• Abstract summary: We study Habitable Zones of circumbinary planets based on planetary trajectory and dynamically informed habitable zones. Our results indicate that the mass ratio and orbital eccentricity of binary stars are important factors affecting the orbital stability and habitability of planetary systems. We train a machine learning model to quickly and efficiently classify these planetary systems.

• Abstract: Exoplanet detection in the past decade by efforts including NASA's Kepler and TESS missions has discovered many worlds that differ substantially from planets in our own Solar System, including more than 150 exoplanets orbiting binary or multi-star systems. This not only broadens our understanding of the diversity of exoplanets, but also promotes our study of exoplanets in the complex binary systems and provides motivation to explore their habitability. In this study, we investigate the Habitable Zones of circumbinary planets based on planetary trajectory and dynamically informed habitable zones. Our results indicate that the mass ratio and orbital eccentricity of binary stars are important factors affecting the orbital stability and habitability of planetary systems. Moreover, planetary trajectory and dynamically informed habitable zones divide planetary habitability into three categories: habitable, part-habitable and uninhabitable. Therefore, we train a machine learning model to quickly and efficiently classify these planetary systems.

  We introduce NEOviz, an interactive visualization system designed to assist planetary defense experts in the visual analysis of near-Earth objects. In particular, we present a novel approach for visualizing the 3D uncertainty region through which an asteroid travels. For potential impactors, we combine the 3D visualization with an uncertainty-aware impact map to illustrate the potential risks to human populations.

  We search for additional exoplanets in 229 multi-planetary systems that house at least three or more confirmed planets. We employ efficient machine learning approaches to analyze a dataset comprising 762 confirmed exoplanets and eight Solar System planets. For giant planets, we observe a strong correlation between planetary radius and the mass of their host stars, which might provide intriguing insights into the relationship between giant planet formation and stellar characteristics.

  We develop DBNets, a tool to quickly infer the mass of allegedly embedded planets from protoplanetary discs. We extensively tested our tool on out-of-distribution data. DBNets can identify inputs strongly outside its training scope returning an uncertainty above a specific threshold. It can be reliably applied only on discs observed with inclinations below approximately 60deg, in the optically thin regime.

  We analyze orbital stability of exoplanets in non-coplanar circumbinary systems using a numerical simulation method. We train a machine learning model that can quickly determine the stability of the circumbinary planetary systems. Our results indicate that larger inclinations of the planet tend to increase the stability of its orbit, but change in the planet's mass range between Earth and Jupiter has little effect on the stability of the system.
