Dynamical Evolution of White Dwarfs in Triples in the Era of Gaia

Cheyanne Shariat, Smadar Naoz, Bradley M. S. Hansen +3

The mission has detected many white dwarfs (WDs) in binary and triple configurations, and while observations suggest that triple stellar systems are common in our Galaxy, no…

Debris Rings from Extrasolar Irregular Satellites

Kevin T. Hayakawa, Bradley M. S. Hansen

Irregular satellites are the minor bodies found orbiting all four Solar System giant planets, with large semi-major axes, eccentricities, and inclinations. Previous studies have de…

Halting Migration in Magnetospherically Sculpted Protoplanetary Disks

Tze Yeung Mathew Yu, Brad Hansen, Yasuhiro Hasegawa

We present a physically motivated model for the manner in which a stellar magnetic field sculpts the inner edge of a protoplanetary disk, and examine the consequence for the migrat…

Consequences of dynamically unstable moons in extrasolar systems

Bradley M. S. Hansen

Moons orbiting rocky exoplanets in compact orbits about other stars experience an accelerated tidal evolution, and can either merge with their parent planet or reach the limit of d…

When Do Stars Go BOOM?

Harvey B. Richer, Roger E. Cohen, Matteo Correnti +10

The maximum mass of a star that can produce a white dwarf (WD) is an important astrophysical quantity. One of the best approaches to establishing this limit is to search for WDs in…

An Exomoon Survey of 70 Cool Giant Exoplanets and the New Candidate Kepler-1708 b-i

David Kipping, Steve Bryson, Chris Burke +6

Exomoons represent a crucial missing puzzle piece in our efforts to understand extrasolar planetary systems. To address this deficiency, we here describe an exomoon survey of 70 co…
