Three-dimensional Orbital Architectures and Detectability of Adjacent Companions to Hot Jupiters
The orbital properties of the (as yet) small population of hot Jupiters with nearby planetary companions provide valuable constraints on the past migration processes of these systems.

Evidence for a Peak at ∼0.3 in the Eccentricity Distribution of Typical Super-Jovian Exoplanets
In this study, we compute completeness-corrected occurrence rates of giant exoplanets as a function of mass, semimajor axis, and eccentricity, using the approximately uniform California Legacy Survey sample of radial velocity-discovered planets published

Free Floating or Merely Detached?
Microlensing surveys suggest the presence of a surprisingly large population of free-floating planets, with a rate of about two Neptunes per star.

A Comprehensive Analysis of Spitzer 4.5 μm Phase Curves of Hot Jupiters
Although exoplanetary science was not initially projected to be a substantial part of the Spitzer mission, its exoplanet observations set the stage for current and future surveys with JWST and Ariel.

Inhomogeneous cloud formation and wavelength-dependent phenomena are expected to shape hot Jupiter atmospheres. We present a general circulation model with multiwavelength “picket fence” radiative transfer and radiatively active, temperature-dependent ...

Dynamics of Small Solar System Bodies and Exoplanets [PDF]
The Gaia space mission to be operated in early 2012 by the European Space Agency (ESA), will make a huge step in our knowledge of the Sun's neighbor-hood, up to the Magellanic clouds. Somewhat closer, Gaia will also provide ma jor improvements in the science of asteroids, and more generally to our Solar System, either directly or indirectly.

The GPI Exoplanet Survey II: Atmospheres and Orbits of Substellar Companions to Young and Nearby Stars [PDF]
The Gemini Planet Imager Exoplanet Survey (GPIES) is a 600-star survey for young Jovian-mass exoplanets at Solar System scales. To date, GPIES has imaged six exoplanets and four brown dwarfs and has developed the data reduction tools necessary to ...

Eccentricity Evolution of Warm Jupiters: The Role of Distant Perturbers and nearby Companions
Warm Jupiters (WJs)—giant exoplanets with orbital periods between 10 and 200 days—exhibit a broad range of eccentricities and are often accompanied by nearby low-mass planets.

Multi-Scale Dynamics, Control, and Simulation of Granular Spacecraft [PDF]
In this paper, we present some ideas regarding the modeling, dynamics and control aspects of granular spacecraft. Granular spacecraft are complex multibody systems composed of a spatially disordered distribution of a large number of elements, for ...
