Collisional Stripping and Disruption of Super-Earths
Robert A. Marcus, Sarah T. Stewart, Dimitar Sasselov +1
The final stage of planet formation is dominated by collisions between planetary embryos. The dynamics of this stage determine the orbital configuration and the mass and compositio…
Numerical Simulations of Wind Accretion in Symbiotic Binaries
M. de Val-Borro, M. Karovska, D. Sasselov
We study the dynamical effects of gravitational focusing by a binary companion on winds from late-type stars. In particular, we investigate the mass transfer and formation of accre…
HAT-P-12b: A Low-Density Sub-Saturn Mass Planet Transiting a Metal-Poor K Dwarf
J. D. Hartman, G. Á. Bakos, G. Torres +18
We report on the discovery of HAT-P-12b, a transiting extrasolar planet orbiting the moderately bright V=12.8 K4 dwarf GSC 03033-00706, with a period P = 3.2130598 +- 0.0000021 d,…
