A Giant Planet Undergoing Extreme-Ultraviolet Irradiation By Its Hot Massive-Star Host [PDF]

, 2017
The amount of ultraviolet irradiation and ablation experienced by a planet depends strongly on the temperature of its host star. Of the thousands of extrasolar planets now known, only six have been found that transit hot, A-type stars (with temperatures ...

Discovery of a dormant 33 solar-mass black hole in pre-release Gaia astrometry [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Gravitational waves from black-hole (BH) merging events have revealed a population of extra-galactic BHs residing in short-period binaries with masses that are higher than expected based on most stellar evolution models -- and also higher than known ...

PERICLES: A Set of Empirical Rotational Isochrones Modeled on Cool Dwarfs in Open Clusters and Wide Binaries

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Isochrones, equal‐age curves, are widely used in astrophysics to estimate stellar ages. Classical stellar parameters are, however, very limited in their usability for main sequence stars because of their weak age‐dependence. Here, rotation period measurements provide complementary information.

Elemental ratios in stars vs planets

, 2015
Context. The chemical composition of planets is an important constraint for planet formation and subsequent differentiation. While theoretical studies try to derive the compositions of planets from planet formation models in order to link the composition

Confirmation of a Non‐Transiting Planet in the Habitable Zone of the Nearby M Dwarf L 98‐59

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Only 40 exoplanetary systems with five or more planets are currently known. These systems are crucial for our understanding of planet formation and planet‐planet interaction. The M dwarf L 98‐59 has previously been found to show evidence of five planets, three of which are transiting.

Commissioning an Inexpensive Off‐The‐Shelf Spectrograph for Radial‐Velocity Studies

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present a way to set up an inexpensive out of the shelf spectrograph at a local observatory. Stability and resolution of the spectrograph are high enough for radial velocity determination of binary stars or determination of stellar characteristics. Even some exoplanets might be detectable via the radial velocity method.

Planet Populations as a Function of Stellar Properties

, 2018
Exoplanets around different types of stars provide a window into the diverse environments in which planets form. This chapter describes the observed relations between exoplanet populations and stellar properties and how they connect to planet formation ...
