Models of Planets and Brown Dwarfs in Mira Winds

We present numerical hydrodynamical models of the effects of planets or brown dwarfs orbiting within the extended atmosphere and wind formation zone of Mira variables. We find time-dependent wake dynamics and episodic accretion phenomena which may give rise to observable optical events and affect Si...

Description
Summary:We present numerical hydrodynamical models of the effects of planets or brown dwarfs orbiting within the extended atmosphere and wind formation zone of Mira variables. We find time-dependent wake dynamics and episodic accretion phenomena which may give rise to observable optical events and affect SiO maser emission.
