Stellar magnetic activity – Star-Planet Interactions

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
Stellar magnetic activity is an important factor in the formation and evolution of exoplanets. Magnetic phenomena like stellar flares, coronal mass ejections, and high-energy emission affect the exoplanetary atmosphere and its mass loss over time.

TOI-1859b: A 64 Day Warm Jupiter on an Eccentric and Misaligned Orbit

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Warm Jupiters are close-in giant planets with relatively large planet–star separations (i.e., 10 < a / R _⋆ < 100). Given their weak tidal interactions with their host stars, measurements of stellar obliquity may be used to probe the initial obliquity ...

Planet formation, orbital evolution and planet-star tidal interaction

open access: yes, 1998
We consider several processes operating during the late stages of planet formation that can affect observed orbital elements. Disk-planet interactions, tidal interactions with the central star, long term orbital instability and the Kozai mechanism are discussed.

X-Ray Activity Variations and Coronal Abundances of the Star–Planet Interaction Candidate HD 179949

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We carry out detailed spectral and timing analyses of the Chandra X-ray data of HD 179949, a prototypical example of a star with a close-in giant planet with possible star–planet interaction (SPI) effects. We find a low coronal abundance A (Fe)/ A H) ≈ 0.

Star-planet interactions and dynamical evolution of exoplanetary systems

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
The dynamical evolution of planetary systems, after the evaporation of the accretion disk, is the result of the competition between tidal dissipation and the net angular momentum loss of the system.

Energetics of star–planet magnetic interactions

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Star–planet magnetic interactions (SPMIs) occurring in the sub-Alfvénic regime can, in principle, induce stellar chromospheric hotspots. These hotspots could serve as observational markers for inferring key planetary properties, especially the ...

Wide Binary Orbits Are Preferentially Aligned with the Orbits of Small Planets, but Probably Not Hot Jupiters

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Studying the relative orientations of the orbits of exoplanets and wide-orbiting binary companions (semimajor axis greater than 100 au) can shed light on how planets form and evolve in binary systems. Previous observations by multiple groups discovered a

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Magnetic Effect on the Evolution of an Eccentric and Inclined Orbit

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We provide a method to calculate the evolution of an eccentric and inclined orbit under the magnetic effect. Taking the unipolar interaction as an example, we study both coplanar and inclined orbits. We calculate the Lorentz force and then the changes in
