Physics

Scientific paper

Spin-orbit resonances, where a planet's orbital period is an integer or half-odd integer multiple of its rotation period, can have profound effects on the distribution of insolation over a planet's surface, protecting certain regions from the worst extremes of radiation and temperature. This has implications for the detection and interpretation of thermal emissions from extrasolar planets, as well as for their habitability.
