The Sensitivity of Eclipse Mapping to Planetary Rotation
The Astronomical Journal, 2022 Mapping exoplanets across phases and during secondary eclipse is a powerful technique for characterizing Hot Jupiters in emission. Since these planets are expected to rotate about axes normal to their orbital planes, with rotation periods synchronized ...

Homogeneous statistical distributions of exoplanets over their dynamic parameters [PDF]
Cosmic Research, 2010 Correct distributions of extrasolar systems for their orbital parameters (semi-major axes, period, eccentricity) and physical characteristics (mass, spectral type of parent star) are received. Orbital resonances in extrasolar systems are considered. It is shown, that the account of more thin effects, including with use of wavelet methods, in obviously ...

TOI-1136 is a Young, Coplanar, Aligned Planetary System in a Pristine Resonant Chain
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Convergent disk migration has long been suspected to be responsible for forming planetary systems with a chain of mean-motion resonances (MMRs). Dynamical evolution over time could disrupt the delicate resonant configuration. We present TOI-1136, a 700 ±

Emergent Exoplanet Flux: Review of the Spitzer Results [PDF]
, 2008 Observations using the Spitzer Space Telescope provided the first detections of photons from extrasolar planets. Spitzer observations are allowing us to infer the temperature structure, composition, and dynamics of exoplanet atmospheres.

On the orbital stability of exoplanet satellites
Publications of the Pulkovo_Observatory, 2022 By calculating the Lyapunov characteristic exponents, an analysis was made of the stability of the secular orbital dynamics of satellites for a number of exoplanets in which the presence of an exomoon is possible.

Atmospheric dynamics of a near tidally locked Earth-sized planet [PDF]
Nature Astronomy, 2022 The discovery and characterization of Earth-sized planets that are in, or near, a tidally locked state are of crucial importance to understanding terrestrial planet evolution. For this purpose Venus is a clear analogue.

Dynamical Evolution of Closely Packed Multiple Planetary Systems Subject to Atmospheric Mass Loss
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 A gap in exoplanets’ radius distribution has been widely attributed to the photoevaporation threshold of their progenitors’ gaseous envelope. Giant impacts can also lead to substantial mass loss.

Mergers prompted by dynamics in compact, multiple-star systems: a stellar-reduction case for the massive triple TIC 470710327 [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2022 TIC 470710327, a massive compact hierarchical triple-star system, was recently identified by NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). TIC 470710327 is comprised of a compact (1.10 d) circular eclipsing binary, with total mass $\approx 10.9 ...
