Photosynthetic exergy I. Thermodynamic limits for habitable-zone planets

Giovanni Covone, Amedeo Balbi

Photosynthesis is central to Earth's biosphere and a prime candidate for sustaining complex life on habitable exoplanets, yet a thermodynamically consistent treatment of the work p…

The Impact of Supermassive Black Holes on Exoplanet Habitability. I. Spanning the Natural Mass Range

Jourdan Waas, Eric S. Perlman, Manasvi Lingam +5

While the influence of supermassive black hole (SMBH) activity on habitability has garnered attention, the specific effects of active galactic nucleus (AGN) winds, particularly ult…

What if we find nothing? Bayesian analysis of the statistical information of null results in future exoplanet habitability and biosignature surveys

Daniel Angerhausen, Amedeo Balbi, Andjelka B. Kovačević +2

Future telescopes will survey temperate, terrestrial exoplanets to estimate the frequency of habitable () or inhabited () planets. This study aims…

Waste Heat and Habitability: Constraints from Technological Energy Consumption

Amedeo Balbi, Manasvi Lingam

Waste heat production represents an inevitable consequence of energy conversion as per the laws of thermodynamics. Based on this fact, by using simple theoretical models, we analyz…

Dwellers in the Deep: Biological Consequences of Dark Oxygen

Manasvi Lingam, Amedeo Balbi, Madhur Tiwari

The striking recent putative detection of "dark oxygen" (dark O) sources on the abyssal ocean floor in the Pacific at km depth raises the intriguing scenario that comp…

The Impact of Tidal Disruption Events on Galactic Habitability

E. Pacetti, A. Balbi, M. Lingam +2

Tidal Disruption Events (TDEs) are characterized by the emission of a short burst of high-energy radiation. We analyze the cumulative impact of TDEs on galactic habitability using…
