ANALYSIS OF TERRESTRIAL PLANET FORMATION BY THE GRAND TACK MODEL: SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE AND TACK LOCATION [PDF]
, 2016 The Grand Tack model of terrestrial planet formation has emerged in recent years as the premier scenario used to account for several observed features of the inner solar system.

TERRESTRIAL PLANET OCCURRENCE RATES FOR THE KEPLER GK DWARF SAMPLE [PDF]
, 2015 We measure planet occurrence rates using the planet candidates discovered by the Q1-Q16 Kepler pipeline search. This study examines planet occurrence rates for the Kepler GK dwarf target sample for planet radii, 0.75 ≤ ?> R p ?> ≤ ?> 2.5 R ⨁ ?> , and ...

Terrestrial Planet Formation: Constraining the Formation of Mercury [PDF]
, 2017 How the four terrestrial planets of the solar system formed is one of the most fundamental questions in the planetary sciences. Particularly, the formation of Mercury remains poorly understood.

TERRESTRIAL PLANET FORMATION FROM AN ANNULUS [PDF]
, 2016 It has been shown that some aspects of the terrestrial planets can be explained, particularly the Earth/Mars mass ratio, when they form from a truncated disk with an outer edge near 1.0 au.

The interiors of the terrestrial planets
Journal of Geophysical Research, 1965 Conclusions regarding the internal constitution of the terrestrial planets are dependent on the assumption as to the nature of the earth's core. It has previously been supposed that if the terrestrial planets, Earth, Venus, and Mars, are of similar composition the material of the core must represent a phase change, but if the core material is ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We model the early stages of planet formation in the solar system, including continual planetesimal formation, and planetesimal and pebble accretion onto planetary embryos in an evolving disk driven by a disk wind.

Terrestrial Planet Formation: Dynamical Shake-up and the Low Mass of Mars [PDF]
, 2017 We consider a dynamical shake-up model to explain the low mass of Mars and the lack of planets in the asteroid belt. In our scenario, a secular resonance with Jupiter sweeps through the inner solar system as the solar nebula depletes, pitting resonant ...

Long Term Evolution of Planetary Systems with a Terrestrial Planet and a Giant Planet [PDF]
, 2016 We study the long term orbital evolution of a terrestrial planet under the gravitational perturbations of a giant planet. In particular, we are interested in situations where the two planets are in the same plane and are relatively close. We examine both

TOI-1695 b: A Water World Orbiting an Early-M Dwarf in the Planet Radius Valley
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Characterizing the bulk compositions of transiting exoplanets within the M dwarf radius valley offers a unique means to establish whether the radius valley emerges from an atmospheric mass-loss process or is imprinted by planet formation itself.
