Birth and fate of hot-Neptune planets
I. Baraffe, Y. Alibert, G. Chabrier +1
This paper presents a consistent description of the formation and the subsequent evolution of gaseous planets, with special attention to short-period, low-mass hot-Neptune planets…
Review on low-mass stars and brown dwarfs
G. Chabrier, I. Baraffe, F. Allard +1
In this review, we examine the successes and weaknesses of modern low-mass star and brown dwarf theory.(1) We first focus on the mechanical (equation of state) and thermal (atmosph…
A Hubble Space Telescope ACS Search for Brown Dwarf Binaries in the Pleiades Open Cluster
H. Bouy, E. Moraux, J. Bouvier +5
We present the results of a high-resolution imaging survey for brown dwarf binaries in the Pleiades open cluster. The observations were carried out with the Advance Camera for Surv…
Young, Jupiter-Mass Objects in Ophiuchus
K. N. Allers, D. T. Jaffe, N. S. van der Bliek +2
We have used 3.5 to 8 micron data from the Cores to Disks (c2d) Legacy survey and our own deep IJHKs images of a 0.5 square degree portion of the c2d fields in Ophiuchus to produce…
Hot-Jupiters and hot-Neptunes: a common origin?
I. Baraffe, G. Chabrier, T. S. Barman +3
We compare evolutionary models for close-in exoplanets coupling irradiation and evaporation due respectively to the thermal and high energy flux of the parent star with observation…
Pulsations induced by deuterium-burning in young brown dwarfs
Francesco Palla, Isabelle Baraffe
Very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs can undergo pulsational instability excited by central deuterium burning during the initial phases of their evolution. We present the results o…
