TESS Photometry and Radial Velocity Analysis of the sub-Neptune Exoplanet π Mensae c and the Wider π Mensae Planetary System
Skylar S. Larsen, Jake D. Turner, Nikole K. Lewis +10
Exoplanet characterization relies on precise measurements of planetary orbital and physical parameters. This is particularly important for planetary dynamics and atmospheric evolut…
Bridging Roche Lobe Overflow and micro-TDEs: The Runaway Evolution of Eccentric Mass Transfer in Star-Black Hole Binaries
Tian-Shun Chen, Dong Lai
Binary systems may undergo mass transfer while maintaining significant orbital eccentricities. Stellar-mass black holes (sBHs) can strip stars on eccentric orbits and produce micro…
Spin and Obliquity Distributions of Low-mass Planets Shaped by Dynamical Instability
Dieran Wang, Jiaru Li, Dong Lai
Exoplanetary systems hosting multiple low-mass planets are thought to have experienced dynamical instability, during which planet-planet collisions and mergers occur; these collisi…
Magnetically Driven Retrograde Precession in Misaligned Black Hole Accretion Flows
Hong-Xuan Jiang, Yosuke Mizuno, Dong Lai +2
Observations of accreting black hole (BH) systems, such as microquasars and supermassive black holes, often reveal a precessing jet with changing directions, indicating a misaligne…
Binary Stars Approaching Supermassive Black Holes: Hydrodynamics of Stellar Collisions, Mass Fallback and Partial TDEs
Fangyuan Yu, Dong Lai
When binaries are injected into low-angular-momentum orbits around a central supermassive black hole (SMBH), various outcomes can occur, including binary tidal breakup, double stel…
Binary Stars Approaching Supermassive Black Holes: Tidal Break-up, Double Stellar Disruptions and Stellar Collision
Fangyuan Yu, Dong Lai
In galactic centers, stars and binaries can be injected into low-angular-momentum orbits, resulting in close encounters with the central supermassive black hole (SMBH). Previous wo…
Free-Floating Planets, Survivor Planets, Captured Planets and Binary Planets from Stellar Flybys
Fangyuan Yu, Dong Lai
In star clusters, close stellar encounters can strongly impact the architecture of a planetary system or even destroy it. We present a systematic study on the effects of stellar fl…
