Northwestern team launches tool to predict directly-imaged exoplanet positions
Astronomer Jason Wang, with collaborators Matas Kulikauskas and Sarah Blunt, has released an online tool called 'Where Is the Planet' that predicts the current and future positions of directly-imaged exoplanets and brown dwarf companions in their orbits. The tool accepts requests to add new orbits and provides a citation record for researchers who use it in published work.
