The ominous fate of exomoons around hot Jupiters in the high-eccentricity migration scenario

Alessandro A. Trani, Adrian S. Hamers, Aaron Geller +1

All the giant planets in the solar system host a large number of natural satellites. Moons in extrasolar systems are difficult to detect, but a Neptune-sized exomoon candidate has…

Merger rate density of Population III binary black holes below, above, and in the pair-instability mass gap

Ataru Tanikawa, Hajime Susa, Takashi Yoshida +2

We present the merger rate density of Population (Pop.) III binary black holes (BHs) by means of a widely-used binary population synthesis code BSE with extensions to very massive…

Binary black holes in young star clusters: the impact of metallicity

Ugo N. Di Carlo, Michela Mapelli, Nicola Giacobbo +9

Young star clusters are the most common birth-place of massive stars and are dynamically active environments. Here, we study the formation of black holes (BHs) and binary black hol…

Chaos and Lévy Flights in the Three-Body Problem

Viraj Manwadkar, Alessandro A. Trani, Nathan W. C. Leigh

We study chaos and Lévy flights in the general gravitational three-body problem. We introduce new metrics to characterize the time evolution and final lifetime distributions, namel…

LHS 1815b: The First Thick-Disk Planet Detected By TESS

Tianjun Gan, Avi Shporer, John H. Livingston +35

We report the first discovery of a thick-disk planet, LHS 1815b (TOI-704b, TIC 260004324), detected in the TESS survey. LHS 1815b transits a bright (V = 12.19 mag, K = 7.99 mag) an…
