Elemental ratios in stars vs planets

open access: yes, 2015
Context. The chemical composition of planets is an important constraint for planet formation and subsequent differentiation. While theoretical studies try to derive the compositions of planets from planet formation models in order to link the composition

On the Love Numbers of an Andrade Planet

open access: yesEarth and Space Science
The Andrade rheological model is often employed to describe the response of solar system or extra‐solar planets to tidal perturbations, especially when their properties are still poorly constrained.

Disruption of Planetary System Architectures by Stellar Flybys

open access: yesUniverse
We investigate the survivability of solar system-like planetary systems during close encounters in stellar associations using a suite of 1980 N-body simulations.

Long range outward migration of giant planets, with application to Fomalhaut b

open access: yes, 2009
Recent observations of exoplanets by direct imaging, reveal that giant planets orbit at a few dozens to more than a hundred of AU from their central star.

Terrestrial planets across space and time

open access: yes, 2016
The study of cosmology, galaxy formation and exoplanets has now advanced to a stage where a cosmic inventory of terrestrial planets may be attempted. By coupling semi-analytic models of galaxy formation to a recipe that relates the occurrence of planets ...

Extrasolar planet population synthesis IV. Correlations with disk metallicity, mass and lifetime

open access: yes, 2012
Context. This is the fourth paper in a series showing the results of planet population synthesis calculations. Aims. Our goal in this paper is to systematically study the effects of important disk properties, namely disk metallicity, mass and lifetime ...

On High-Contrast Characterization of Nearby, Short-Period Exoplanets with Giant Segmented-Mirror Telescopes

open access: yes, 2013
Measurements of the frequency with which short-period planets occur around main sequence stars allows a direct prediction of the number and types of such planets that will be amenable to characterization by high-contrast instruments on future giant ...

Modeling Planetary System Formation with N-Body Simulations: Role of Gas Disk and Statistics Comparing to Observations

open access: yes, 2011
During the late stage of planet formation when Mars-size cores appear, interactions among planetary cores can excite their orbital eccentricities, speed their merges and thus sculpture the final architecture of planet systems.

Organic Molecules in the Icy Bodies of Planetary Systems – Accepted Notions and New Ideas

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2018
Cometary bodies are acknowledged to contain some of the most pristine matter in the Solar System, including ices and minerals. Certain number of previously unidentified spectral emission features detected in comets can be explained as emission by ...
