Orbital Stability of Circumstellar Planets in Binary Systems
Billy Quarles, Gongjie Li, Veselin Kostov +1
Planets that orbit only one of the stars in stellar binary systems (i.e., circumstellar) are dynamically constrained to a limited range of orbital parameters and thus understanding…
Constraining the magnitude of climate extremes from time-varying instellation on a circumbinary terrestrial planet
Jacob Haqq-Misra, Eric T. Wolf, William F. Welsh +3
Planets that revolve around a binary pair of stars are known as circumbinary planets. The orbital motion of the stars around their center of mass causes a periodic variation in the…
Habitable Zone Boundaries for Circumbinary Planets
Wolf Cukier, Ravi kumar Kopparapu, Stephen R. Kane +4
We use a one-dimensional (1-D) cloud-free climate model to estimate habitable zone (HZ) boundaries for terrestrial planets of masses 0.1 M and 5 M around circumbinary s…
Four Small Planets Buried in K2 Systems: What Can We Learn for TESS?
Christina Hedges, Nicholas Saunders, Geert Barentsen +5
The Kepler, K2, and Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) missions have provided a wealth of confirmed exoplanets, benefiting from a huge effort from the planet-hunting and…
A super-Earth and sub-Neptune transiting the late-type M dwarf LP 791-18
Ian J. M. Crossfield, William Waalkes, Elisabeth R. Newton +57
Planets occur most frequently around cool dwarfs, but only a handful of specific examples are known to orbit the latest-type M stars. Using TESS photometry, we report the discovery…
The L 98-59 System: Three Transiting, Terrestrial-Sized Planets Orbiting a Nearby M-dwarf
Veselin B. Kostov, Joshua E. Schlieder, Thomas Barclay +112
We report the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) discovery of three terrestrial-sized planets transiting L 98-59 (TOI-175, TIC 307210830) -- a bright M dwarf at a distanc…
