AN "IMPROBABLE" PLANETARY SYSTEM: COMPACT, COPLANAR, AND SHAPED BY A BROWN DWARF

AN "IMPROBABLE" PLANETARY SYSTEM: COMPACT, COPLANAR, AND SHAPED BY A BROWN DWARF An international team involving over ten institutions, with a strong participation from ESO and INAF, has characterised TOI-201 c, the transiting brown dwarf with the longest period for which mass has been measured. The study, published today in Nature, reveals a compact, coplanar system in which the presence of a massive, eccentric object redefines the stability boundaries for the inner planets

Thanks to high-resolution images from ALMA, it has emerged that these cores form according to the same patterns observed in the Milky Way. The result suggests that the initial fragmentation mechanisms of gas and dust clumps, from which stars are born, are universal and independent of the galactic environment.
