Correlations between the Carbon-to-Oxygen Ratio and the Orbital and Physical Properties of Exoplanets
Noah Ferich, Robert Royer, Cody Shakespeare +1
Studies suggest that protoplanetary disks around stars with high carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratios can produce terrestrial planets with carbon-dominated compositions instead of silicon…
Modeling Carbon-Based Planets with MAGRATHEA
Robert Royer, David R. Rice, Jason H. Steffen
A planet's interior structure not only influences its habitability, but it also provides information about the planet's formation and history. In the quest to characterize the vari…
Magrathea v2: A planetary interior modeling platform in C++
David R. Rice, Chenliang Huang, Robert Royer +5
Magrathea is an open-source C++ code for modeling the internal structure of differentiated planets. The initial release, Huang et al. (2022), introduced the base solver, a modular…
Effect of Galactic Chemical Evolution on Exoplanet Properties
Jason H. Steffen, Cody Shakespeare, Robert Royer +2
We couple a simplified model for the galactic chemical evolution, with software that models the condensation of dust in protoplanetary disks and software that models the interior s…
Comparing the Architectures of Multiplanet Systems from Kepler, K2, and TESS Data
Robert Royer, Jason H. Steffen
Exoplanet surveys like Kepler, TESS, and K2 have shown that planetary systems are common in our galaxy. These surveys, along with several others, have identified thousands of plane…
Uncertainties in the Inference of Internal Structure: The Case of TRAPPIST-1 f
David R. Rice, Chenliang Huang, Jason H. Steffen +1
We use the TRAPPIST-1 system as a model observation of Earth-like planets. The densities of these planets being 1-10% less than the Earth suggest that the outer planets may host si…
Enhanced Stability in Planetary Systems with Similar Masses
Dong-Hong Wu, Sheng Jin, Jason H. Steffen
This study employs numerical simulations to explore the relationship between the dynamical instability of planetary systems and the uniformity of planetary masses within the system…
The effects of the carbon-to-oxygen ratio on the condensate compositions around Solar-like stars
Cody J. Shakespeare, Min Li, Shichun Huang +2
The initial stellar carbon-to-oxygen (C/O) ratio can have a large impact on the resulting condensed species present in the protoplanetary disk and, hence, the composition of the bo…
Composition Tracking for Collisions Between Differentiated Bodies in REBOUND
Noah Ferich, Anna C. Childs, Jason H. Steffen
Previous research suggests that impacts between planetary embryos and planetesimals during the late stages of planet formation can often determine the percentages of core and mantl…
