Singles in Disguise: Kepler's Low-SNR Single-Transiting Systems as Incompletely Detected Multis
Daniel A. Yahalomi, David Nesvorny, David Kipping +2
NASA's Kepler mission found more systems with one transiting planet (``singles'') than expected from those with several (``multis''). This excess was first taken as evidence for a…
ExoMOD II. A Statistical Model of Transit Timing Variations in Kepler Multi-Planet Systems
David Nesvorny, Daniel A. Yahalomi, David Kipping +2
In Paper I (Nesvorný et al. 2026), we forward modeled transit observations of the Kepler telescope to characterize the orbital properties of close-in planetary systems. The new pop…
ExoMOD I. A Forward Model for the Orbital Architecture of Kepler Multi-Planet Systems
David Nesvorny, Daniel A. Yahalomi, David Kipping +1
Transit observations only detect planets with favorable, near edge-on orientation of orbits as seen by a distant observer, which leaves much freedom for various interpretations in…
Not So Fast Kepler-1513: A Perturbing Planetary Interloper in the Exomoon Corridor
Daniel A. Yahalomi, David Kipping, David Nesvorný +9
Transit Timing Variations (TTVs) can be induced by a range of physical phenomena, including planet-planet interactions, planet-moon interactions, and stellar activity. Recent work…
Comets and Planetesimal Formation
Jacob B. Simon, Jürgen Blum, Til Birnstiel +1
In this chapter, we review the processes involved in the formation of planetesimals and comets. We will start with a description of the physics of dust grain growth and how this is…
The Transition from the Kuiper Belt to the Jupiter-Family (Comets)
Wesley C. Fraser, Luke Dones, Kathryn Volk +2
Kuiper Belt Objects, or more generally Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs), are planetesimals found beyond the orbit of Neptune. Some TNOs evolve onto Neptune-crossing orbits and become…
Trapping (sub-)Neptunes similar to TOI-216b at the inner disk rim: Implications for the disk viscosity and the Neptunian desert
Ondřej Chrenko, Raúl O. Chametla, David Nesvorný +1
[Abridged] The occurrence rate of observed sub-Neptunes has a break at 0.1 au, which is often attributed to a migration trap at the inner rim of protoplanetary disks where a positi…
Multiple-Planet Scattering and the Origin of Hot Jupiters
C. Beauge, D. Nesvorny
Exoplanets show a pile-up of Jupiter-size planets in orbits with a 3-day period. A fraction of these hot Jupiters have retrograde orbits with respect to the parent star's rotation.…
