Tidal and Magnetic Interactions between a Hot Jupiter and its Host Star in the Magnetospheric Cavity of a Protoplanetary Disk

Shih-Hsin Chang, Pin-Gao Gu, Peter Bodenheimer

We present a simplified model to study the orbital evolution of a young hot Jupiter inside the magnetospheric cavity of a proto-planetary disk. The model takes into account the dis…

Searching for sub-kilometer TNOs using Pan-STARRS video mode lightcurves: Preliminary study and evaluation using engineering data

J. -H. Wang, P. Protopapas, W. -P. Chen +6

We present a pre-survey study of using Pan-STARRS high sampling rate video mode guide star images to search for TNOs. With suitable selection of the guide stars within the Pan-STAR…

Upper Limits on the Number of Small Bodies in Sedna-Like Orbits by the TAOS Project

J. -H. Wang, M. J. Lehner, Z. -W. Zhang +21

We present the results of a search for occultation events by objects at distances between 100 and 1000 AU in lightcurves from the Taiwanese-American Occultation Survey (TAOS). We s…

Migration of Extrasolar Planets: Effects from X-Wind Accretion Disks

Fred C. Adams, Mike J. Cai, Susana Lizano

Magnetic fields are dragged in from the interstellar medium during the gravitational collapse that forms star/disk systems. Consideration of mean field magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) i…

A Search for Occultations of Bright Stars by Small Kuiper Belt Objects using Megacam on the MMT

Federica B. Bianco, Pavlos Protopapas, Brian A. McLeod +3

We conducted a search for occultations of bright stars by Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) to estimate the density of sub-km KBOs in the sky. We report here the first results of this occ…

Diurnal Thermal Tides in a Non-synchronized Hot Jupiter

Pin-Gao Gu, Gordon I. Ogilvie

We perform a linear analysis to investigate the dynamical response of a non-synchronized hot Jupiter to stellar irradiation. In this work, we consider the diurnal Fourier harmonic…
