Life is But a Stream: The Distribution of Planetary Systems Along Stellar Streams and their Properties

Jeremy J. Webb, Milica Ivetic, Maxwell X. Cai +2

The majority of discovered exoplanets have been observed orbiting field stars as opposed to within a star cluster. To determine whether the lack of observed exoplanets in star clus…

Oort Cloud Formation and Evolution in Star Clusters

Justine C. Obidowski, Jeremy J. Webb, Simon Portegies Zwart +1

It is unknown if an Oort cloud reaches its maximum mass within its star's birth cluster or millions of years later. Complicating the Oort cloud evolution process is the fact that c…

Hot Jupiter Formation in Dense Star Clusters

Leonard Benkendorff, Francesco Flammini Dotti, Katja Stock +2

Hot Jupiters (HJ) are defined as Jupiter-mass exoplanets orbiting around their host star with an orbital period < 10 days. It is assumed that HJ do not form in-situ but ex-situ. Re…

-Diffusion: A diffusion-based density estimation framework for computational physics

Maxwell X. Cai, Kin Long Kelvin Lee

In physics, density is a fundamentally important scalar function to model, since it describes a scalar field or a probability density function that governs a physical pr…

A hybrid approach for solving the gravitational N-body problem with Artificial Neural Networks

Veronica Saz Ulibarrena, Philipp Horn, Simon Portegies Zwart +3

Simulating the evolution of the gravitational N-body problem becomes extremely computationally expensive as N increases since the problem complexity scales quadratically with the n…

Birth cluster simulations of planetary systems with multiple super-Earths: initial conditions for white dwarf pollution drivers

Katja Stock, Dimitri Veras, Maxwell X. Cai +2

Previous investigations have revealed that eccentric super-Earths represent a class of planets which are particularly effective at transporting minor bodies towards white dwarfs an…
