    Lurking in the Shadows: Wide-Separation Gas Giants as Tracers of Planet Formation Thesis by Marta Levesque Bryan In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Pasadena, California 2018 Defended May 1, 2018 ii © 2018 Marta Levesque Bryan ORCID: [0000-0002-6076-5967] All rights reserved iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost I would like to thank Heather Knutson, who I had the great privilege of working with as my thesis advisor. Her encouragement, guidance, and perspective helped me navigate many a challenging problem, and my conversations with her were a consistent source of positivity and learning throughout my time at Caltech. I leave graduate school a better scientist and person for having her as a role model. Heather fostered a wonderfully positive and supportive environment for her students, giving us the space to explore and grow - I could not have asked for a better advisor or research experience. I would also like to thank Konstantin Batygin for enthusiastic and illuminating discussions that always left me more excited to explore the result at hand. Thank you as well to Dimitri Mawet for providing both expertise and contagious optimism for some of my latest direct imaging endeavors. Thank you to the rest of my thesis committee, namely Geoff Blake, Evan Kirby, and Chuck Steidel for their support, helpful conversations, and insightful questions. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to collaborate with Brendan Bowler. His talk at Caltech my second year of graduate school introduced me to an unexpected population of massive wide-separation planetary-mass companions, and lead to a long-running collaboration from which several of my thesis projects were born.

In this work we derive new precise and homogeneous parameters for 37 stars with planets. For this purpose, we analyze high resolution spectra obtained by the NARVAL spectrograph for a sample composed of bright planet host stars in the northern hemisphere. The new parameters are included in the SWEET-Cat online catalogue. Methods. To ensure that the catalogue is homogeneous, we use our standard spectroscopic analysis procedure, ARES+MOOG, to derive effective temperatures, surface gravities, and metallicities. These spectroscopic stellar parameters are then used as input to compute the stellar mass and radius, which are fundamental for the derivation of the planetary mass and radius.

At the beginning of the nominal mission in July 2014, an operation scheme was adopted that enabled Gaia to routinely acquire observations of all stars brighter than the original limit of G∼6, i.e. the naked-eye stars. Here, we describe the current status and extent of those observations and their on-ground processing. We present an overview of the data products generated for G<6 stars and the potential scientific applications. Finally, we discuss how the Gaia survey could be enhanced by further exploiting the techniques we developed. Keywords: Gaia, Astrometry, Proper motion, Parallax, Bright Stars, Extrasolar planets, CCD 1. INTRODUCTION There are about 6000 stars that can be observed with the unaided human eye. Greek astronomer Hipparchus used these stars to define the magnitude system still in use today, in which the faintest stars had an apparent visual magnitude of 6.

Wolszczan2,3 1Torun´ Centre for Astronomy, Nicolaus Copernicus University, Torun,´ Poland 2Department for Astronomy and Astrophysics, Pennsylvania State University 3Center for Exoplanets and Habitable Worlds Abstract. We present the discovery of sub-stellar mass companions to three stars by the ongoing Penn State – Torun´ Planet Search (PTPS) conducted with the 9.2 m Hobby-Eberly Telescope. 1. INTRODUCTION Searches for planets around giant stars extend studies of planetary system formation and evolution to stars substantially more massive than 1 M (Hatzes et al. 2006; Sato et al. 2008; Niedzielski et al. 2009). Although searches for massive sub-stellar companions to early-type stars are possible (Galland 2005), it is much more efficient to utilize the power of the radial velocity (RV) method by exploiting the many narrow spectral lines of GK-giants, the descendants of the main sequence A-F type stars, sufficient to achieve a < 10 ms−1 RV measurement precision. The GK-giant surveys provide constraints on the efficiency of planet formation as a function of stellar mass and chemical composition. In fact, analyses by Johnson et al. (2007) and Lovis & Mayor (2007) extend to giants the correlation between planetary masses and primary mass that is observed for the lower-mass stars. This is most likely because massive stars tend to have more massive disks.

