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…
Origins of Mercury's Big Heart of Iron: Exploring Pathways to Form High Core Mass Fraction (CMF) Planets via N-body Simulations
Haniyeh Tajer, Ji Wang, Anna C. Childs +3
Mercury's core mass fraction (CMF) is ~0.7, more than double that of the other rocky planets in the solar system, which have CMFs of ~0.3. The origin of Mercury's large, iron-rich…
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…
The Yarkovsky effect in REBOUNDx
Noah Ferich, Stanley A. Baronett, Daniel Tamayo +1
To more thoroughly study the effects of radiative forces on the orbits of small, astronomical bodies, we introduce the Yarkovsky effect into REBOUNDx, an extensional library for th…
Stellar Evolution and Tidal Dissipation in REBOUNDx
Stanley A. Baronett, Noah Ferich, Daniel Tamayo +1
To study the post-main sequence evolution of the Solar system and exoplanetary systems more accurately and efficiently, we introduce two new features to REBOUNDx, an extended libra…
