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…
The Transiting Exoplanet Community Early Release Science Program for JWST
Jacob L. Bean, Kevin B. Stevenson, Natalie M. Batalha +99
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) presents the opportunity to transform our understanding of planets and the origins of life by revealing the atmospheric compositions, structur…
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…
