Inner Planetary System Gap Complexity is a Predictor of Outer Giant Planets
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 The connection between inner small planets and outer giant planets is crucial to our understanding of planet formation across a wide range of orbital separations. While Kepler provided a plethora of compact multiplanet systems at short separations (≲1 au)

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Mutually misaligned circumbinary planets may form in a warped or broken gas disk or from later planet–planet interactions. With numerical simulations and analytic estimates we explore the dynamics of two circumbinary planets with a large mutual ...

Can Cold Jupiters Sculpt the Edge-of-the-multis?
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Compact systems of multiple close-in super-Earths/sub-Neptunes ( compact multis ) are a ubiquitous outcome of planet formation. It was recently discovered that the outer edges of compact multis are located at smaller orbital periods than expected from ...

High-contrast Imaging around a 2 Myr-old CI Tau with a Close-in Gas Giant
The Astronomical Journal, 2022 Giant planets around young stars serve as a clue to unveiling their formation history and orbital evolution. CI Tau is a 2 Myr-old classical T Tauri star hosting an eccentric hot Jupiter, CI Tau b.

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 JWST secondary eclipse observations of Trappist-1b seemingly disfavor atmospheres >∼1 bar since heat redistribution is expected to yield dayside emission temperature below the ∼500 K observed.

A Gap-sharing Planet Pair Shaping the Crescent in HD 163296: A Disk Sculpted by a Resonant Chain
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The Atacama Large Millimeter Array observations of the disk around HD 163296 have resolved a crescent-shape substructure at around 55 au, inside and off-center from a gap in the dust that extends from 38 to 62 au.

Turbulence in the Magnetospheres of the Outer Planets
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 The magnetospheres of the outer planets exhibit turbulent phenomena in an environment which is qualitatively different compared to the solar wind or the interstellar medium.

இலக்கியங்களில் கோள்களின் இயல்பு / Nature of Planets in Literature [PDF]
International Journal of Tamil Language and Literary Studies, 2022 The study of space objects and matter outside the earth’s atmosphere is called astronomy. Ancestors of Tamil culture undoubtedly had spectacular knowledge about astronomy. It is evident in Tamil literature.

Are There Terrestrial Planets Lurking in the Outer Solar System?
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Motivated by recent measurements of the free-floating-planet mass function at terrestrial masses, we consider the possibility that the solar system may have captured a terrestrial planet early in its history.

Small Planets around Cool Dwarfs: Enhanced Formation Efficiency of Super-Earths around M Dwarfs
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Current measurements of planet population as a function of stellar mass show three seemingly contradictory signatures: close-in super-Earths are more prevalent around M dwarfs than FGK dwarfs; inner super-Earths are correlated with outer giants; and ...
