K2-19b and c are in a 3:2 Commensurability but out of Resonance: A Challenge to Planet Assembly by Convergent Migration
Erik A. Petigura, John Livingston, Konstantin Batygin +11
K2-19b and c were among the first planets discovered by NASA's K2 mission and together stand in stark contrast with the physical and orbital properties of the solar system planets.…
Aero-Resonant Migration
Natalia I. Storch, Konstantin Batygin
The process of planet conglomeration, which primarily unfolds in a geometrically thin disk of gas and dust, is often accompanied by dynamical excitation of the forming planets and…
Excitation of Planetary Obliquities Through Planet-Disk Interactions
Sarah Millholland, Konstantin Batygin
The tilt of a planet's spin axis off its orbital axis ("obliquity") is a basic physical characteristic that plays a central role in determining the planet's global circulation and…
The role of dissipative evolution for three-planet, near-resonant extrasolar systems
Gabriele Pichierri, Konstantin Batygin, Alessandro Morbidelli
Early dynamical evolution of close-in planetary systems is shaped by an intricate combination of planetary gravitational interactions, orbital migration, and dissipative effects. W…
On the Anomalous Acceleration of 1I/2017 U1 `Oumuamua
Darryl Seligman, Gregory Laughlin, Konstantin Batygin
We show that the photometric period and the astrometrically measured non-gravitational acceleration (at $r\sim1…
The Planet Nine Hypothesis
Konstantin Batygin, Fred C. Adams, Michael E. Brown +1
Over the course of the past two decades, observational surveys have unveiled the intricate orbital structure of the Kuiper Belt, a field of icy bodies orbiting the Sun beyond Neptu…
