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…
How Consumption and Repulsion Set Planetary Gap Depths and the Final Masses of Gas Giants
Mickey Rosenthal, Eugene Chiang, Sivan Ginzburg +1
Planets open gaps in discs. Gap opening is typically modeled by considering the planetary Lindblad torque which repels disc gas away from the planet's orbit. But gaps also clear be…
Measuring the Orbital Parameters of Radial Velocity Systems in Mean Motion Resonance---a Case Study of HD 200964
M. M. Rosenthal, W. Jacobson-Galan, B. Nelson +8
The presence of mean motion resonances (MMRs) complicates analysis and fitting of planetary systems observed through the radial velocity (RV) technique. MMR can allow planets to re…
How Flow Isolation May Set the Mass Scale for Super-Earth Planets
M. M. Rosenthal, R. A. Murray-Clay
Much recent work on planet formation has focused on the growth of planets by accretion of grains whose aerodynamic properties make them marginally coupled to the nebular gas, a the…
New Constraints From Dust Lines On The Surface Densities Of Protoplanetary Disks
Diana Powell, Ruth Murray-Clay, Laura M. Pérez +2
We present new determinations of disk surface density, independent of an assumed dust opacity, for a sample of 7 bright, diverse protoplanetary disks using measurements of disk dus…
Restrictions on the Growth of Gas Giant Cores via Pebble Accretion
M. M. Rosenthal, R. A. Murray-Clay
We apply an order-of-magnitude model of gas-assisted growth, known as pebble accretion, in a turbulent medium to suggest a reason why some systems form wide orbital separation gas…
Gas-Assisted Growth of Protoplanets in a Turbulent Medium
M. M. Rosenthal, R. A. Murray-Clay, H. B. Perets +1
Pebble accretion is a promising process for decreasing growth timescales of planetary cores, allowing gas giants to form at wide orbital separations. However, nebular turbulence ca…
