Microlensing Results Challenge the Core Accretion Runaway Growth Scenario for Gas Giants
Daisuke Suzuki, David P. Bennett, Shigeru Ida +14
We compare the planet-to-star mass-ratio distribution measured by gravitational microlensing to core accretion theory predictions from population synthesis models. The core accreti…
Secondary eclipses of WASP-18b -- Near Infrared observations with the Anglo Australian Telescope, the Magellan Clay Telescope and the LCOGT network
L. Kedziora-Chudczer, G. Zhou, J. Bailey +6
We present new eclipse observations for one of the hottest "hot Jupiters" WASP-18b, for which previously published data from HST WFC3 and Spitzer have led to radically conflicting…
Probing the cross-power of unresolved cosmic infrared and X-ray backgrounds with upcoming space missions
A. Kashlinsky, R. G. Arendt, N. Cappelluti +4
The source-subtracted cosmic infrared background (CIB) fluctuations uncovered in deep Spitzer data cannot be explained by known galaxy populations and appear strongly coherent with…
Observational evidence of magnetic reconnection in the terrestrial bow shock transition region
Shan Wang, Li-Jen Chen, Naoki Bessho +7
We report evidence of magnetic reconnection in the transition region of the terrestrial bow shock when the angle between the shock normal and the immediate upstream magnetic field…
The true nature of Swift J0746.3-1608: a possible Intermediate Polar showing accretion state changes
F. Bernardini, D. de Martino, K. Mukai +1
Optical and X-ray observations suggested that the 9.38 h binary, SWIFT J0746.3- 1608 could be a Cataclysmic Variable of the magnetic or nova-like type, or a low mass X-ray binary.…
Isochronal age-mass discrepancy of young stars: SCExAO/CHARIS integral field spectroscopy of the HIP 79124 triple system
Ruben Asensio-Torres, Thayne Currie, Markus Janson +24
We present SCExAO/CHARIS 1.1--2.4 micron integral field direct spectroscopy of the young HIP 79124 triple system. HIP 79124 is a member of the Scorpius-Centaurus association, consi…
