Resonant and Ultra-short-period Planet Systems Are at Opposite Ends of the Exoplanet Age Distribution

The Astronomical Journal
Exoplanet systems are thought to evolve on secular timescales over billions of years. This evolution is impossible to directly observe on human timescales in most individual systems.

Synergies between Asteroseismology and Exoplanetary Science

, 2017
Over the past decade asteroseismology has become a powerful method to systematically characterize host stars and dynamical architectures of exoplanet systems.

Peas-in-a-pod across the Radius Valley: Rocky Systems Are Less Uniform in Mass but More Uniform in Size and Spacing

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The ubiquity of “peas-in-a-pod” architectural patterns and the existence of the radius valley each presents a striking population-level trend for planets with R _p ≤ 4 R _⊕ that serves to place powerful constraints on the formation and evolution of these

Saturns, but Not Super-Jupiters, Occur More Frequently in the Presence of Inner Super-Earths

The Astrophysical Journal
Studies from recent years have reached different conclusions regarding how frequently super-Earths are accompanied by long-period giant planets and vice versa. This relation has been predicted to be mass dependent by planet-formation models.

Effects of rotation and magnetic fields on the lithium abundance and asteroseismic properties of exoplanet-host stars

, 2010
Aims: The effects of rotation and magnetic fields on the surface abundances of solar-type stars are studied in order to investigate whether the reported difference in lithium content of exoplanet-host stars can be related to their rotational history ...

Solar System Ice Giants: Exoplanets in our Backyard

, 2018
Future remote sensing of exoplanets will be enhanced by a thorough investigation of our solar system Ice Giants (Neptune-size planets). What can the configuration of the magnetic field tell us (remotely) about the interior, and what implications does that field have for the structure of the magnetosphere; energy input into the atmosphere, and surface ...

Architectures of Exoplanetary Systems. IV. A Multiplanet Model for Reproducing the Radius Valley and Intrasystem Size Similarity of Planets around Kepler’s FGK Dwarfs

The Astrophysical Journal
The Kepler-observed distribution of planet sizes has revealed two distinct patterns: (1) a radius valley separating super-Earths and sub-Neptunes and (2) a preference for intrasystem size similarity.

Kepler Observations of the Three Pre-Launch Exoplanet Candidates: Discover of Two Eclipsing Binaries and a New Exoplanet [PDF]

, 2010
Three transiting exoplanet candidate stars were discovered in a ground-based photometric survey prior to the launch of NASA's Kepler mission. Kepler observations of them were obtained during Quarter 1 of the Kepler mission.

Using near infra-red spectroscopy for characterization of transiting exoplanets

, 2015
We propose a method for observing transiting exoplanets with near-infrared high-resolution spectrometers. We aim to create a robust data analysis method for recovering atmospheric transmission spectra from transiting exoplanets over a wide wavelength ...
