We generalize the Laplace resonance among three satellites, S1, S2 , and S3, by considering different ratios of the mean-longitude variations. These resonances, which we call Laplace-like, are classified as first order in the cases of the 2:1&2:1, 3:2&3:2, and 2:1&3:2 resonances, second order in the case of the 3:1&3:1 resonance, and mixed order in the case of the 2:1&3:1 resonance. We consider a model that includes the gravitational interaction with the central body together with the effect due to its oblateness, the mutual gravitational influence of the satellites S1, S2, and S3 and the secular gravitational effect of a fourth satellite S 4 , which plays the role of Callisto in the Galilean system. In addition, we consider the dissipative effect due to the tidal torque between the inner satellite and the central body. We investigate these Laplace-like resonances by studying different aspects: (i) we study the survival of the resonances when the dissipation is included, taking two different expressions for the dissipative effect in the case of a fast- or a slowly rotating central body, (ii) we investigate the behavior of the Laplace-like resonances when some parameters are varied, specifically, the oblateness coefficient, the semimajor axes, and the eccentricities of the satellites, (iii) we analyze the linear stability of first-order resonances for different values of the parameters, and (iv) we also include the full gravitational interaction with S 4 to analyze its possible capture into resonance. The results show a marked difference between first-, second-, and mixed-order resonances, which might find applications when the evolutionary history of the satellites in the Solar System are studied, and also in possible actual configurations of extrasolar planetary systems.

Extrasolar systems with planets on eccentric orbits close to or in mean-motion resonances are common. The classical low-order resonant Hamiltonian expansion is unfit to describe the long-term evolution of these systems. We extend the Laplace-Lagrange
secular approximation for coplanar systems with two planets by including (near-)resonant harmonics, and realize an expansion at high order in the eccentricities of the resonant Hamiltonian both at orders one and two in the masses. We show that the expansion at first order in the masses gives a qualitative good approximation of the dynamics of resonant extrasolar systems with moderate eccentricities, while the second order is needed to reproduce more accurately their orbital evolutions. The resonant approach is also required to correct the secular frequencies of the motion given by the Laplace-Lagrange secular theory in the vicinity of a mean-motion resonance. The dynamical evolutions of four (near-)resonant extrasolar systems are discussed, namely GJ 876 (2:1 resonance), HD 60532 (3:1), HD 108874 and GJ 3293 (close to 4:1).
Determining the architecture of multi-planetary systems is one of the cornerstones of understanding planet formation and evolution. Resonant systems are especially important as the fragility of their orbital configuration ensures that no significant
scattering or collisional event has taken place since the earliest formation phase when the parent protoplanetary disc was still present. In this context, TOI-178 has been the subject of particular attention since the first TESS observations hinted at a 2:3:3 resonant chain. Here we report the results of observations from CHEOPS, ESPRESSO, NGTS, and SPECULOOS with the aim of deciphering the peculiar orbital architecture of the system. We show that TOI-178 harbours at least six planets in the super-Earth to mini-Neptune regimes, with radii ranging from 1.152(-0.070/+0.073) to 2.87(-0.13/+0.14) Earth radii and periods of 1.91, 3.24, 6.56, 9.96, 15.23, and 20.71 days. All planets but the innermost one form a 2:4:6:9:12 chain of Laplace resonances, and the planetary densities show important variations from planet to planet, jumping from 1.02(+0.28/-0.23) to 0.177(+0.055/-0.061) times the Earths density between planets c and d. Using Bayesian interior structure retrieval models, we show that the amount of gas in the planets does not vary in a monotonous way, contrary to what one would expect from simple formation and evolution models and unlike other known systems in a chain of Laplace resonances. The brightness of TOI-178 allows for a precise characterisation of its orbital architecture as well as of the physical nature of the six presently known transiting planets it harbours. The peculiar orbital configuration and the diversity in average density among the planets in the system will enable the study of interior planetary structures and atmospheric evolution, providing important clues on the formation of super-Earths and mini-Neptunes.
We study the orbital evolution of a three planet system with masses in the super-Earth regime resulting from the action of tides on the planets induced by the central star which cause orbital circularization. We consider systems either in or near to
a three body commensurability for which adjacent pairs of planets are in a first order commensurability. We develop a simple analytic solution, derived from a time averaged set of equations, that describes the expansion of the system away from strict commensurability as a function of time, once a state where relevant resonant angles undergo small amplitude librations has been attained. We perform numerical simulations that show the attainment of such resonant states focusing on the Kepler 60 system. The results of the simulations confirm many of the scalings predicted by the appropriate analytic solution. We go on to indicate how the results can be applied to put constraints on the amount of tidal dissipation that has occurred in the system. For example, if the system has been in a librating state since its formation, we find that its present period ratios imply an upper limit on the time average of 1/Q, with Q being the tidal dissipation parameter. On the other hand if a librating state has not been attained, a lower upper bound applies.
Impacts between planetary-sized bodies can explain the origin of satellites orbiting large ($R>500$~km) trans-Neptunian objects. Their water rich composition, along with the complex phase diagram of water, make it important to accurately model the wi
de range of thermodynamic conditions material experiences during an impact event and in the debris disk. Since differences in the thermodynamics may influence the system dynamics, we seek to evaluate how the choice of an equation of state (EOS) alters the systems evolution. Specifically, we compare two EOSs that are constructed by different approaches: either by a simplified analytic description (Tillotson), or by interpolation of tabulated data (Sesame). Approximately $50$ pairs of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics impact simulations were performed, with similar initial conditions but different EOSs, in the parameter space in which the Pluto-Charon binary is thought to form (slow impacts between Pluto-size, water rich bodies). Generally, we show that impact outcomes (e.g., circumplanetary debris disk) are consistent between EOSs. Some differences arise, importantly in the production of satellitesimals (large intact clumps) that form in the post-impact debris disk. When utilizing an analytic EOS, the emergence of satellitesimals is highly certain, while when using the tabulated EOS it is less common. This is because for the typical densities and energies experienced in these impacts, the analytic EOS predicts very low pressure values, leading to particles artificially aggregating by a tensile instability.
We present a three-species (H$^+$, O$^+$ and e$^-$) multi-fluid magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model, endowed with the requisite upper atmospheric chemistry, that is capable of accurately quantifying the magnitude of oxygen ion losses from Earth-like exop
lanets in habitable zones, whose magnetic and rotational axes are roughly coincidental with one another. We apply this model to investigate the role of planetary obliquity in regulating atmospheric losses from a magnetic perspective. For Earth-like exoplanets orbiting solar-type stars, we demonstrate that the dependence of the total atmospheric ion loss rate on the planetary (magnetic) obliquity is relatively weak; the escape rates are found to vary between $2.19 times 10^{26}$ s$^{-1}$ to $2.37 times 10^{26}$ s$^{-1}$. In contrast, the obliquity can influence the atmospheric escape rate ($sim$ $10^{28}$ s$^{-1}$) by more than a factor of $2$ (or $200%$) in the case of Earth-like exoplanets orbiting late-type M-dwarfs. Thus, our simulations indicate that planetary obliquity may play a weak-to-moderate role insofar as the retention of an atmosphere (necessary for surface habitability) is concerned.
