Statistics And Habitability of F-type Star–Planet Systems
F-type star–planet systems represent an intriguing case for habitability studies. Although F-type stars spend considerably less time on the main-sequence than G, K, and M-type stars, they still offer a […]

The Radiation Environments of Middle-Aged F-Type Stars
Far ultraviolet (FUV) emission lines from dwarf stars are important driving sources of photochemistry in planetary atmospheres. Properly interpreting spectral features of planetary atmospheres critically depends on the emission of […]
