Early planet formation as a trigger for further planet formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Recent discoveries of extrasolar planets at small orbital radii, or with significant eccentricities, indicate that interactions between massive planets and the disks of gas and dust from which they formed are vital for determining the final shape of ...

A Planetary Mass Companion to the K0 Giant HD 17092 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We report the discovery of a substellar-mass companion to the K0-giant HD 17092 with the Hobby-Eberly Telescope. In the absence of any correlation of the observed 360-day periodicity with the standard indicators of stellar activity, the observed radial ...

Planetary mass limits using Hipparcos astrometry [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 2004
Using Hipparcos and Tycho-2 data, together with the radial velocity information, a statistical analysis is applied to all the orbital solutions of planetary candidates, in order to avoid a bias towards small inclinations. There are hints of additional, longer period companions.

Giant Planet Companion to 2MASSW J1207334-393254

open access: yes, 2005
We report new VLT/NACO imaging observations of the young, nearby brown dwarf 2MASSW J1207334-393254 and its suggested planetary mass companion (2M1207 b).

Multi-Planet Destabilisation and Escape in Post-Main Sequence Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Discoveries of exoplanets orbiting evolved stars motivate critical examinations of the dynamics of $N$-body systems with mass loss. Multi-planet evolved systems are particularly complex because of the mutual interactions between the planets.

Factors Affecting the Radii of Close-in Transiting Exoplanets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The radius of an exoplanet may be affected by various factors, including irradiation, planet mass and heavy element content. A significant number of transiting exoplanets have now been discovered for which the mass, radius, semi-major axis, host star ...

Obliquity Constraints on an Extrasolar Planetary-mass Companion [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2020
Abstract We place the first constraints on the obliquity of a planetary-mass companion outside of the solar system. Our target is the directly imaged system 2MASS J01225093–2439505 (2M0122), which consists of a 120 Myr 0.4 M ⊙ star hosting a 12–27 M J companion at 50 au.

Impact of Changing Stellar and Planetary Magnetic Fields on (Exo)planetary Environments and Atmospheric Mass Loss

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The magnetic activity of a star—which modulates the stellar wind outflow—shapes the immediate environments of orbiting (exo)planets and induces atmospheric loss, thereby impacting their habitability.

Dust Settling and Rapid Planetary Migration

open access: yes, 2010
Planetary migration is essential to explain the observed mass-period relation for exoplanets. Without some stopping mechanism, the tidal, resonant interaction between planets and their gaseous disc generally causes the planets to migrate inward so ...

Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search. VII. Complete Sample of q < 10−4 Planets from the First 4 yr Survey

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present the analysis of seven microlensing planetary events with planet/host mass ratios q < 10 ^−4 : KMT-2017-BLG-1194, KMT-2017-BLG-0428, KMT-2019-BLG-1806, KMT-2017-BLG-1003, KMT-2019-BLG-1367, OGLE-2017-BLG-1806, and KMT-2016-BLG-1105.
