Detecting industrial pollution in the atmospheres of earth-like exoplanets
Lin, Gonzalez Abad and Loeb model whether hypothetical industrial pollutants could be detected in an exoplanet atmosphere. Their exposure forecasts are conditional and supply no detected pollution or civilization.

How we check sources
Not checked yet
- No observed polluted exoplanet, calibrated false-positive result, original model inputs, code, raw data, current instrument validation, cited bodies or journal rendition was reviewed. Natural methane and nitrous oxide sources, spectral overlap, nonlinear approximation and photon-only noise limit the forecast. Integrated exposure is not elapsed observing time.
- A printed equation coefficient raises an unresolved dimensional question; no model repair or replication was performed. Work-level NSF and Harvard support leaves individual recipients unspecified. Historical Oxford/ESA model development does not establish Loeb government tasking or access.
