Secondary atmospheres on HD 219134 b and c

Caroline Dorn, Kevin Heng

We analyze the interiors of HD~219134~b and c, which are among the coolest super Earths detected thus far. Without using spectroscopic measurements, we aim at constraining if the p…

Constraining planet structure and composition from stellar chemistry: trends in different stellar populations

N. C. Santos, V. Adibekyan, C. Dorn +8

The chemical composition of stars that have orbiting planets provides important clues about the frequency, architecture, and composition of exoplanet systems. We explore the possib…

Assessing the Interior Structure of Terrestrial Exoplanets with Implications for Habitability

Caroline Dorn, Dan J. Bower, Antoine B. Rozel

Astrophysical observations reveal a large diversity of radii and masses of exoplanets. It is important to characterize the interiors of exoplanets to understand planetary diversity…

The language of exoplanet ranking metrics needs to change

Elizabeth Tasker, Joshua Tan, Kevin Heng +14

We have found many Earth-sized worlds but we have no way of determining if their surfaces are Earth-like. This makes it impossible to quantitatively compare habitability, and prete…

Inferring transport characteristics in a fractured rock aquifer by combining single-hole GPR reflection monitoring and tracer test data

C. Dorn, N. Linde, T. Le Borgne +2

Investigations of solute transport in fractured rock aquifers often rely on tracer test data acquired at a limited number of observation points. Such data do not, by themselves, al…

Single-hole GPR reflection imaging of solute transport in a granitic aquifer

C. Dorn, N- Linde, T. Le Borgne +2

Identifying transport pathways in fractured rock is extremely challenging as flow is often organized in a few fractures that occupy a very small portion of the rock volume. We demo…
