Radial Distribution of Distant Trans-Neptunian Objects Points to Sun's Formation in a Stellar Cluster
David Nesvorny, Pedro Bernardinelli, David Vokrouhlicky +1
The Scattered Disk Objects (SDOs) are a population of trans-Neptunian bodies with semimajor axes au and perihelion distances au. The detached S…
Dissipative Capture of Planets Into First-Order Mean-Motion Resonances
Konstantin Batygin, Antoine C. Petit
The emergence of orbital resonances among planets is a natural consequence of the early dynamical evolution of planetary systems. While it is well-established that convergent migra…
Detecting exomoons from radial velocity measurements of self-luminous planets: application to observations of HR 7672 B and future prospects
Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Katelyn Horstman, Dimitri Mawet +36
The detection of satellites around extrasolar planets, so called exomoons, remains a largely unexplored territory. In this work, we study the potential of detecting these elusive o…
A 2:1 Mean-Motion Resonance Super-Jovian pair revealed by TESS, FEROS, and HARPS
Vladimir Bozhilov, Desislava Antonova, Melissa J. Hobson +24
We report the discovery of a super-Jovian 2:1 mean-motion resonance (MMR) pair around the G-type star TIC 279401253, whose dynamical architecture is a prospective benchmark for pla…
Formation of Rocky Super-Earths From A Narrow Ring of Planetesimals
Konstantin Batygin, Alessandro Morbidelli
The formation of super-Earths, the most abundant planets in the Galaxy, remains elusive. These planets have masses that typically exceed that of the Earth by a factor of a few; app…
A Criterion for the Stability of Planets in Chains of Resonances
Max Goldberg, Konstantin Batygin, Alessandro Morbidelli
Uncovering the formation process that reproduces the distinct properties of compact super-Earth exoplanet systems is a major goal of planet formation theory. The most successful mo…
