Implications of the TTV-detection of close-in terrestrial planets around M stars for their origin and dynamical evolution
It has been shown that an Earth-size planet or a super-Earth, in resonance with a transiting Jupiter-like body around an M star, can create detectable TTV signals (Kirste & Haghighipour, 2011). Given the low masses of M stars and their circumstellar disks, it is expected that the transiting gian...
