Architectures of Planetary Systems. III. Excitation of Eccentricities and Inclinations

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The current census of planetary systems displays a wide range of architectures. Extending earlier work, this paper investigates the correlation between our classification framework for these architectures and the distribution of eccentricities and ...

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

open access: yesThe 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

Synergy between asteroseismology and exoplanet science: an outlook [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Space-based asteroseismology has been playing an important role in the characterization of exoplanet-host stars and their planetary systems. The future looks even brighter, with space missions such as NASA's TESS and ESA's PLATO ready to take on this ...

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

open access: yesThe 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.

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

open access: yesThe 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.

Pulsating stars harbouring planets

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Why bother with asteroseismology while studying exoplanets? There are several answers to this question. Asteroseismology and exoplanetary sciences have much in common and the synergy between the two opens up new aspects in both fields.

Terrestrial Exoplanet Internal Structure Constraints Enabled by Comprehensive Host Star Characterization Reveal That Terrestrial Planets in Mean Motion Resonances Are Water Rich

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Exoplanet mass and radius inferences fundamentally rely on host star mass and radius inferences. Despite the importance of host star mass, radius, and elemental abundance inferences for the derivation of exoplanet internal structure constraints ...

Insight into the Formation of β Pic b through the Composition of Its Parent Protoplanetary Disk as Revealed by the β Pic Moving Group Member HD 181327

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
It has been suggested that β Pic b has a supersolar metallicity and subsolar C/O ratio. Assuming solar carbon and oxygen abundances for the star β Pic and therefore the planet’s parent protoplanetary disk, β Pic b’s C/O ratio suggests that it formed via ...
