Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Yifan Zhou, Brendan P. Bowler, Kevin R. Wagner, Glenn Schneider, Dániel Apai | Summary: Recent discoveries of young exoplanets within their natal disks offer exciting opportunities to study ongoing planet formation. In particular, a planet’s mass accretion rate can be constrained by observing the accretion-induced excess […]

Kavli Affiliate: Troy A. Porter | First 5 Authors: Guðlaugur Jóhannesson, Troy A. Porter, , , | Summary: Cosmic-ray (CR) sources temporarily enhance the relativistic particle density in their vicinity over the background distribution accumulated from the Galaxy-wide past injection activity and propagation. If individual sources are close enough to the solar system, their localised […]
