Ever Wondered How Many Earthlike Planets Exist in the Observable Universe? Let’s…
We’re gonna calculate how many Earth sized planets orbit within the habitable zone of Sunlike stars across the visible universe. There are about 2 planets around an average star, about 100 billion ...
MOA-2009-BLG-387Lb: A massive planet orbiting an M dwarf
We report the discovery of a planet with a high planet-to-star mass ratio in the microlensing event MOA-2009-BLG-387, which exhibited pronounced deviations over a 12-day interval, one of the longest for any planetary event. The host is an M dwarf, wi...
Planetary Spectrum Generator: an accurate online radiative transfer suite for at…
We have developed an online radiative-transfer suite (https://psg.gsfc.nasa.gov) applicable to a broad range of planetary objects (e.g., planets, moons, comets, asteroids, TNOs, KBOs, exoplanets). The Planetary Spectrum Generator (PSG) can synthesize...
Audience Reach of Scientific Data Visualizations in Planetarium-Screened Films
Quantifying the global reach of planetarium dome shows presents significant challenges due to the lack of standardized viewership tracking mechanisms across diverse planetarium venues. We present an analysis of the global impact of dome shows, presen...
The New Generation Planetary Population Synthesis (NGPPS). VI. Introducing KOBE:…
(abridged) Observations of exoplanets indicate the existence of several correlations in the architecture of planetary systems. Exoplanets within a system tend to be of similar size and mass, evenly spaced, and are often ordered in size and mass. Smal...
Upper Critical Field of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ under In-Plane Uniaxial Pressure
In-plane uniaxial pressure has been shown to strongly tune the superconducting state of Sr2RuO4 by approaching a Lifshitz transition and associated Van Hove singularity (VHS) in the density of states. At the VHS, $T_c$ and the in- and out-of-plane up...
Dynamical Evolution of Planetary Systems
Planetary systems can evolve dynamically even after the planets themselves have fully formed, and there is circumstantial evidence that most planetary systems become unstable after the disappearance of the gaseous protoplanetary disk. Theories of pla...
Observations of Extrasolar Planets Enabled by a Return to the Moon
Ambitious studies of Earth-like extrasolar planets are outlined in the context of an exploration initiative for a return to the Earth's Moon. Two mechanism for linearly polarizing light reflected from Earth-like planets are discussed: 1) Rayleigh-s...
Earth and Terrestrial Planet Formation
The growth and composition of Earth is a direct consequence of planet formation throughout the Solar System. We discuss the known history of the Solar System, the proposed stages of growth and how the early stages of planet formation may be dominated...

C.S. Lewis was a versatile writer. His sci-fi series The Space Trilogy is his best work. Here's a review of Out of the Silent Planet.
A note on Lee-Yang zeros in the negative half-plane
We obtain lower bounds on the inverse compressibility of systems whose Lee-Yang zeros of the grand-canonical partition function lie in the left half of the complex fugacity plane. This includes in particular systems whose zeros lie on the negative re...
