TL;DR: The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) as discussed by the authors will search for planets transiting bright and nearby stars using four wide-field optical charge-coupled device cameras to monitor at least 200,000 main-sequence dwarf stars.
Journal ArticleDOI
The minimum-mass extrasolar nebula: in situ formation of close-in super-Earths
Eugene Chiang,Gregory Laughlin +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors constructed the minimum-mass extrasolar nebula (MMEN), the circumstellar disk of solar-composition solids and gas from which such planets formed, if they formed near their current locations and did not migrate.
Journal ArticleDOI
A ~7.5 M⊕ Planet Orbiting the Nearby Star, GJ 876*

TL;DR: In this paper, a third planet was found orbiting the nearby dM4 star GJ 876 and the residuals of three-body Newtonian fits showed significant power at a periodicity of 1.9379 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Core Accretion Model Predicts Few Jovian-Mass Planets Orbiting Red Dwarfs
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present theoretical calculations that show that the formation of Jupiter-mass planets orbiting M dwarfs is seriously inhibited at all radial locations (in sharp contrast to solar-type stars).
Journal ArticleDOI
Photoevaporation of Circumstellar Disks Due to External Far-Ultraviolet Radiation in Stellar Aggregates
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on systems in which photoevaporation is suppressed because rd < rg and show that significant mass loss still takes place as long as rd/rg 0.1-0.2.
