Mean Motion Resonances in Exoplanet Systems: An Investigation Into Nodding Behavior
Jacob A. Ketchum, Fred C. Adams, Anthony M. Bloch
Motivated by the large number of extrasolar planetary systems that are near mean motion resonances, this paper explores a related type of dynamical behavior known as "nodding". Her…
Accretion of Rocky Planets by Hot Jupiters
Jacob A. Ketchum, Fred C. Adams, Anthony M. Bloch
The observed population of Hot Jupiters displays a stunning variety of physical properties, including a wide range of densities and core sizes for a given planetary mass. Motivated…
Effects of Turbulence, Eccentricity Damping, and Migration Rate on the Capture of Planets into Mean Motion Resonance
Jacob A. Ketchum, Fred C. Adams, Anthony M. Bloch
Pairs of migrating extrasolar planets often lock into mean motion resonance as they drift inward. This paper studies the convergent migration of giant planets (driven by a circumst…
Orbital Instabilities in a Triaxial Cusp Potential
Fred C. Adams, Anthony M. Bloch, Suzanne C. Butler +2
This paper constructs an analytic form for a triaxial potential that describes the dynamics of a wide variety of astrophysical systems, including the inner portions of dark matter…
