Departure from the Exact Location of Mean Motion Resonances Induced by the Gas Disk in the Systems Observed by Kepler
Su Wang, D. N. C. Lin, Xiaochen Zheng +1
The statistical results of transiting planets show that there are two peaks around 1.5 and 2.0 in the distribution of orbital period ratios. A large number of planet pairs are foun…
Haze Formation on Triton
Kazumasa Ohno, Xi Zhang, Ryo Tazaki +1
The largest moon of Neptune, Triton, possess a cold and hazy atmosphere. Since the discovery of near-surface haze layer during the Voyager fly in 1989, the haze formation mechanism…
Carbonate-Silicate Cycle Predictions of Earth-like Planetary Climates and Testing the Habitable Zone Concept
Owen R. Lehmer, David C. Catling, Joshua Krissansen-Totton
In the conventional habitable zone (HZ) concept, a CO-HO greenhouse maintains surface liquid water. Through the water-mediated carbonate-silicate weathering cycle, atmosp…
Hot Stars With Kepler Planets Have High Obliquities
Emma M. Louden, Joshua N. Winn, Erik A. Petigura +5
It has been known for a decade that hot stars with hot Jupiters tend to have high obliquities. Less is known about the degree of spin-orbit alignment for hot stars with other kinds…
A collage of small planets from the Lick Carnegie Exoplanet Survey : Exploring the super-Earth and sub-Neptune mass regime
Jennifer A. Burt, Fabo Feng, Bradford Holden +12
Analysis of new precision radial velocity (RV) measurements from the Lick Automated Planet Finder (APF) and Keck HIRES have yielded the discovery of three new exoplanet candidates…
Radiogenic Heating and its Influence on Rocky Planet Dynamos and Habitability
Francis Nimmo, Joel Primack, Sandra M. Faber +2
The thermal evolution of rocky planets on geological timescales (Gyr) depends on the heat input from the long-lived radiogenic elements potassium, thorium, and uranium. Concentrati…
Transmission spectroscopy for the warm sub-Neptune HD3167c: evidence for molecular absorption and a possible high metallicity atmosphere
Thomas Mikal-Evans, Ian J. M. Crossfield, Bjorn Benneke +26
We present a transmission spectrum for the warm (500-600K) sub-Neptune HD3167c obtained using the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 infrared spectrograph. We combine these…
Accretion of Gas Giants Constrained by the Tidal Barrier
Ya-Ping Li, Yi-Xian Chen, Douglas N. C. Lin +1
After protoplanets have acquired sufficient mass to open partial gaps in their natal protostellar disks, residual gas continues to diffuse onto horseshoe streamlines under effect o…
The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs -- LP 714-47b (TOI 442.01): Populating the Neptune desert
S. Dreizler, I., J. +134
We report the discovery of a Neptune-like planet (LP 714-47 b, P = 4.05204 d, m_b = 30.8 +/- 1.5 M_earth , R_b = 4.7 +/- 0.3 R_earth ) located in the 'hot Neptune desert'. Confirma…
3D simulations of photochemical hazes in the atmosphere of hot Jupiter HD 189733b
Maria E Steinrueck, Adam P. Showman, Panayotis Lavvas +3
Photochemical hazes have been suggested as candidate for the high-altitude aerosols observed in the transmission spectra of many hot Jupiters. We present 3D simulations of the hot…
Direct imaging of sub-Jupiter mass exoplanets with James Webb Space Telescope coronagraphy
Aarynn L. Carter, Sasha Hinkley, Mariangela Bonavita +7
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), currently scheduled to launch in 2021, will dramatically advance our understanding of exoplanetary systems with its ability to directly image…
Beyond Equilibrium Temperature: How the Atmosphere/Interior Connection Affects the Onset of Methane, Ammonia, and Clouds in Warm Transiting Giant Planets
Jonathan J. Fortney, Channon Visscher, Mark S. Marley +5
The atmospheric pressure-temperature profiles for transiting giant planets cross a range of chemical transitions. Here we show that the particular shape of these irradiated profile…
Abundant atmospheric methane from volcanism on terrestrial planets is unlikely and strengthens the case for methane as a biosignature
Nicholas Wogan, Joshua Krissansen-Totton, David C. Catling
The disequilibrium combination of abundant methane and carbon dioxide has been proposed as a promising exoplanet biosignature that is readily detectable with upcoming telescopes su…
Survivor bias: divergent fates of the Solar System's ejected vs. persisting planetesimals
Sean N. Raymond, Nathan A. Kaib, Philip J. Armitage +1
The orbital architecture of the Solar System is thought to have been sculpted by a dynamical instability among the giant planets. During the instability a primordial outer disk of…
Surface Energy of the Titan Aerosol Analog "Tholin"
Xinting Yu, Sarah Horst, Chao He +3
The photochemical haze produced in the upper atmosphere of Titan plays a key role in various atmospheric and surface processes on Titan. The surface energy, one important physical…
Exploring the robustness of Keplerian signals to the removal of active and telluric features
Maksym Lisogorskyi, Hugh R. A. Jones, Fabo Feng +2
We examine the influence of activity- and telluric-induced radial velocity signals on high resolution spectra taken with an iodine absorption cell. We exclude 2 Angstrom spectral c…

Nikole K. Lewis, Hannah R. Wakeford, Ryan J. MacDonald +19
For solar-system objects, ultraviolet spectroscopy has been critical in identifying sources for stratospheric heating and measuring the abundances of a variety of hydrocarbon and s…
The cloudy shape of hot Jupiter thermal phase curves
Vivien Parmentier, Adam P. Showman, Jonathan J. Fortney
Hot Jupiters have been predicted to have a strong day/night temperature contrast and a hot spot shifted eastward of the substellar point. This was confirmed by numerous phase curve…
