Journal Article
THE FIRST PLANET CONFIRMED TO HAVE A PERMANENT DARK SIDE
2024
Overview
In a study published last month in The AstrophysicalJ ournal, scientists provide the most compelling evidence so far that a planet has this feature1, called tidal synchronization or 1:1 tidal locking. Compelling case \"This is the most compelling evidence one could possibly gather with currently existing information or instrumentation,\" says Emily Rauscher, a theoretical astrophysicist at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Astronomer Emily Whittaker at the University of California, Los Angeles, notes that the paper assumes LHS 3844b has no atmosphere, but that a 2022 study they co-authored left room for a thin atmosphere3.
