The architecture and formation of the Kepler-30 planetary system [PDF]
We study the orbital architecture, physical characteristics of planets, formation and long-term evolution of the Kepler-30 planetary system, detected and announced in 2012 by the KEPLER team.

MODELING PLANETARY SYSTEM FORMATION WITH N-BODY SIMULATIONS: ROLE OF GAS DISK AND STATISTICS COMPARED TO OBSERVATIONS [PDF]
During the late stage of planet formation, when Mars-sized cores appear, interactions among planetary cores can excite their orbital eccentricities, accelerate their merging, and thus sculpt their final orbital architecture. This study contributes to the

A Review of Possible Planetary Atmospheres in the TRAPPIST-1 System [PDF]
TRAPPIST-1 is a fantastic nearby (∼39.14 light years) planetary system made of at least seven transiting terrestrial-size, terrestrial-mass planets all receiving a moderate amount of irradiation.

On the formation age of the first planetary system [PDF]
AbstractRecently, it has been observed the extreme metal-poor stars in the Galactic halo, which must be formed just after Pop III objects. On the other hand, the first gas clouds of mass ∼ 106 M⊙ are supposed to be formed at z ∼ 10, 20, and 30 for the 1σ, 2σ and 3σ, where the density perturbations are assumed of the standard ΛCDM cosmology.

Architectures of planetary systems and implications for their formation [PDF]
Significance Prior to the discovery of exoplanets, astronomers fine tuned theories of planet formation to explain detailed properties of the solar system. The discovery of exoplanets has significantly increased our appreciation for the diversity of planetary systems in nature. In this article we review the current understanding of the

Solar System Formation in the Context of Extra-Solar Planets [PDF]
Exoplanet surveys have confirmed one of humanity's (and all teenagers') worst fears: we are weird. If our Solar System were observed with present-day Earth technology -- to put our system and exoplanets on the same footing -- Jupiter is the only planet ...

We present the latest and most precise characterization of the architecture for the ancient (≈11 Gyr) Kepler-444 system, which is composed of a K0 primary star (Kepler-444 A) hosting five transiting planets and a tight M-type spectroscopic binary (Kepler-

The formation and subsequent migration of gas giants could significantly affect the material mixing in the solar system. In this study, we use N -body simulations to investigate how much water is transported into the region of the terrestrial planet ...
