Interstellar planetesimals: potential seeds for planet formation?

Amaya Moro-Martín, Colin Norman

We investigate the trapping of interstellar objects during the early stages of star and planet formation. Our results show a very wide range of possible values that will be narrowe…

Astro2020 APT White Paper: "Mind the gap": a call to redesign astronomy graduate education

Amaya Moro-Martín

About one fifth of Ph.D's across all STEM disciplines secure a tenure track position in academia. It is also the case that science and engineering have evolved significantly and so…

Could 1I/'Oumuamua be an icy fractal aggregate?

Amaya Moro-Martín

1I/'Oumuamua is the first interstellar interloper to be detected, and it shows a non-gravitational acceleration that cannot be accounted for by outgassing, given the strict upper l…

Origin of 1I/'Oumuamua. II. An ejected exo-Oort cloud object?

Amaya Moro-Martín

1I/'Oumuamua is the first detected interstellar interloper. We test the hypothesis that it is representative of a background population of exo-Oort cloud objects ejected under the…

Origin of 1I/'Oumuamua. I. An ejected protoplanetary disk object?

Amaya Moro-Martín

1I/'Oumuamua is the first interstellar interloper to have been detected. Because planetesimal formation and ejection of predominantly icy objects are common by-products of the star…

A Substellar Companion to Pleiades HII 3441

Mihoko Konishi, Taro Matsuo, Kodai Yamamoto +55

We find a new substellar companion to the Pleiades member star, Pleiades HII 3441, using the Subaru telescope with adaptive optics. The discovery is made as part of the high-contra…
