Constraining properties of dust formed in Wolf-Rayet binary WR 112 using mid-infrared and millimeter observations
Donglin Wu, Yinuo Han, Peredur M. Williams +9
Binaries that host a carbon-rich Wolf-Rayet (WC) star and an OB-type companion can be copious dust producers. Yet the properties of dust, particularly the grain size distribution,…
Eccentricity Evolution of Warm Jupiters: The Role of Distant Perturbers and Nearby Companions
Ying He, Dong-Hong Wu, Sheng Jin
Warm Jupiters-giant exoplanets with orbital periods between 10 and 200 days-exhibit a broad range of eccentricities and are often accompanied by nearby low-mass planets. Understand…
The Narrow Formation Pathway of Hot Saturns: Constraints on Initial Planetary Properties
Minghao Xie, Sheng Jin, Dong-Hong Wu
The observed exoplanet population exhibits a scarcity of short-period Saturn-mass planets, a phenomenon referred to as the ``hot Saturn desert". This observational scarcity can be…
Physical Properties and HI-to-H2 Transition Across Taurus Linear Edge
Ningyu Tang, Feihang Miao, Gan Luo +5
Studying the atomic-to-molecular transition is essential for understanding the evolution of interstellar medium. The linear edge of Taurus molecular cloud, clearly identified in th…
The heating efficiency of hot Jupiters from a data-driven perspective
Sheng Jin, Dong-Hong Wu, Yi-Xuan Cao +1
The inflated radii of hot Jupiters have been explored by various theoretical mechanisms. By connecting planetary thermal evolution models with the observed properties of hot Jupite…
Enhanced Stability in Planetary Systems with Similar Masses
Dong-Hong Wu, Sheng Jin, Jason H. Steffen
This study employs numerical simulations to explore the relationship between the dynamical instability of planetary systems and the uniformity of planetary masses within the system…
