Six transiting planets and a chain of Laplace resonances in TOI-178

Six transiting planets and a chain of Laplace resonances in TOI-178

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 …
