How eccentric orbital solutions can hide planetary systems in 2:1 resonant orbits
Guillem Anglada-Escude, Mercedes Lopez-Morales, John E. Chambers
The Doppler technique measures the reflex radial motion of a star induced by the presence of companions and is the most successful method to detect exoplanets. If several planets a…
N-body integrators for planets in binary star systems
John E. Chambers
Symplectic integrators are the tool of choice for many researchers studying dynamical systems because of their good long-term energy conservation properties. For systems with a dom…
The instability of planetary systems in binaries: how the Kozai mechanism leads to strong planet-planet interactions
Daniel Malmberg, Melvyn B. Davies, John E. Chambers
In this letter we consider the evolution of a planetary system around a star inside a wide binary. We simulate numerically the evolution of the planetary orbits for both co-planar…
Terrestrial Planet Formation Around Individual Stars Within Binary Star Systems
Elisa V. Quintana, Fred C. Adams, Jack J. Lissauer +1
We calculate herein the late stages of terrestrial planet accumulation around a solar type star that has a binary companion with semimajor axis larger than the terrestrial planet r…
A Dynamical Analysis of the 47 UMa Planetary System
Gregory Laughlin, John Chambers, Debra Fischer
The mass and period ratios of the two planets orbiting 47 UMa suggest a possible kinship to the Jupiter-Saturn pair in our solar system. We explore the current dynamical state of t…
Extrasolar Trojans: The Viability and Detectability of Planets in the 1:1 Resonance
Gregory Laughlin, John Chambers
We explore the possibility that extrasolar planets might be found in the 1:1 mean-motion resonance. There are a variety of stable co-orbtial configurations, and we specifically exa…
