Calculation of the enrichment of the giant planet envelopes during the "late heavy bombardment"
Alexis Matter, Tristan Guillot, Alessandro Morbidelli
The giant planets of our solar system possess envelopes consisting mainly of hydrogen and helium but are also significantly enriched in heavier elements relatively to our Sun. In o…
Possible detection of phase changes from the non-transiting planet HD 46375b by CoRoT
P. Gaulme, M. Vannier, T. Guillot +19
The present work deals with the detection of phase changes in an exoplanetary system. HD 46375 is a solar analog known to host a non-transiting Saturn-mass exoplanet with a 3.0236…
An analysis of the CoRoT-2 system: A young spotted star and its inflated giant planet
Tristan Guillot, Mathieu Havel
Context: CoRoT-2b is one of the most anomalously large exoplanet known. Given its large mass, its large radius cannot be explained by standard evolution models. Interestingly, the…
Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission. XV. CoRoT-15b: a brown dwarf transiting companion
F. Bouchy, M. Deleuil, T. Guillot +3
We report the discovery by the CoRoT space mission of a transiting brown dwarf orbiting a F7V star with an orbital period of 3.06 days. CoRoT-15b has a radius of 1.12 +0.30 -0.15 R…
Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission XIV. CoRoT-11b: a transiting massive "hot-Jupiter" in a prograde orbit around a rapidly rotating F-type star
D. Gandolfi, G. Hébrard, R. Alonso +52
The CoRoT exoplanet science team announces the discovery of CoRoT-11b, a fairly massive hot-Jupiter transiting a V=12.9 mag F6 dwarf star (M*=1.27 +/- 0.05 Msun, R*=1.37 +/- 0.03 R…
Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission. XI. CoRoT-8b: a hot and dense sub-Saturn around a K1 dwarf
P. Bordé, F. Bouchy, M. Deleuil +47
We report the discovery of CoRoT-8b, a dense small Saturn-class exoplanet that orbits a K1 dwarf in 6.2 days, and we derive its orbital parameters, mass, and radius. We analyzed tw…
