Magnetic field of gas giant exoplanets and its influence on the retention of their exomoons

Xing Wei, D. N. C. Lin

We study the magnetic and tidal interactions of a gas-giant exoplanet with its host star and with its exomoons, and focus on their retention. We briefly revisit the scaling law for…

3D Global Simulations of Accretion onto Gap-opening Planets: Implications for Circumplanetary Disc Structures and Accretion Rates

Ya-Ping Li, Yi-Xian Chen, Douglas N. C. Lin

We perform a series of 3D simulations to study the accretion of giant planet embedded in protoplanetary discs (PPDs) over gap-opening timescales. We find that the accretion mass fl…

The impermanent fate of massive stars in AGN disks

Mohamad Ali-Dib, Douglas N. C. Lin

Stars are likely to form or to be captured in AGN disks. Their mass reaches an equilibrium when their rate of accretion is balanced by that of wind. If the exchanged gas is well mi…

Metal Enrichment due to Embedded Stars in AGN Discs

Jiamu Huang, Douglas N. C. Lin, Gregory Shields

We separately assess elemental abundances in AGNs' broad and narrow emission line regions (BLR and NLR), based on a critical assessment of published results together with new photo…

Stellar/BH Population in AGN Disks: Direct Binary Formation from Capture Objects in Nuclei Clusters

Yihan Wang, Zhaohuan Zhu, Douglas N. C. Lin

The Active Galatic Nuclei(AGN) disk has been proposed as a potential channel for the merger of binary black holes. The population of massive stars and black holes in AGN disks capt…

A massive hot Jupiter orbiting a metal-rich early-M star discovered in the TESS full frame images

Tianjun Gan, Charles Cadieux, Farbod Jahandar +41

Observations and statistical studies have shown that giant planets are rare around M dwarfs compared with Sun-like stars. The formation mechanism of these extreme systems remains u…
