Upper atmosphere dynamics and drivers of volatiles loss from terrestrial-type (exo)planets
Daria Kubyshkina, Michael J. Way, Iannis Dandouras +7
Volatile loss from exoplanetary atmospheres and its possible implications for the longevity of habitable surface conditions is a topic of vigorous debate currently. The vast majori…
Water versus land on temperate rocky planets
Claire Marie Guimond, Tilman Spohn, Svetlana Berdyugina +6
Water and land surfaces on a planet interact with gases in the atmosphere and with radiation from the star. These interactions define the environments that prevail on the planet, s…
Potential for life to exist and be detected on Earth-like planets orbiting white dwarfs
Caldon T. Whyte, L. H. Quiroga-Nuñez, Manasvi Lingam +1
With recent observations confirming exoplanets orbiting white dwarfs, there is growing interest in exploring and quantifying the habitability of temperate rocky planets around whit…
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…
A light sail astrobiology precursor mission to Enceladus and Europa
Manasvi Lingam, Adam Hibberd, Andreas M. Hein
Icy moons with subsurface oceans of liquid water rank among the most promising astrobiological targets in our Solar System. In this work, we assess the feasibility of deploying las…
Role of Planetary Radius on Atmospheric Escape of Rocky Exoplanets
Laura Chin, Chuanfei Dong, Manasvi Lingam
Large-scale characterization of exoplanetary atmospheres is on the horizon, thereby making it possible in the future to extract their statistical properties. In this context, by us…
