Less effective hydrodynamic escape of H-HO atmospheres on terrestrial planets orbiting pre-main sequence M dwarfs
Tatsuya Yoshida, Naoki Terada, Masahiro Ikoma +1
Terrestrial planets currently in the habitable zones around M dwarfs likely experienced a long-term runaway greenhouse condition because of a slow decline in host-stellar luminosit…
Polarimetric Properties of the Near--Sun Asteroid (155140) 2005 UD in Comparison with Other Asteroids and Meteoritic Samples

The asteroid exploration project "Hayabusa2" has successfully returned samples from the asteroid (162173) Ryugu. In this study, we measured the linear polarization degrees of Ryugu…
HO-induced Greenhouse Warming on Oxidized Early Mars
Yuichi Ito, George L. Hashimoto, Yoshiyuki O. Takahashi +2
The existence of liquid water within an oxidized environment on early Mars has been inferred by the Mn-rich rocks found during recent explorations on Mars. The oxidized atmosphere…
Obliquity of an Earth-like planet from frequency modulation of its direct imaged lightcurve: mock analysis from general circulation model simulation
Yuta Nakagawa, Takanori Kodama, Masaki Ishiwatari +8
Direct-imaging techniques of exoplanets have made significant progress recently, and will eventually enable to monitor photometric and spectroscopic signals of earth-like habitable…
Diagnosing the Clumpy Protoplanetary Disk of the UXor Type Young Star GM Cephei
P. C. Huang, W. P. Chen, M. Mugrauer +29
UX Orionis stars (UXors) are Herbig Ae/Be or T Tauri stars exhibiting sporadic occultation of stellar light by circumstellar dust. GM\,Cephei is such a UXor in the young (~M…
Science Objectives of the Ganymede Laser Altimeter (GALA) for the JUICE Mission
Jun Kimura, Hauke Hussmann, Shunichi Kamata +11
