One of the scenarios used to explain the dipper phenomenon in stars is having the innermost disk regions being close to the line of sight to the star - inclined greater than 60 deg…
Uniform Metallicity Measurements of M Dwarf Planet Hosts Support Metallicity-Dependent Sub-Neptune Formation
Emma V. Turtelboom, Steven Giacalone, Rebecca Gore +6
M dwarfs are the most common sites of planet formation in the Milky Way. Planet occurrence and composition are closely linked with the availability of metals in protoplanetary disk…
