Mapping Protoplanetary Disk Vertical Structure with CO Isotopologue Line Emission
Charles J. Law, Richard Teague, Karin I. Öberg +21
High spatial resolution observations of CO isotopologue line emission in protoplanetary disks at mid-inclinations (30-75°) allow us to characterize the gas structure in…
CHES: a space-borne astrometric mission for the detection of habitable planets of the nearby solar-type stars
Jianghui Ji, Haitao Li, Junbo Zhang +19
The Closeby Habitable Exoplanet Survey (CHES) mission is proposed to discover habitable-zone Earth-like planets of the nearby solar-type stars ( away from our…
Nii: a Bayesian orbit retrieval code applied to differential astrometry
Sheng Jin, Xiaojian Ding, Su Wang +2
Here we present an open source Python-based Bayesian orbit retrieval code (Nii) that implements an automatic parallel tempering Markov chain Monte Carlo (APT-MCMC) strategy. Nii pr…
Relative occurrence rates of terrestrial planets orbiting FGK stars
Sheng Jin
This paper aims to derive a map of relative planet occurrence rates that can provide constraints on the overall distribution of terrestrial planets around FGK stars. Based on the p…
New constraints on the dust and gas distribution in the LkCa 15 disk from ALMA
Sheng Jin, Andrea Isella, Pinghui Huang +3
We search a large parameter space of the LkCa 15's disk density profile to fit its observed radial intensity profile of CO (J = 3-2) obtained from ALMA. The best-fit model w…
Compositional imprints in density-distance-time: a rocky composition for close-in low-mass exoplanets from the location of the valley of evaporation
Sheng Jin, Christoph Mordasini
We use an end-to-end model of planet formation, thermodynamic evolution, and atmospheric escape to investigate how the statistical imprints of evaporation depend on the bulk compos…
Terrestrial Planets Formation under Migration: the Systems near 4:2:1 Mean Motion Resonance
Zhao Sun, Jianghui Ji, Su Wang +1
In this work, we extensively investigate the formation of near 4:2:1 mean motion resonances (MMRs) configuration by performing two sets of N-body simulations. We model the eccentri…
Long-Lived Dust Asymmetries at Dead Zone Edges in Protoplanetary Disks
Ryan Miranda, Hui Li, Shengtai Li +1
A number of transition disks exhibit significant azimuthal asymmetries in thermal dust emission. One possible origin for these asymmetries is dust trapping in vortices formed at th…
Modeling Dust Emission of HL Tau Disk Based on Planet-Disk Interactions
Sheng Jin, Shengtai Li, Andrea Isella +2
We use extensive global two-dimensional hydrodynamic disk gas+dust simulations with embedded planets, coupled with three dimensional radiative transfer calculations, to model the d…
Planetary population synthesis coupled with atmospheric escape: a statistical view of evaporation
Sheng Jin, Christoph Mordasini, Vivien Parmentier +3
We apply hydrodynamic evaporation models to different synthetic planet populations that were obtained from a planet formation code based on a core-accretion paradigm. We investigat…
Possible Origin of the Damocloids:the Scattered Disk or a New Region?
Su Wang, Haibin Zhao, Jianghui Ji +5
The Damocloids are a group of unusual asteroids, recently enrolling a new member of 2010 EJ104. The dynamical evolution for the Damocloids may uncover a connection passage from the…
Terrestrial Planet Formation in the Inclined Systems: Application to OGLE-2006-BLG-109L System
Sheng Jin, Jianghui Ji
In this work, we extensively investigate the terrestrial planetary formation for the inclined planetary systems (considering the OGLE-2006-BLG-109L system as prototype) in the late…
Forming Close-in Earth-like Planets via a Collision-Merger Mechanism in Late-stage Planet Formation
Jianghui Ji, Sheng Jin, C. G. Tinney
The large number of exoplanets found to orbit their host stars in very close orbits have significantly advanced our understanding of the planetary formation process. It is now wide…
