Dependence of Planet Populations on Stellar Mass and Metallicity: A Pebble-accretion-based Planet Population Synthesis Model

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The formation and evolution of planetary systems are linked to their host stellar environment. In this study, we employ a pebble-accretion-based planet population synthesis model to explore the correlation between planetary properties and stellar mass ...

Observations of Exoplanet Atmospheres

open access: yes, 2015
Detailed characterization of an extrasolar planet's atmosphere provides the best hope for distinguishing the makeup of its outer layers, and the only hope for understanding the interplay between initial composition, chemistry, dynamics & circulation, and

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME). XI. An Earth-sized Planet Orbiting a Nearby, Solar-like Host in the 400 Myr Ursa Major Moving Group

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Young terrestrial worlds are critical test beds to constrain prevailing theories of planetary formation and evolution. We present the discovery of HD 63433 d—a nearby (22 pc), Earth-sized planet transiting a young Sun-like star (TOI-1726, HD 63433).

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

open access: yes, 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.

The Architectural Design Rules of Solar Systems based on the New Perspective

open access: yes, 2009
On the basis of the Lunar Laser Ranging Data released by NASA on the Silver Jubilee Celebration of Man Landing on Moon on 21st July 1969-1994, theoretical formulation of Earth-Moon tidal interaction was carried out and Planetary Satellite Dynamics was ...

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.

Transit Photometry as an Exoplanet Discovery Method

open access: yes, 2018
Photometry with the transit method has arguably been the most successful exoplanet discovery method to date. A short overview about the rise of that method to its present status is given.

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
