The effect of late giant collisions on the atmospheres of protoplanets and the formation of cold sub-Saturns

Mohamad Ali-Dib, Andrew Cumming, Douglas N. C. Lin

We investigate the origins of cold sub-Saturns (CSS), an exoplanetary population inferred from microlensing surveys. If confirmed, these planets would rebut a theorised gap in plan…

A Solar System formation analogue in the Ophiuchus star-forming complex

John C. Forbes, João Alves, Douglas N. C. Lin

Anomalies among the daughter nuclei of the extinct short-lived radionuclides (SLRs) in the calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) indicate that the Solar System must have been bor…

Orbital migration and circularization of tidal debris by Alfvén-wave drag: circumstellar debris and pollution around white dwarfs

Yun Zhang, Shang-Fei Liu, Douglas N. C. Lin

A significant fraction of white dwarfs (WDs) exhibit signs of ongoing accretion of refractory elements at rates -- kg s, among which, 37 WDs were detected to…

The influence of the secular perturbation of an intermediate-mass companion: II. Ejection of hypervelocity stars from the Galactic Center

Xiaochen Zheng, Douglas N. C. Lin, Shude Mao

There is a population of stars with velocities in excess of 500 km s relative to the Galactic center. Many, perhaps most, of these hyper-velocity stars (HVSs) are B stars, s…

The TESS Objects of Interest Catalog from the TESS Prime Mission

Natalia M. Guerrero, S. Seager, Chelsea X. Huang +102

We present 2,241 exoplanet candidates identified with data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) during its two-year prime mission. We list these candidates in the…

Departure from the Exact Location of Mean Motion Resonances Induced by the Gas Disk in the Systems Observed by Kepler

Su Wang, D. N. C. Lin, Xiaochen Zheng +1

The statistical results of transiting planets show that there are two peaks around 1.5 and 2.0 in the distribution of orbital period ratios. A large number of planet pairs are foun…
