Deciphering thermal phase curves of dry, tidally locked terrestrial planets
Daniel D. B. Koll, Dorian S. Abbot
Next-generation space telescopes will allow us to characterize terrestrial exoplanets. To do so effectively it will be crucial to make use of all available data. We investigate whi…

Water Trapping on Tidally Locked Terrestrial Planets Requires Special Conditions
Jun Yang, Yonggang Liu, Yongyun Hu +1
Surface liquid water is essential for standard planetary habitability. Calculations of atmospheric circulation on tidally locked planets around M stars suggest that this peculiar o…

Strong Dependence of the Inner Edge of the Habitable Zone on Planetary Rotation Rate
Jun Yang, Gwenael Boue, Daniel C. Fabrycky +1
Planetary rotation rate is a key parameter in determining atmospheric circulation and hence the spatial pattern of clouds. Since clouds can exert a dominant control on planetary ra…
