Can the planets of red and brown dwarfs maintain lifeforms?


 



Can the planets of red and brown dwarfs maintain lifeforms?


This is one of the most interesting questions in the history of science, and one of the answers is that the life form, what might be on those planets would be formed in there and they would be adapted to the conditions of the surface of those planets. Red dwarfs are every time so-called flare stars, and there are massive eruptions, what would burn the surface of the planets, what is at the habitable zone. 


But the thing is that there is a possibility that the lifeforms on those planets are different than the lifeforms on our planet. One of the possibilities is the lifeforms are a little bit like some worms, which are pulling their tentacles in when the eruption of the star starts. Or another version would be the alga-type lifeform, what cells would split so fast that the flare of the star would not burn them all. 


In some simulations, the lifeforms would not be active most of the time. That means that the planet would be away from the habitable zone, and when the flare eruption happens the lifeforms would be active a couple of hours, and then go back to hypothermic sleep until the next eruption will start. That kind of lifeform could be some kind of diatoms or bacterial alga. 


The thing is that the term "lifeforms" are not the same as "intelligent lifeforms". So the worms and other kinds of animals can live at the other planets even in our solar system. But the intelligent lifeforms would be a more unusual case. The chance to find the lifeform at the extrasolar planet is always interesting. 


If there is a possibility to find the lifeform from Proxima Centauri B, that can cause the situation that we should re-estimate our models of the lifeforms and possibility to find them. If Proxima B has some kind of lifeforms the similar lifeforms can also be found from the planets of other red and brown dwarfs. 


There is a model that the brown dwarfs or red dwarfs, what are orbiting each other, would have a planet, where are the lifeforms, what is active only when both of those stars are shining to their ice-cold planet. And maybe the active period of some other creatures is limited only the time of flare eruptions. That is one model of the primitive lifeforms that are exciting and interesting, and what can be found also from other dwarf stars.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies.

The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material.
