Exponential Distance Relation and Near Resonances in the Trappist-1 Planetary System

Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics 2017-03-20 v2

Abstract

We report in this paper a new exponential relation distance of planets in the newly discovered exoplanetary system of the Trappist-1 star, and we comment on near orbital mean motion resonances among the seven planets. We predict that possible smaller planets could be found inside the orbit of the innermost discovered Planet b.
