The Origin of Systems of Tightly Packed Inner Planets with Misaligned, Ultra-Short-Period Companions
Juliette Becker, Konstantin Batygin, Daniel C. Fabrycky +4
Ultra-short period planets provide a window into the inner edge of the parameter space occupied by planetary orbits. In one particularly intriguing class of multi-planet systems, t…
A Giant Planet Candidate Transiting a White Dwarf
Andrew Vanderburg, Saul A. Rappaport, Siyi Xu +61
Astronomers have discovered thousands of planets outside the solar system, most of which orbit stars that will eventually evolve into red giants and then into white dwarfs. During…
A Coupled Analysis of Atmospheric Mass Loss and Tidal Evolution in XUV Irradiated Exoplanets: the TRAPPIST-1 Case Study
Juliette Becker, Elena Gallo, Edmund Hodges-Kluck +2
Exoplanets residing close to their stars can experience evolution of both their physical structures and their orbits due to the influence of their host stars. In this work, we pres…
TESS spots a hot Jupiter with an inner transiting Neptune
Chelsea X. Huang, Samuel N. Quinn, Andrew Vanderburg +48
Hot Jupiters are rarely accompanied by other planets within a factor of a few in orbital distance. Previously, only two such systems have been found. Here, we report the discovery…
Mutual Inclination Excitation by Stellar Oblateness
Gongjie Li, Fei Dai, Juliette Becker
Ultra-short-period planets (USPs) provide important clues to planetary formation and migration. Recently, it is found that the mutual inclinations of the planetary systems are larg…
Dynamical Classification of Trans-Neptunian Objects Detected by the Dark Energy Survey
T. Khain, J. C. Becker, Hsing Wen Lin +52
The outer Solar System contains a large number of small bodies (known as trans-Neptunian objects or TNOs) that exhibit diverse types of dynamical behavior. The classification of bo…
