Exoplanet Host Star Shares Elemental Traits with Its Hot Jupiter

An ultra-hot Jupiter exoplanet orbiting a nearby star gave scientists using the Gemini South telescope a look at how both a star and its hot planet can have similar chemical compositions. The team, le...

Hidden Oceans of Magma Could Be Protecting Alien Life

Deep within massive rocky exoplanets, hidden oceans of molten rock may be generating powerful magnetic fields in an unexpected way.

Between eternal night and day, the faces of two cousins of Earth

An international team including the University of Bern (UNIBE) and the University of Geneva (UNIGE), members of the National Center of Competence in Research PlanetS, has succeeded in mapping the climate of rocky exoplanets with masses similar to Earth for the first time. This breakthrough is based on continuous observations using the James Webb Space Telescope.

On Exoplanet 79473 there are flowers that look just like flowers on Earth. But the life cycle is different. It is part of a symbiotic relationship. The equivalent to an earthen bee is called Erysithsilo that lays it eggs in the winter pod of this flower. When the flower blooms the Erysithsilo grows in a yellow ball at the centre of the flower, once it matures it pushes it’s way out of the pod, with it’s three antennae coming out first. In doing this, the native bee pollinates the plant as well as perpetuates its own life.

Zwischen ewiger Nacht und ewigem Tag: Klimakarten zweier Erdverwandter

Mit Hilfe des James-Webb-Weltraumteleskops JWST ist es einem internationalen Team mit Beteiligung der Universität Bern, der Universität Genf sowie des Nationalen Forschungsschwerpunkts (NFS) PlanetS gelungen, detaillierte Klimakarten von zwei felsigen Exoplaneten mit erdähnlicher Masse zu erstellen. Die Messungen offenbaren ein Extremklima: Auf den Tagseiten steigen die Temperaturen auf weit über 100 Grad Celsius, während die Nachtseiten in Kälte unter –200 Grad Celsius erstarren. Diese ausgeprägten Gegensätze sprechen dafür, dass die Planeten keine dichten Atmosphären besitzen. Die beiden untersuchten Planeten gehören zum legendären Planetensystem TRAPPIST-1, das als wahres Labor für die Erforschung von extrasolaren Welten gilt.
