“Beyond the Earth: the trail of elemental carbon in planet formation” Our solar system contains clues to the composition of extrasolar terrestrial worlds and the rocky cores of mini-Neptune’s. I will present a new model for the composition of planets that form in the inner few au near their stellar hosts. This model is developed […]

If the Earth’s mean temperature rises by 2.5 degrees C (4.5 degrees F) in 2069, how much warmer will it be in Boston? Anchorage? Beijing? Sao Paulo?… What kind of policies could mitigate these increases? In MIT’s Grand Challenge: Bringing Computing to Climate, we’ve developed programs which can enable you to run a fast and accurate […]
