Extrasolar Binary Planets II: Detectability by Transit Observations

K. M. Lewis, H. Ochiai, M. Nagasawa +1

We discuss the detectability of gravitationally bounded pairs of gas-giant planets (which we call "binary planets") in extrasolar planetary systems that are formed through orbital…

Formation, Habitability, and Detection of Extrasolar Moons

René Heller, Darren Williams, David Kipping +9

The diversity and quantity of moons in the Solar System suggest a manifold population of natural satellites exist around extrasolar planets. Of peculiar interest from an astrobiolo…

Next Generation of Telescopes or Dynamics Required to Determine if Exo-Moons have Prograde or Retrograde Orbits

Karen M. Lewis, Yuka Fujii

We survey the methods proposed in the literature for detecting moons of extrasolar planets in terms of their ability to distinguish between prograde and retrograde moon orbits, an…

Decoding the message from meteoritic stardust silicon carbide grains

Karen M. Lewis, Maria Lugaro, Brad K. Gibson +1

Micron-sized stardust grains that originated in ancient stars are recovered from meteorites and analysed using high-resolution mass spectrometry. The most widely studied type of st…

The Detectability of Moons of Extra-Solar Planets

Karen M. Lewis

The detectability of moons of extra-solar planets is investigated, focussing on the time-of-arrival perturbation technique, a method for detecting moons of pulsar planets, and the…

The Lupus Transit Survey For Hot Jupiters: Results and Lessons

D. D. R. Bayliss, D. T. F. Weldrake, P. D. Sackett +2

We present the results of a deep, wide-field transit survey targeting Hot Jupiter planets in the Lupus region of the Galactic plane conducted over 53 nights concentrated in two epo…
