Gaia Exoplanet Orbits, Demographics, and Evolution Survey (GEODES): Characteristics of Three Long-Period Companions Accelerating their Host Stars
Judah Van Zandt, Brendan Bowler, Erik Petigura +12
The upcoming release of DR4 will yield thousands of giant planet candidates, eventually enabling studies of giant planet eccentricities, masses, and occurrence rates across…
One-third of Sun-like stars are born with misaligned planet-forming disks
Lauren I. Biddle, Brendan P. Bowler, Marvin Morgan +2
Exoplanets are organized in a broad array of orbital configurations that reflect their formation along with billions of years of dynamical processing through gravitational interact…
H Variability of AB Aur b with the Hubble Space Telescope: Probing the Nature of a Protoplanet Candidate with Accretion Light Echoes
Brendan P. Bowler, Yifan Zhou, Lauren I. Biddle +11
Giant planets generate accretion luminosity as they form. Much of this energy is radiated in strong H line emission, which has motivated direct imaging surveys at optical wavel…
Evidence for Variable Accretion onto PDS 70 c and Implications for Protoplanet Detections
Yifan Zhou, Brendan P. Bowler, Aniket Sanghi +14
Understanding the processes of planet formation and accretion in young systems is essential to unraveling the initial conditions of planetary systems. The PDS 70 system, which host…
