Exomoons in the habitable zones of M dwarfs
Héctor Martínez-Rodríguez, José Antonio Caballero, Carlos Cifuentes +2
M dwarfs host most of the exoplanets in the local Milky Way. Some of these planets, ranging from sub-Earths to super-Jupiters, orbit in their stars' habitable zones (HZs), although…
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…
Impact of Space Weather on Climate and Habitability of Terrestrial Type Exoplanets
V. S. Airapetian, R. Barnes, O. Cohen +43
The current progress in the detection of terrestrial type exoplanets has opened a new avenue in the characterization of exoplanetary atmospheres and in the search for biosignatures…
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.…
The Pointing Limits of Transiting Exoplanet Light Curve Characterization with Pixel Level De-correlation
Nicholas Saunders, Rodrigo Luger, Rory Barnes
We present scope (Simulated CCD Observations for Photometric Experimentation), a Python package to create a forward model of telescope detectors and simulate stellar targets with m…
Consequences of Tidal Dissipation in a Putative Venusian Ocean
J. A. M. Green, M. J. Way, R. Barnes
The solar tide in an ancient Venusian ocean is simulated using a dedicated numerical tidal model. Simulations with varying ocean depth and rotational periods ranging from -243 to 6…
