Helioseismic inference of the solar radiative opacity
Gaël Buldgen, Jean-Christophe Pain, Philippe Cossé +18
The Sun is the most studied of all stars, and thus constitutes a benchmark for stellar models. However, our vision of the Sun is still incomplete, as illustrated by the current deb…
Assessing the processes behind planet engulfment and its imprints
B. M. T. B. Soares, V. Adibekyan, C. Mordasini +5
Throughout a planetary system's formation evolution, some of the planetary material may end up falling into the host star and be engulfed by it, leading to a potential variation of…
The PLATO Mission
Heike Rauer, Conny Aerts, Juan Cabrera +842
PLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) is ESA's M3 mission designed to detect and characterise extrasolar planets and perform asteroseismic monitoring of a large numb…
Linking the primordial composition of planet building disks to the present-day composition of rocky exoplanets
V. Adibekyan, M. Deal, C. Dorn +16
The composition of rocky planets is strongly driven by the primordial materials in the protoplanetary disk, which can be inferred from the abundances of the host star. Understandin…
