Can a binary star host three giant circumbinary planets?
Cheng Chen, Rebecca G. Martin, C. J. Nixon
We investigate the orbital stability of a tilted circumbinary planetary system with three giant planets. The planets are spaced by a constant number () of mutual Hill radii in t…
Orbital stability of two circumbinary planets around misaligned eccentric binaries
Cheng Chen, Stephen H. Lubow, Rebecca G. Martin +1
With -body simulations we investigate the stability of tilted circumbinary planetary systems consisting of two nonzero mass planets. The planets are initially in circular orbits…
Warping a protoplanetary disc with a planet on an inclined orbit
Rebecca Nealon, Giovanni Dipierro, Richard Alexander +2
Recent observations of several protoplanetary discs have found evidence of departures from flat, circular motion in the inner regions of the disc. One possible explanation for thes…
Planet-disc evolution and the formation of Kozai-Lidov planets
Rebecca G. Martin, Stephen H. Lubow, Chris Nixon +1
With hydrodynamical simulations we determine the conditions under which an initially coplanar planet-disc system that orbits a member of a misaligned binary star evolves to form a…
The Kozai-Lidov Mechanism in Hydrodynamical Disks
Rebecca G. Martin, Chris Nixon, Stephen H. Lubow +4
We use three dimensional hydrodynamical simulations to show that a highly misaligned accretion disk around one component of a binary system can exhibit global Kozai-Lidov cycles, w…
