The Range of Cumulative XUV Flux on GJ 1132 b
Rory Barnes, Laura N. R. do Amaral, Jessica Birky +4
We investigate the plausible history of the XUV luminosity evolution of the planet-hosting M4 star GJ 1132 (~0.2 solar masses) to infer the cumulative incident XUV flux intercepted…
ALABI: Active Learning for Accelerated Bayesian Inference
Jessica Birky, Rory K. Barnes
We present Active Learning for Accelerated Bayesian Inference (\texttt{alabi}): an open-source Python package for performing Bayesian inference with computationally expensive model…
Investigation of Venus' thermal history, crustal evolution, and core dynamics with a coupled interior-lithosphere-atmosphere model
Rodolfo Garcia, Rory Barnes, Peter E. Driscoll +2
We simulate Venus' evolution with a coupled one-dimensional solar-atmosphere-lithosphere-mantle-core model to predict currently unobservable features and its eruptive mass flux. We…
A whole-planet model of the Earth without life for terrestrial exoplanet studies
Samantha Gilbert-Janizek, Rory K. Barnes, Peter E. Driscoll +5
As the only known habitable (and inhabited) planet in the universe, Earth informs our search for life elsewhere. Future telescopes like the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will…
Prospects of Constraining Equilibrium Tides in Low-Mass Binary Stars
Jessica Birky, Rory K. Barnes, James R. A. Davenport
The dynamical evolution of short-period low-mass binary stars (with mass , from formation to the late main-sequence, and with orbital periods less than 10 d…
