Asteroid flux towards circumprimary habitable zones in binary star systems: II. Dynamics
D. Bancelin, E. Pilat-Lohinger, A. Bazso
Secular and mean motion resonances (MMR) are effective perturbations for shaping planetary systems. In binary star systems, they play a key role during the early and late phases of…
Water delivery in the Early Solar System
Rudolf Dvorak, Siegfried Eggl, Áron Süli +3
As part of the national scientific network 'Pathways to Habitable Worlds' the delivery of water onto terrestrial planets is a key question since water is essential for the developm…
Can there be additional rocky planets in the Habitable Zone of tight binary stars with a known gas giant?
Barbara Funk, Elke Pilat-Lohinger, Siegfried Eggl
Locating planets in HabitableZones (HZs) around other stars is a growing field in contemporary astronomy. Since a large percentage of all G-M stars in the solar neighbourhood are e…
Impact flux of asteroids and water transport to the habitable zone in binary star systems
D. Bancelin, E. Pilat-Lohinger, S. Eggl +1
By now, observations of exoplanets have found more than 50 binary star systems hosting 71 planets. We expect these numbers to increase as more than 70% of the main sequence stars i…
The role of dynamics on the habitability of an Earth-like planet
E. Pilat-Lohinger
From the numerous detected planets outside the Solar system, no terrestrial planet comparable to our Earth has been discovered so far. The search for an Exo-Earth is certainly a bi…
The EChO science case
Giovanna Tinetti, Pierre Drossart, Paul Eccleston +347
The discovery of almost 2000 exoplanets has revealed an unexpectedly diverse planet population. Observations to date have shown that our Solar System is certainly not representativ…
Colliding Winds in Low-Mass Binary Star Systems: wind interactions and implications for habitable planets
C. P. Johnstone, A. Zhilkin, E. Pilat-Lohinger +3
Context. In binary star systems, the winds from the two components impact each other, leading to strong shocks and regions of enhanced density and temperature. Potentially habitabl…
