Gas Giants Formed by Gravitational Instability May Accrete Atmospheres with Super-Stellar Carbon to Oxygen Ratios
Alan P. Boss
Characterizing the atmospheric compositions of exoplanets, along with determining properties such as their mass, mean density, and orbital configuration, is thought to be an effect…
A universal brown dwarf desert formed between planets and stars
Kaiming Cui, Guang-Yao Xiao, Fabo Feng +10
Giant planets and brown dwarfs play a crucial role in star and planet formation, as they are situated at the boundary between planets and stars with uncertain formation mechanisms.…
Searching for Giant Exoplanets around M-dwarf Stars (GEMS) I: Survey Motivation
Shubham Kanodia, Caleb I. Cañas, Suvrath Mahadevan +13
Recent discoveries of transiting giant exoplanets around M-dwarf stars (GEMS), aided by the all-sky coverage of TESS, are starting to stretch theories of planet formation through t…
New Parallaxes and a Convergence Analysis for the TW Hya Association
Jessica K. Donaldson, Alycia J. Weinberger, Jonathan Gagné +3
The TW Hya Association (TWA) is a nearby stellar association with an age of 5-10 Myr. This is an important age for studying the late stages of star and planet formation. We…
Low Mass Companions for Five Solar-Type Stars from the Magellan Planet Search Program
Dante Minniti, R. Paul Butler, Mercedes Lopez-Morales +5
We report low mass companions orbiting five Solar-type stars that have emerged from the Magellan precision Doppler velocity survey, with minimum (Msini) masses ranging from 1.2 to…
When Do Planets Form? A Search for Extra-solar Planets Around Metal-Poor Stars
A. Sozzetti, D. W. Latham, G. Torres +4
We present preliminary results from our spectroscopic search for planets within 1 AU of metal-poor field dwarfs using NASA time with HIRES on Keck I. The core accretion model of ga…
