SHAO Astrophysics Colloquia
Circumbinary Planets
Speaker: Dong Lai(Cornell University)
Time: Wednesday, 15:00am, Jan. 6, 2016
Location: Lecture Hall, 3rd floor
In the last few years, the Kepler Spacecraft has found a dozen or so
transiting planets orbiting around binary stars. The existence of
these circumbinary planets suggests that planets can form efficiently
around stellar binaries. I will discuss some of the challenges to the
theory of planet formation posed by these cicumbinary planets,
focusing on the issue of the survival of planets around shrinking
binaries.
