Origins of eccentric extrasolar planets: testing the planet-planet scattering model

EB Ford, FA Rasio - The Astrophysical Journal, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
In planetary systems with two or more giant planets, dynamical instabilities can lead to
collisions or ejections through strong planet-planet scattering. Previous studies for initial …

JA Johnson, RP Butler, GW Marcy… - The Astrophysical …, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
We report precise Doppler measurements of GJ 317 (M3. 5 V) that reveal the presence of a
planet with a minimum mass MP sin i= 1.2 M Jup in an eccentric, 692.9 day orbit. GJ 317 is …

Prospects for the characterization and confirmation of transiting exoplanets via the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect

BS Gaudi, JN Winn - The Astrophysical Journal, 2007 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract The Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM) effect is the distortion of stellar spectral lines that
occurs during eclipses or transits, due to stellar rotation. We assess the future prospects for …
