The universality of the rapid neutron-capture process revealed by a possible disrupted dwarf galaxy star
Andrew R. Casey, Kevin C. Schlaufman
The rapid neutron-capture process or r-process is thought to produce the majority of the heavy elements (Z > 30) in extremely metal-poor stars. The same process is also responsible…
Constraints on the Obliquities of Kepler Planet-Hosting Stars
Joshua N. Winn, Erik A. Petigura, Timothy D. Morton +8
Stars with hot Jupiters have obliquities ranging from 0-180 degrees, but relatively little is known about the obliquities of stars with smaller planets. Using data from the Califor…
Absence of a metallicity effect for ultra-short-period planets
Joshua N. Winn, Roberto Sanchis-Ojeda, Leslie Rogers +7
Ultra-short-period (USP) planets are a newly recognized class of planets with periods shorter than one day and radii smaller than about 2 Earth radii. It has been proposed that USP…
