A fresh look into the interaction of exoplanets magnetosphere with stellar winds using MHD simulations

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
Numerous numerical studies have been carried out in recent years that simulate different aspects of exoplanets’ magnetosphere and stellar winds. These studies have focused primarily on hot Jupiters with sun-like stars. This study addresses the challenges

Excitation of planetary inclinations via dynamical bifurcations driven by misaligned disks

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Primordial misalignments between protoplanetary disks and their host stars’ spin axes have been proposed to be important origins of the widespread stellar obliquities observed in exoplanets. Recent works have further revealed nontrivial and rich

Signatures of X-Ray-dominated Chemistry in the Spectra of Exoplanetary Atmospheres

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
High-energy radiation from stars impacts planetary atmospheres, deeply affecting their chemistry and providing departures from chemical equilibrium. While the upper atmospheric layers are dominated by ionizations induced by extreme-ultraviolet radiation,

A Robust Launching Mechanism for Free- floating Planets from Host Stars with Close-in Planets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Secular perturbations from binary stars and distant massive planets can drive cold planets onto nearly parabolic orbits with pericenter passages extremely close to their host stars.

Magnetic star-planet interaction can suppress stellar dynamo

open access: yes, 2021
I present a model of magnetic interaction between planets on close-in orbits and their host stars. It is based on the solution for a stellar -squared dynamo surrounded by a force-free corona and an outer layer consistent with the presence of a Parker stellar wind. This model was obtained analytically and predicts different scenarios. I illustrate how

Disk2Planet: A Robust and Automated Machine Learning Tool for Parameter Inference in Disk–Planet Systems

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We introduce Disk2Planet, a machine-learning-based tool to infer key parameters in disk–planet systems from observed protoplanetary disk structures. Disk2Planet takes as input the disk structures in the form of 2D density and velocity maps, and outputs ...

Astrometry and Precise Radial Velocities Yield a Complete Orbital Solution for the Nearby Eccentric Brown Dwarf LHS 1610 b

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The LHS 1610 system consists of a nearby ( d = 9.7 pc) M5 dwarf hosting a candidate brown dwarf companion in a 10.6 days, eccentric ( e ∼ 0.37) orbit.

Where does the simplified stellar contamination model fail in exoplanet transmission spectroscopy?

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Stellar photospheric heterogeneities (e.g., starspots and faculae) distort the apparent stellar spectrum during a transit and imprint wavelength-dependent biases on the measured planet–to–star radius ratio. This transit light source effect (TLSE) must be
