Geometrical and Physical Properties of Circumbinary Discs in Eccentric Stellar Binaries [PDF]
In a previous work (Pichardo et al. 2005), we studied stable configurations for circumstellar discs in eccentric binary systems. We searched for "invariant loops": closed curves (analogous to stable periodic orbits in time-independent potentials) that ...

Orbital dynamics of circumbinary planets [PDF]
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.

Orbital evolution of a circumbinary planet in a gaseous disk
Sub-Jupiter classed circumbinary planets discovered in close-in binary systems have orbits just beyond the dynamically unstable region, which is determined by the eccentricity and mass ratio of the host binary stars.

Circumbinary Planets and the SOLARIS Project [PDF]
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 ...

Circumbinary Planets Orbiting the Rapidly Pulsating Subdwarf B-type binary NY Vir [PDF]
We report here the tentative discovery of a Jovian planet in orbit around the rapidly pulsating subdwarf B-type (sdB-type) eclipsing binary NY Vir. By using new determined eclipse times together with those collected from the literature, we detect that ...

The paper deals with a modification of the restricted three‐body problem in which the angular velocity variation is considered in the case where the primaries are sources of radiation. In particular, the existence and stability of its equilibrium points in the plane of motion of the primaries are studied. We find that this problem admits the well‐known

Dusty Blue Supergiants: News from High‐Angular Resolution Observations
An overview is presented of the recent advances in understanding the B[e] phenomenon among blue supergiant stars in light of high‐angular resolution observations and with an emphasis on the results obtained by means of long baseline optical stellar interferometry.

Identifying Transiting Circumbinary Planets [PDF]
AbstractTransiting planets manifest themselves by a periodic dimming of their host star by a fixed amount. On the other hand, light curves of transiting circumbinary (CB) planets are expected to be neither periodic nor to have a single depth while in transit, making the Box-Least-Squares (BLS) transit detection method almost ineffective.

Low spin-axis variations of circumbinary planets
ABSTRACT Having a massive moon has been considered as a primary mechanism for stabilized planetary obliquity, an example of which being our Earth. This is, however, not always consistent with the exoplanetary cases. This article details the discovery of an alternative mechanism, namely that planets orbiting around binary stars tend to ...

Near-infrared Accretion Signatures from the Circumbinary Planetary-mass Companion Delorme 1 (AB)b
Accretion signatures from bound brown dwarf and protoplanetary companions provide evidence for ongoing planet formation, and accreting substellar objects have enabled new avenues to study the astrophysical mechanisms controlling the formation and ...
