Asymptotic gravitational-wave fluxes from a spinning test body on generic orbits around a Kerr black hole

Kavli Affiliate: Scott A. Hughes | First 5 Authors: Viktor Skoupý, Georgios Lukes-Gerakopoulos, Lisa V. Drummond, Scott A. Hughes, | Summary: This work provides gravitational wave energy and angular momentum asymptotic fluxes from a spinning body moving on generic orbits in a Kerr spacetime up to linear in spin approximation. To achieve this, we have […]

Three Saturn-mass planets transiting F-type stars revealed with TESS and HARPS

Kavli Affiliate: Gabor Furesz | First 5 Authors: Angelica Psaridi, François Bouchy, Monika Lendl, Babatunde Akinsanmi, Keivan G. Stassun | Summary: While the sample of confirmed exoplanets continues to increase, the population of transiting exoplanets around early-type stars is still limited. These planets allow us to investigate the planet properties and formation pathways over a […]

Stability and detectability of exomoons orbiting HIP 41378 f, a temperate Jovian planet with an anomalously low apparent density

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | First 5 Authors: Caleb K. Harada, Courtney D. Dressing, Munazza K. Alam, James Kirk, Mercedes Lopez-Morales | Summary: Moons orbiting exoplanets ("exomoons") may hold clues about planet formation, migration, and habitability. In this work, we investigate the plausibility of exomoons orbiting the temperate ($T_text{eq}=294$ K) giant ($R = 9.2$ R$_oplus$) […]

Orbital decay in an accreting and eclipsing 13.7 minute orbital period binary with a luminous donor

Kavli Affiliate: Saul Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Kevin B. Burdge, Kareem El-Badry, Saul Rappaport, Tin Long Sunny Wong, Evan B. Bauer | Summary: We report the discovery of ZTF J0127+5258, a compact mass-transferring binary with an orbital period of 13.7 minutes. The system contains a white dwarf accretor, which likely originated as a post-common […]
