Chaotic Dynamics of Stellar Spin in Binaries and the Production of Misaligned Hot Jupiters

Natalia I. Storch, Kassandra R. Anderson, Dong Lai

Many exoplanetary systems containing hot Jupiters are observed to have highly misaligned orbital axes relative to the stellar spin axes. Kozai-Lidov oscillations of orbital eccentr…
