Birth environment of circumbinary planets: are there circumbinary planets on inclined orbits? [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 ABSTRACT The distribution of the orbital inclination angles of circumbinary planets (CBPs) is an important scientific issue, and it is of great significance for estimating the occurrence rate of CBPs and studying their formation and evolution.

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Mutually misaligned circumbinary planets may form in a warped or broken gas disk or from later planet–planet interactions. With numerical simulations and analytic estimates we explore the dynamics of two circumbinary planets with a large mutual ...

Formation of Polar Terrestrial Circumbinary Planets [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2021 Abstract All circumbinary planets (CBPs) currently detected are in orbits that are almost coplanar to the binary orbit. While misaligned CBPs are more difficult to detect, observations of polar-aligned circumbinary gas and debris disks around eccentric binaries suggest that polar planet formation may be possible.

Orbital dynamics of circumbinary planets [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 ABSTRACT We investigate the dynamics of a non-zero mass, circular orbit planet around an eccentric orbit binary for various values of the binary eccentricity, binary mass fraction, planet mass, and planet semimajor axis by means of numerical simulations.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Some evolved binaries, namely post–asymptotic giant branch (AGB) binaries, are surrounded by stable and massive circumbinary disks similar to protoplanetary disks found around young stars. Around 10% of these disks are transition disks: they have a large

Hunting for Cold Exoplanets via Microlensing
Comptes Rendus. Physique, 2023 Microlensing can detect planets at distances ranging from a few hundred parsecs all the way to the Galactic center. The maximum sensitivity is reached for systems that are located half way to the galactic center, with planets orbiting the lens star at a ...

Circumbinary Planets and the SOLARIS Project [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011 AbstractExtrasolar planets in binary and multiple star systems have become a noticeable niche with about 50 planets among over 500 known. Here we however focus on a particular subset of exoplanets in binary star systems — circumbinary planets. They have the unique advantage that a search for circumbinary planets does also significantly contribute to ...

Frame-Dragging in Extrasolar Circumbinary Planetary Systems
Universe, 2022 Extrasolar circumbinary planets are so called because they orbit two stars instead of just one; to date, an increasing number of such planets have been discovered with a variety of techniques.
