puff planets whose extremely low bulk densities challenge structural models, possibly because unresolved rings inflate their inferred ra…

Three-dimensional circumplanetary flows in a PDS 70c-inspired system: hydrodynamic simulations with FARGO3D and analysis with FARGOpy

Alejandro Murillo-Gonzalez, Jorge I. Zuluaga, Matias Montesinos

The detection of circumplanetary material around the forming planet PDS~70c provides a valuable setting for studying three-dimensional gas accretion during giant-planet formation.…

Orbital Decay of the Ultra-Hot Jupiter TOI-2109b: Tidal Constraints and Transit-Timing Analysis

Jaime A. Alvarado-Montes, Mario Sucerquia, Jorge I. Zuluaga +1

TOI-2109b is the ultra-hot Jupiter with the shortest orbital period (hr) yet discovered. At this close distance, strong tidal interactions can produce a significant excha…

The missing rings around Solar System moons

Mario Sucerquia, Jaime A. Alvarado-Montes, Jorge I. Zuluaga +3

Rings are complex structures surrounding giant planets and some minor bodies in the Solar System. While some formation mechanisms could also potentially foster their existence arou…

A general polarimetric model for transiting and non-transiting ringed exoplanets

Allard K. Veenstra, Jorge I. Zuluaga, Jaime A. Alvarado-Montes +2

We explore the potential of polarimetry as a tool for detecting and characterizing exorings. For that purpose, we have improved the publicly available photometric code Pryngles by…
