Abstract

We use the circumbinary planetary system Kepler-16b as an example to specify some considerations that may be of interest to astrobiologists regarding the dynamic nature of habitable zones around close double star systems.

Keywords

Kepler-16b circumbinary planetary system astrobiology habitable zone close double star system dynamic nature
