Discovery of Minor Planet (135)

Discovery and spectroscopy of the young jovian planet 51 Eri b with the Gemini Planet Imager.

Directly detecting thermal emission from young extrasolar planets allows measurement of their atmospheric compositions and luminosities, which are influenced by their formation mechanisms. Using the Gemini Planet Imager, we discovered a planet orbiting the ~20-million-year-old star 51 Eridani at a projected separation of 13 astronomical units. Near-infrared observations show a spectrum with str...

APPENDICES 135 A Selected Topics of Differential Geometry 135

The work can be considered as an essay on mathematical and conceptual structure of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics (QM) which is related here to some other (more general, but also to more special – “approximative”) theories. QM is here primarily equivalently reformulated in the form of a Poisson system on the phase space consisting of density matrices, where the “observables”, as well as “sym...

Dynamical Outcomes of Planet–planet Scattering

Observations in the past decade have revealed extrasolar planets with a wide range of semi-major axes and eccentricities. Based on the present understanding of planet formation via core accretion and oligarchic growth, we expect that giant planets often form in closely packed configurations. While the protoplanets are embedded in a protoplanetary nebula, dissipation prevents eccentricity growth...
