Stellar Obliquity Excitation via Disk Dispersal-Driven Resonances in Binaries
Yubo Su, Dong Lai
The stellar obliquity of a planetary system is often used to help constrain the system's formation and evolution. One of the mechanisms to reorient the stellar spin involves a secu…
Revisiting the Tertiary-induced Binary Black Hole Mergers: the Role of Superthermal Wide Tertiary Eccentricity Distributions
Yubo Su, Bin Liu, Siyao Xu
Recent studies show that the eccentricity distribution of wide binaries (semimajor axis ) observed by \emph{Gaia} tends to favor large eccentricities more…
High-Eccentricity Migration with Disk-Induced Spin-Orbit Misalignment: a Preference for Perpendicular Hot Jupiters
Michelle Vick, Yubo Su, Dong Lai
High-eccentricity migration is a likely formation mechanism for many observed hot Jupiters, particularly those with a large misalignment between the stellar spin axis and orbital a…
Dynamical Tides in Eccentric Binaries Containing Massive Main-Sequence Stars: Analytical Expressions
Yubo Su, Dong Lai
Tidal evolution of eccentric binary systems containing at least one massive main-sequence (MS) star plays an important role in the formation scenarios of merging compact-object bin…
Dynamics of Colombo's Top: Tidal Dissipation and Resonance Capture, With Applications to Oblique Super-Earths, Ultra-Short-Period Planets and Inspiraling Hot Jupiters
Yubo Su, Dong Lai
We present a comprehensive theoretical study on the spin evolution of a planet under the combined effects of tidal dissipation and gravitational perturbation from an external compa…
