Comparison between Extrasolar Planets and Low-mass Secondaries
This paper compares the statistical features of the sample of discovered extrasolar planets with those of the secondaries in nearby spectroscopic binaries, in order to enable us to distinguish between the two populations. Based on 32 planet candidates discovered until March 2000, we find that their eccentricity and period distribution are surprisingly similar to those of the binary population, ...
متن کاملDisk eccentricity and embedded planets
Aims. We investigate the response of an accretion disk to the presence of a perturbing protoplanet embedded in the disk through time dependent hydrodynamical simulations. Methods. The disk is treated as a two-dimensional viscous fluid and the planet is kept on a fixed orbit. We run a set of simulations varying the planet mass, and the viscosity and temperature of the disk. All runs are followed...
متن کاملEccentricity Evolution for Planets in Gaseous Disks
At least several percent of solar type stars possess giant planets. Surprisingly, most move on orbits of substantial eccentricity. We investigate the hypothesis that interactions between a giant planet and the disk from which it forms promote eccentricity growth. These interactions are concentrated at discrete Lindblad and corotation resonances. Interactions at principal Lindblad resonances cau...
متن کاملEccentricity Evolution of Resonant Migrating Planets
We examine the eccentricity evolution of a system of two planets locked in a mean motion resonance, in which the outer planet loses energy and angular momentum. The sink of energy and angular momentum could be either a gas or planetesimal disk. We show that the eccentricity of both planetary bodies can grow to large values, particularly if the inner body does not directly exchange energy or ang...
متن کاملStability and eccentricity of periodic orbits for two planets in a 1:1 resonance
The nonlinear stability domain of Lagrange’s celebrated 1772 solution of a three-body problem is obtained numerically as a function of the masses of the bodies and the common eccentricity of their Keplerian orbits. This domain shows that this solution may be realized in extra-solar planetary systems similar to those that have been discovered recently with two Jupiter-size planets orbiting a sol...
