Implications of the TTV-detection of close-in terrestrial planets around M stars for their origin and dynamical evolution

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2011
It has been shown that an Earth-size planet or a super-Earth, in resonance with a transiting Jupiter-like body around an M star, can create detectable TTV signals (Kirste & Haghighipour, 2011).

Terrestrial planet and asteroid belt formation by Jupiter–Saturn chaotic excitation [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The terrestrial planets formed by accretion of asteroid-like objects within the inner solar system’s protoplanetary disk. Previous works have found that forming a small-mass Mars requires the disk to contain little mass beyond ~ 1.5 au (i.e., the disk ...

Stability of terrestrial planets in the habitable zone of Gl 777 A, HD 72659, Gl 614, 47 Uma and HD 4208 [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2004
We have undertaken a thorough dynamical investigation of five extrasolar planetary systems using extensive numerical experiments. The systems Gl 777 A, HD 72659, Gl 614, 47 Uma and HD 4208 were examined concerning the question of whether they could host ...

Terrestrial planet formation surrounding close binary stars [PDF]

open access: green, 2006
Disk material has been observed around both components of some young close binary star systems. It has been shown that if planets form at the right places within such disks, they can remain dynamically stable for very long times.

Non-Thermal Nitric Oxide Formation in the Earth’s Polar Atmosphere

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Auroral events are the prominent manifestation of solar/stellar forcing on planetary atmospheres because they are closely related to the stellar energy deposition by and evolution of planetary atmospheres.

Takeout and Delivery: Erasing the Dusty Signature of Late-stage Terrestrial Planet Formation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The formation of planets like Earth is expected to conclude with a series of late-stage giant impacts that generate warm dusty debris, the most anticipated visible signpost of terrestrial planet formation in progress.

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 ...

The Kinetic Monte Carlo Model of the Auroral Electron Precipitation into N2-O2 Planetary Atmospheres

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Auroral events are the prominent manifestation of solar/stellar forcing on planetary atmospheres. They are closely related to the energy deposition by and evolution of planetary atmospheres, and their observations are widely used to analyze the ...
