American astronomers from the University of California in Irvain found that the white dwarves who completed the life cycle could provide living conditions on the outer planets. The study was published scientifically broadcasting Journal of Astrophysics (TAJ).
Leading Aomava Shields, the team used a three-dimensional climatic model to compare the outer planets in the White Dwarf and Kepler-62 star to the sun similar to the sun. Kepler-62 is located in the constellation of Lyra in about 1,200 light years from the ground.
It was revealed that the white dwarf planet protected more heat due to rapid rotation (10 hours against 155 days against 155 days), despite the fewer clouds on the day side. This creates warmer and stable conditions for a potential life.
Schilds said that the livability of white dwarfs is closer to the star that makes the outer planets unique.
Although such planets are likely to be synchronous rotation (one side turns into a star), fast rotations prevent the excessive cooling of the planets of stars such as Kepler-62.
This discovery is expanding the horizons of searching for settled worlds. With the emergence of new tools such as James Webb Space Telescope, scientists will be able to examine the atmosphere of outer planets in white dwarfs that can lead to new discoveries in astrobiology.
Previously, scientists Approved The potential livability of the outer planets closest to the world.
