Exterior Companions to Hot Jupiters Orbiting Cool Stars are Coplanar
Juliette C. Becker, Andrew Vanderburg, Fred C. Adams +2
The existence of hot Jupiters has challenged theories of planetary formation since the first extrasolar planets were detected. Giant planets are generally believed to form far from…
Precise Masses in the WASP-47 System
Andrew Vanderburg, Juliette C. Becker, Lars A. Buchhave +32
We present precise radial velocity observations of WASP-47, a star known to host a hot Jupiter, a distant Jovian companion, and, uniquely, two additional transiting planets in shor…
Evaluating the Dynamical Stability of Outer Solar System Objects in the Presence of Planet Nine
Juliette Becker, Fred Adams, Tali Khain +2
We evaluate the dynamical stability of a selection of outer solar system objects in the presence of the proposed new Solar System member Planet Nine. We use a Monte Carlo suite of…
Discovery and Physical Characterization of a Large Scattered Disk Object at 92 AU
David Gerdes, Masao Sako, Stephanie Hamilton +65
We report the observation and physical characterization of the possible dwarf planet \UZ\ ("DeeDee"), a dynamically detached trans-Neptunian object discovered at 92 AU. This object…
Effects of Unseen Additional Planetary Perturbers on Compact Extrasolar Planetary Systems
Juliette C. Becker, Fred C. Adams
Motivated by the large number of compact extrasolar planetary systems discovered by the Kepler Mission, this paper considers perturbations due to possible additional outer planets.…
