Constraints on the Spin Evolution of Young Planetary-Mass Companions

Marta L. Bryan, Bjorn Benneke, Heather A. Knutson +2

Surveys of young star-forming regions have discovered a growing population of planetary-mass (<13 M_Jup) companions around young stars. There is an ongoing debate as to whether the…

On the Consequences of the Detection of an Interstellar Asteroid

Gregory Laughlin, Konstantin Batygin

The arrival of the robustly hyperbolic asteroid A/2017 U1 has potentially interesting ramifications for the planet-formation process. Although extrapolations from a sample size of…

A Direct Imaging Survey of Spitzer detected debris disks: Occurrence of giant planets in dusty systems

Tiffany Meshkat, Dimitri Mawet, Marta Bryan +10

We describe a joint high contrast imaging survey for planets at Keck and VLT of the last large sample of debris disks identified by the Spitzer Space Telescope. No new substellar c…

Dynamical Evolution Induced by Planet Nine

Konstantin Batygin, Alessandro Morbidelli

The observational census of trans-Neptunian objects with semi-major axes greater than ~250 AU exhibits unexpected orbital structure that is most readily attributed to gravitational…

A Secular Resonant Origin for the Loneliness of Hot Jupiters

Christopher Spalding, Konstantin Batygin

Despite decades of inquiry, the origin of giant planets residing within a few tenths of an astronomical unit from their host stars remains unclear. Traditionally, these objects are…

Three's Company: An additional non-transiting super-Earth in the bright HD 3167 system, and masses for all three planets

Jessie L. Christiansen, Andrew Vanderburg, Jennifer Burt +55

HD 3167 is a bright (V = 8.9), nearby K0 star observed by the NASA K2 mission (EPIC 220383386), hosting two small, short-period transiting planets. Here we present the results of a…
