Growth model interpretation of planet size distribution
The radii and orbital periods of 4,000+ confirmed/candidate exoplanets have been precisely
measured by the Kepler mission. The radii show a bimodal distribution, with two peaks …

[HTML][HTML] Moons are planets: Scientific usefulness versus cultural teleology in the taxonomy of planetary science
PT Metzger, WM Grundy, MV Sykes, A Stern, JF Bell III… - Icarus, 2022 - Elsevier
We argue that taxonomical concept development is vital for planetary science as in all
branches of science, but its importance has been obscured by unique historical …

Dependence of biological activity on the surface water fraction of planets
One of the unique features associated with the Earth is that the fraction of its surface covered
by land is comparable to that spanned by its oceans and other water bodies. Here, we …

An 11 Earth-mass, long-period sub-Neptune orbiting a Sun-like star
Although several thousands of exoplanets have now been detected and characterized,
observational biases have led to a paucity of long-period, low-mass exoplanets with …
