A candidate planet outside our solar system was validated using data from the Habitable-zone Planet Finder Spectrograph. Credit: Gudmundur Stefansson “The spectroscopic observations from HPF allowed us to place an upper bound of 12 Earth masses on the mass of the planet,” said Caleb Cañas, ...
We present the scientific motivation and conceptual design for the recentlyfunded Habitable-zone Planet Finder (HPF), a stabilized fiber-fed near-infrared(NIR) spectrograph for the 10 meter class Hobby-Eberly Telescope (HET) thatwill be capable of discovering low mass planets around M dwarfs. The...
A 'Habitable Zone' refers to the region around a star where a rocky planet could have the right temperature for liquid water to exist on its surface, making it a potential environment for life to thrive. AI generated definition based on: Interstellar Travel, 2023 ...

The planet is located in thehabitable zone of its host star, which is a narrow circumstellar region where temperatures are neither too hot nor too cold for liquid water to exist on the planet's surface. "It's the Holy Grail of exoplanet research to find a planet around a star orbiting...
“But given Proxima Centauri is a cool, small red-dwarf star, it means thishabitable zoneis very close to the star; much closer in than Mercury is to our Sun,” he said. “What our research shows is that this makes the planets very vulnerable to dangerous ionizing radiat...
In particular, they used a model in which the phase lag between the passage of the perturber and the tidal bulge is constant and concluded that an Earth-like planet’s rotational frequency would synchronize with the orbital frequency in the habitable zone (HZ; the shell around a star for ...
