Planet-star interactions with precise transit timing. V. Tidal decay of hot Jupiters through wave breaking
J. Golonka, G. Maciejewski
Tidal interactions shape the evolution of close-in giant planets and internal gravity-wave breaking offers an efficient pathway for dynamical-tide dissipation, although its populat…

Detection of periodic transit timing variations in warm sub-Saturn HD 332231 b
Gracjan Maciejewski
Transit timing variations (TTVs) provide a powerful means to detect and characterise additional bodies in known planetary systems, even when they do not transit their host stars. W…

Planet-star interactions with precise transit timing. IV. Probing the regime of dynamical tides for GK host stars
G. Maciejewski, J. Golonka, M. Fernandez +3
Statistical studies show that stars of GK spectral types, with masses below 1.1 Sun mass, are depleted in hot Jupiters. This finding is evidence of tidal orbital decay during the m…
