We perform numerical simulations to study the secular orbital evolution and dynamical structure in the quintuplet planetary system 55 Cancri with the self-consistent orbital solutions by Fischer and coworkers (2008). In the simulations, we show that this system can be stable at least for $10^{8}$ yr. In addition, we extensively investigate the planetary configuration of four outer companions with one terrestrial planet in the wide region of 0.790 AU $leq a leq $ 5.900 AU to examine the existence of potential asteroid structure and Habitable Zones (HZs). We show that there are unstable regions for the orbits about 4:1, 3:1 and 5:2 mean motion resonances (MMRs) with the outermost planet in the system, and several stable orbits can remain at 3:2 and 1:1 MMRs, which is resemblance to the asteroidal belt in solar system. In a dynamical point, the proper candidate HZs for the existence of more potential terrestrial planets reside in the wide area between 1.0 AU and 2.3 AU for relatively low eccentricities.

The bright star 55 Cancri is known to host five planets, including a transiting super-Earth. We use the CHARA Array to directly determine the following of 55 Cncs stellar astrophysical parameters: $R=0.943 pm 0.010 R_{odot}$, $T_{rm EFF} = 5196 pm 24
$ K. Planet 55 Cnc f ($M sin i = 0.155 M_{Jupiter}$) spends the majority of the duration of its elliptical orbit in the circumstellar habitable zone (0.67--1.32 AU) where, with moderate greenhouse heating, it could harbor liquid water. Our determination of 55 Cancris stellar radius allows for a model-independent calculation of the physical diameter of the transiting super-Earth 55 Cnc e ($simeq 2.1 R_{earth}$), which, depending on the assumed literature value of planetary mass, implies a bulk density of 0.76 $rho_{earth}$ or 1.07 $rho_{earth}$.
The bright star 55 Cancri is known to host five planets, including a transiting super-Earth. The study presented here yields directly determined values for 55 Cncs stellar astrophysical parameters based on improved interferometry: $R=0.943 pm 0.010 R
_{odot}$, $T_{rm EFF} = 5196 pm 24$ K. We use isochrone fitting to determine 55 Cncs age to be 10.2 $pm$ 2.5 Gyr, implying a stellar mass of $0.905 pm 0.015 M_{odot}$. Our analysis of the location and extent of the systems habitable zone (0.67--1.32 AU) shows that planet f, with period $sim$ 260 days and $M sin i = 0.155 M_{Jupiter}$, spends the majority of the duration of its elliptical orbit in the circumstellar habitable zone. Though planet f is too massive to harbor liquid water on any planetary surface, we elaborate on the potential of alternative low-mass objects in planet fs vicinity: a large moon, and a low-mass planet on a dynamically stable orbit within the habitable zone. Finally, our direct value for 55 Cancris stellar radius allows for a model-independent calculation of the physical diameter of the transiting super-Earth 55 Cnc e ($sim 2.05 pm 0.15 R_{earth}$), which, depending on the planetary mass assumed, implies a bulk density of 0.76 $rho_{earth}$ or 1.07 $rho_{earth}$.
We perform numerical simulations to study the Habitable zones (HZs) and dynamical structure for Earth-mass planets in multiple planetary systems. For example, in the HD 69830 system, we extensively explore the planetary configuration of three Neptune
-mass companions with one massive terrestrial planet residing in 0.07 AU $leq a leq$ 1.20 AU, to examine the asteroid structure in this system. We underline that there are stable zones of at least $10^5$ yr for low-mass terrestrial planets locating between 0.3 and 0.5 AU, and 0.8 and 1.2 AU with final eccentricities of $e < 0.20$. Moreover, we also find that the accumulation or depletion of the asteroid belt are also shaped by orbital resonances of the outer planets, for example, the asteroidal gaps at 2:1 and 3:2 mean motion resonances (MMRs) with Planet C, and 5:2 and 1:2 MMRs with Planet D. In a dynamical sense, the proper candidate regions for the existence of the potential terrestrial planets or HZs are 0.35 AU $< a < $ 0.50 AU, and 0.80 AU $< a < $ 1.00 AU for relatively low eccentricities, which makes sense to have the possible asteroidal structure in this system.
We present archival Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) observations of two exoplanetary systems, $tau$ Bootis, and 55 Cancri, at 610 MHz and 150 MHz, respectively. Theoretical models predict these systems to have some of the highest expected flux
densities at radio wavelengths. Both $tau$ Bootis and 55 Cancri have been previously observed at low frequency ($sim$ 30 MHz) with Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) (Turner et al. 2020). $tau$ Bootis shows tentative signatures of circularly polarized emission at 30 MHz, while no emission was detected from 55 Cancri. We do not detect radio emission from both the systems, but the GMRT observations set $3sigma$ upper limits of 0.6 mJy at 610 MHz for $tau$ Bootis and 4.6 mJy at 150 MHz for 55 Cancri. The sensitivity achieved at 610 MHz in these observations is comparable to some of the deepest images of an exoplanet field.
We integrate the orbital solutions of the planets orbiting 55 Cnc. In the simulations, we find that not only three resonant arguments $theta_{1}=lambda_{1}-3lambda_{2}+2tildeomega_{1}$, $theta_{2}=lambda_{1}-3lambda_{2}+2tildeomega_{2}$ and $theta_{3
}=lambda_{1}-3lambda_{2}+(tildeomega_{1}+tildeomega_{2})$ librate respectively, but the relative apsidal longitudes $Deltaomega$ also librates about $250^{circ}$ for millions of years. The results imply the existence of the 3:1 resonance and the apsidal resonance for the studied system. We emphasize that the mean motion resonance and apsidal locking can act as two important mechanisms of stabilizing the system. In addition, we further investigate the secular dynamics of this system by comparing the numerical results with those given by Laplace-Lagrange secular theory.
