High-Eccentricity Tidal Migration Driven by Secular Chaos in Wide-Binary Systems
Yurou Liu, Hareesh Gautham Bhaskar, Xian-Yu Wang +1
High-eccentricity tidal migration driven by a distant stellar companion offers a natural pathway for producing some hot Jupiters; yet, most theoretical work has relied on an ideali…
Chemistry and Isotope Ratios of Substellar Atmospheres in the Pictoris Young Moving Group and Vicinity
Yurou Liu, Yapeng Zhang, Jerry W. Xuan +7
Measuring the chemical and isotopic compositions of gas giants and brown dwarfs provides insights into their formation pathways and birth environments. 2MASS J0249-0557 c is an L2-…
The Formation of Double Hot Jupiter Systems through von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai Migration
Yurou Liu, Tiger Lu, Malena Rice
The von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai (ZLK) mechanism with tidal friction has been demonstrated as a promising avenue to generate hot Jupiters in stellar binary systems. Previous population s…
Collisional Fragmentation Support in TRACE
Tiger Lu, Haniyeh Tajer, David M. Hernandez +3
We present improved collision support for TRACE, a state-of-the-art hybrid integrator in REBOUND. TRACE now supports collisional fragmentation and can handle both removing and addi…
