Statistics of Magrathea Exoplanets Beyond The Main Sequence. Simulating The Long-term Evolution Of Circumbinary Giant Planets With TRES
Notwithstanding the tremendous growth of the exoplanetary field in the last decade, limited attention has been paid to the planets around binary stars. Circumbinary planets (CBPs) have been discovered primarily […]
