Ross 458c: Gas Giant or Brown Dwarf?

William W. Meynardie, Michael R. Meyer, Ryan J. MacDonald +10

Ross 458c is a widely separated planetary mass companion at a distance of 1100 AU from its host binary, Ross 458AB. It is a member of a class of very low-mass companions at distanc…

Identification of carbon dioxide in an exoplanet atmosphere

The JWST Transiting Exoplanet Community Early Release Science Team, Eva-Maria Ahrer, Lili Alderson +129

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a key chemical species that is found in a wide range of planetary atmospheres. In the context of exoplanets, CO2 is an indicator of the metal enrichment (i.…

Spin Dynamics of Extrasolar Giant Planets in Planet-Planet Scattering

Yu-Cian Hong, Dong Lai, Jonathan I. Lunine +1

Planet-planet scattering best explains the eccentricity distribution of extrasolar giant planets. Past literature showed that the orbits of planets evolve due to planet-planet scat…

Innocent Bystanders: Orbital Dynamics of Exomoons during Planet-Planet Scattering

Yu-Cian Hong, Sean N. Raymond, Philip D. Nicholson +1

Planet-planet scattering is the leading mechanism to explain the broad eccentricity distribution of observed giant exoplanets. Here we study the orbital stability of primordial gia…

Orbital instability of close-in exomoons in non-coplanar systems

Yu-Cian Hong, Matthew S. Tiscareno, Philip D. Nicholson +1

This work shows the dynamical instability that can happen to close-in satellites when planet oblateness is not accounted for in non-coplanar multiplanet systems. Simulations includ…