  • Dynamical Stability and Habitability of a Terrestrial Planet in HD74156
    A dynamic search for potential habitable planets amongst the extrasolar planets 1,2 1 1 1,3 1, 4 P. Hinds , A. Munro , S. T. Maddison , C. Tan , and M. C. Gino [1] Swinburne University, Australia [2] Pierce College, USA [3] Methodist Ladies’ College, Australia [4] Dudley Observatory, USA ABSTRACT: While the detection of habitable terrestrial planets around nearby stars is currently beyond our observational capabilities, dynamical studies can help us locate potential candidates. Following from the work of Menou & Tabachnik (2003), we use a symplectic integrator to search for potential stable terrestrial planetary orbits in the habitable zones of known extrasolar planetary systems. A swarm of massless test particles is initially used to identify stability zones, and then an Earth-mass planet is placed within these zones to investigate their dynamical stability. We investigate 22 new systems discovered since the work of Menou & Tabachnik, as well as simulate some of the previous 85 extrasolar systems whose orbital parameters have been more precisely constrained. In particular, we model three systems that are now confirmed or potential double planetary systems: HD169830, HD160691 and eps Eridani. The results of these dynamical studies can be used as a potential target list for the Terrestrial Planet Finder. Introduction Numerical Technique Results & Discussion To date 122 extrasolar planets have been detected around 107 stars, with 13 of them To follow the evolution of the planetary systems, we use the SWIFT integration software package1. This The systems we have investigated broadly fall in four categories: (1) unstable being multiple planet systems (Schneider, 2004). Observational evidence for the allows us to model a planetary system and a swarm of massless test particles in orbit around a central star.

    How eccentric orbital solutions can hide planetary systems in 2:1 resonant orbits Guillem Anglada-Escud´e1, Mercedes L´opez-Morales1,2, John E. Chambers1 [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT The Doppler technique measures the reflex radial motion of a star induced by the presence of companions and is the most successful method to detect ex- oplanets. If several planets are present, their signals will appear combined in the radial motion of the star, leading to potential misinterpretations of the data. Specifically, two planets in 2:1 resonant orbits can mimic the signal of a sin- gle planet in an eccentric orbit. We quantify the implications of this statistical degeneracy for a representative sample of the reported single exoplanets with available datasets, finding that 1) around 35% percent of the published eccentric one-planet solutions are statistically indistinguishible from planetary systems in 2:1 orbital resonance, 2) another 40% cannot be statistically distinguished from a circular orbital solution and 3) planets with masses comparable to Earth could be hidden in known orbital solutions of eccentric super-Earths and Neptune mass planets. Subject headings: Exoplanets – Orbital dynamics – Planet detection – Doppler method arXiv:0809.1275v2 [astro-ph] 25 Nov 2009 Introduction Most of the +300 exoplanets found to date have been discovered using the Doppler tech- nique, which measures the reflex motion of the host star induced by the planets (Mayor & Queloz 1995; Marcy & Butler 1996). The diverse characteristics of these exoplanets are somewhat surprising.

  • Today in Astronomy 106: Exoplanets
    Today in Astronomy 106: exoplanets The successful search for extrasolar planets Prospects for determining the fraction of stars with planets, and the number of habitable planets per planetary system (fp and ne). T. Pyle, SSC/JPL/Caltech/NASA. 26 May 2011 Astronomy 106, Summer 2011 1 Observing exoplanets Stars are vastly brighter and more massive than planets, and most stars are far enough away that the planets are lost in the glare. So astronomers have had to be more clever and employ the motion of the orbiting planet. The methods they use (exoplanets detected thereby): Astrometry (0): tiny wobble in star’s motion across the sky. Radial velocity (399): tiny wobble in star’s motion along the line of sight by Doppler shift. Timing (9): tiny delay or advance in arrival of pulses from regularly-pulsating stars. Gravitational microlensing (10): brightening of very distant star as it passes behind a planet. 26 May 2011 Astronomy 106, Summer 2011 2 Observing exoplanets (continued) Transits (69): periodic eclipsing of star by planet, or vice versa. Very small effect, about like that of a bug flying in front of the headlight of a car 10 miles away. Imaging (11 but 6 are most likely to be faint stars): taking a picture of the planet, usually by blotting out the star. Of these by far the most useful so far has been the combination of radial-velocity and transit detection. Astrometry and gravitational microlensing of sufficient precision to detect lots of planets would need dedicated, specialized observatories in space. Imaging lots of planets will require 30-meter-diameter telescopes for visible and infrared wavelengths.

Precise radial-velocity observations at Haute-Provence Observatory (OHP, France) with the ELODIE echelle spec- trograph have been undertaken since 1994. In addition to several discoveries described elsewhere, including and following that of 51 Peg b, they reveal new sub-stellar companions with essentially moderate to long periods. We report here about such companions orbiting five solar-type stars (HD 8574, HD 23596, HD 33636, HD 50554, HD 106252) and one sub-giant star (HD 190228). The companion of HD 8574 has an intermediate period of 227.55 days and a semi-major axis of 0.77 AU. All other companions have long periods, exceeding 3 years, and consequently their semi-major axes are around or above 2 AU. The detected companions have minimum masses m2 sin i ranging from slightly more than 2 MJup to 10.6 MJup. These additional objects reinforce the conclusion that most planetary companions have masses lower than 5 MJup but with a tail of the mass dis- tribution going up above 15 MJup.
