Oblique rings from migrating exomoons: A possible origin for long-period exoplanets with enlarged radii

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
Context. The extremely low density of several long-period exoplanets in mature systems is still unexplained - with HIP 41378 f being archetypical of this category. It has been proposed that such planets could actually have normal densities but be surrounded by a ring observed approximately face on, mimicking the transit depth of a puffy planet.

Characterization of exoplanet hosts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Spectroscopic analysis of exoplanet hosts and the stellar sample from which they are drawn provides abundances and other properties that quantitively constrain models of planet formation.

An Exoplanet in orbit around Tau^1 Gruis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We report the detection of a new candidate exoplanet around the metal-rich star τ1 Gruis. With M sin i= 1.26 ± 0.18 MJup , a period of 1391 ± 300 d and an orbit with an eccentricity of 0.14 ± 0.14 it adds to the growing population of long-period ...

Evidence for Low-level Dynamical Excitation in Near-resonant Exoplanet Systems

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The geometries of near-resonant planetary systems offer a relatively pristine window into the initial conditions of exoplanet systems. Given that near-resonant systems have likely experienced minimal dynamical disruptions, the spin–orbit orientations of ...

Hot Jupiters Have Giant Companions: Evidence for Coplanar High-eccentricity Migration

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
This study considers the characteristics of planetary systems with giant planets based on a population-level analysis of the California Legacy Survey planet catalog. We identified three characteristics common to hot Jupiters (HJs).

Planetary migration and the origin of the 2:1 and 3:2 (near)-resonant population of close-in exoplanets [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2017
We present an analytical and numerical study of the orbital migration and resonance capture of fictitious two-planet systems with masses in the super-Earth range undergoing Type-I migration. We find that, depending on the flare index and proximity to the central star, the average value of the period ratio, $P_2/P_1$, between both planets may show a ...

Orbital Migration of Protoplanets in a Marginally Gravitationally Unstable Disk. II. Migration, Merging, and Ejection

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Protoplanets formed in a marginally gravitationally unstable (MGU) disk by either core accretion or disk instability will be subject to dynamical interactions with massive spiral arms, possibly resulting in inward or outward orbital migration, mergers ...

The Transiting Exoplanet Community Early Release Science Program for JWST [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) presents the opportunity to transform our understanding of planets and the origins of life by revealing the atmospheric compositions, structures, and dynamics of transiting exoplanets in unprecedented detail. However,
