Hot Jupiters are asynchronous rotators
Marek Wazny, Kristen Menou
Hot Jupiters are typically assumed to be synchronously rotating, from tidal locking. Their thermally-driven atmospheric winds experience Lorentz drag on the planetary magnetic fiel…
Confirmation of the radial velocity super-Earth K2-18c with HARPS and CARMENES
R. Cloutier, N. Astudillo-Defru, R. Doyon +13
In an earlier campaign to characterize the mass of the transiting temperate super-Earth K2-18b with HARPS, a second, non-transiting planet was posited to exist in the system at $\s…
Characterization of the K2-18 multi-planetary system with HARPS: A habitable zone super-Earth and discovery of a second, warm super-Earth on a non-coplanar orbit
R. Cloutier, N. Astudillo-Defru, R. Doyon +16
The bright M dwarf K2-18 at 34 pc is known to host a transiting super-Earth-sized planet orbiting within the star's habitable zone; K2-18b. Given the superlative nature of this sys…
On the origin of episodic accretion in Dwarf Novae
Charles F. Gammie, Kristen Menou
We show that dwarf nova disks in quiescence have rather low magnetic Reynolds number, of order 10^3. Numerical simulations of magnetized accretion disks suggest that under these co…
