Spin-orbit alignment of exoplanet systems: ensemble analysis using asteroseismology
T. L. Campante, M. N. Lund, J. S. Kuszlewicz +23
The angle between a planet's orbital axis and the spin axis of its parent star is an important diagnostic of planet formation, migration, and tidal evolution. We seek empirical…
An ancient extrasolar system with five sub-Earth-size planets
T. L. Campante, T. Barclay, J. J. Swift +38
The chemical composition of stars hosting small exoplanets (with radii less than four Earth radii) appears to be more diverse than that of gas-giant hosts, which tend to be metal-r…
Asteroseismic determination of obliquities of the exoplanet systems Kepler-50 and Kepler-65
W. J. Chaplin, R. Sanchis-Ojeda, T. L. Campante +26
Results on the obliquity of exoplanet host stars -- the angle between the stellar spin axis and the planetary orbital axis -- provide important diagnostic information for theories…
Kepler-36: A Pair of Planets with Neighboring Orbits and Dissimilar Densities
Joshua A. Carter, Eric Agol, William J. Chaplin +43
In the Solar system the planets' compositions vary with orbital distance, with rocky planets in close orbits and lower-density gas giants in wider orbits. The detection of close-in…
