Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA): Planets, Oscillations, Rotation, and Massive Stars
Bill Paxton,Matteo Cantiello,Phil Arras,Lars Bildsten,Edward F. Brown,Aaron Dotter,Christopher R. Mankovich,Michael H. Montgomery,Dennis Stello,Francis Timmes,Richard H. D. Townsend +10 more
TL;DR: Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) as discussed by the authors is an open source software package for modeling the evolution of stellar structures and composition. But it is not suitable for large-scale systems such as supernovae.

Orbital migration of the planetary companion of 51 Pegasi to its present location
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that if the companion is indeed a gas-giant planet, it is extremely unlikely to have formed at its present location, and suggest instead that the planet probably formed by gradual accretion of solids and capture of gas at a much larger distance from the star (∼5 AU), and that it subsequently migrated inwards through interactions with the remnants of the circumstellar disk.
