Stellar magnetic activity – Star-Planet Interactions [PDF]

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.

The birth environment of planetary systems [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2020
Star and planet formation are inextricably linked. In the earliest phases of the collapse of a protostar, a disc forms around the young star and such discs are observed for the first several million years of a star’s life.

ROME. III. The Arecibo Search for Star–Planet Interactions at 5 GHz

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
After nearly three decades of discovery, many exoplanetary systems have been studied and characterized in detail with one important exception: exoplanet magnetism.

GJ 357 d: Potentially Habitable World or Agent of Chaos?

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Multiplanet systems provide important laboratories for exploring dynamical interactions within the range of known exoplanetary system architectures. One such system is GJ 357, consisting of a low-mass host star and three orbiting planets, the outermost ...

Interactions of exoplanets with their environment

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Physique, 2023
Exoplanets on close-in orbit are subject to intense interactions with their host star. They receive a strong irradiation from the star, trigger tides within their host, and stars and close-in planets can be magnetically connected.

Planetary Parameters, XUV Environments, and Mass-loss Rates for Nearby Gaseous Planets with X-Ray-detected Host Stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We leverage Gaia DR2 parallactic distances to deliver new or revised estimates of planetary parameters and X-ray irradiation for a distance-limited (≲100 pc) sample of 27 gaseous planets (from super-Earths to hot Jupiters) with publicly available Chandra

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 ...

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 ...
