A universal brown dwarf desert formed between planets and stars
Kaiming Cui, Guang-Yao Xiao, Fabo Feng +10
Giant planets and brown dwarfs play a crucial role in star and planet formation, as they are situated at the boundary between planets and stars with uncertain formation mechanisms.…

Formation of Free-Floating Planets via Ejection: Population Synthesis with a Realistic IMF and Comparison to Microlensing Observations
Kangrou Guo, Shigeru Ida, Masahiro Ogihara
Microlensing observations suggest that the mass distribution of free-floating planets (FFPs) follows a declining power-law with increasing mass. The origin of such distribution is…

A Population Synthesis Study on the Formation of Cold Jupiters from Truncated Planetesimal Disks
Kangrou Guo, Masahiro Ogihara, Shigeru Ida +3
The occurrence rate of giant planets increases with orbital period and turns over at a location that roughly corresponds to the snow line of solar-type stars. Further, the density…
