Exoplanets Bouncing Between Binary Stars

open access: yes, 2012
Exoplanetary systems are found not only among single stars, but also binaries of widely varying parameters. Binaries with separations of 100--1000 au are prevalent in the Solar neighborhood; at these separations planet formation around a binary member ...

Discovery and characterization of WASP-6b, an inflated sub-Jupiter mass planet transiting a solar-type star [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We report the discovery of WASP-6b, an inflated sub-Jupiter mass planet transiting every $ 3.3610060^{\rm + 0.0000022 }_ $ days a mildly metal-poor solar-type star of magnitude V = 11.9. A combined analysis of the WASP photometry, high-precision followup

Copper Nanocrystallization in Anodic Oxide Films of Ti–Cu‐Based Bulk Metallic Glass and Its Effect on the Corrosion Resistance and Cytocompatibility

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Viktoriia Shtefan, Thorgund Nemec, Ute Hempel, Annett Gebert and coworkers demonstrate that anodic treatment of Ti–Cu‐based metallic glass in a nontoxic pyrophosphate electrolyte forms a protective bilayered Ti/Zr‐oxide film enriched with Cu nanocrystals.

Interaction of free-floating planets with a star–planet pair [PDF]

open access: yesCelestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy, 2012
The recent discovery of free-floating planets and their theoretical interpretation as celestial bodies, either condensed independently or ejected from parent stars in tight clusters, introduced an intriguing possibility. Namely, that some exoplanets are not condensed from the protoplanetary disk of their parent star.

Search for a circum-planetary material and orbital period variations of short-period Kepler exoplanet candidates

open access: yes, 2014
A unique short-period Mercury-size Kepler exoplanet candidate KIC012557548b has been discovered recently by Rappaport et al. (2012). This object is a transiting disintegrating exoplanet with a circum-planetary material - comet-like tail.

An Earth-sized Planet on the Verge of Tidal Disruption

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
TOI-6255 b (GJ 4256) is an Earth-sized planet (1.079 ± 0.065 R _⊕ ) with an orbital period of only 5.7 hr. With the newly commissioned Keck Planet Finder and CARMENES spectrographs, we determine the planet’s mass to be 1.44 ± 0.14 M _⊕ .

PPDONet: Deep Operator Networks for Fast Prediction of Steady-state Solutions in Disk–Planet Systems

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We develop a tool, which we name Protoplanetary Disk Operator Network (PPDONet), that can predict the solution of disk–planet interactions in protoplanetary disks in real time.

Direct Metal Deposition of Graphene–Ti28Nb35.4Zr Matrix Composites With Enhanced Mechanical, Corrosion, and Biocompatibility Properties for Bone Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene nanoplatelet (0.1 wt.%) reinforcement significantly enhances the performance of β Ti‐28Nb‐35.4Zr alloy. Grain refinement, reduced water contact angle, and improved surface characteristics promote osteoblast adhesion and complete surface coverage after 7 days.

Capture into Apsidal Resonance and the Decimation of Planets around Inspiraling Binaries

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Transiting circumbinary planets (CBPs) are conspicuously rare and entirely absent around stellar binaries with periods ≤7 days. Here we exploit a secular resonance to stimulate the orbit of a CBP into strong, disruptive interactions with the host binary.

The Spin–Orbit Misalignment of TOI-1842b: The First Measurement of the Rossiter–McLaughlin Effect for a Warm Sub-Saturn around a Massive Star

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The mechanisms responsible for generating spin–orbit misalignments in exoplanetary systems are still not fully understood. It is unclear whether these misalignments are related to the migration of hot Jupiters or are a consequence of general star and ...
