  2. Open clusters are nature’s laboratories � — OCs have long been crucial for testing stellar evolution � — For given age, composition, dynamical environment, can characterize – as function of stellar mass – stellar structure, activity, binary population, etc. � How is planetary formation and evolution affected? � What can we learn from comparative studies? �

  3. But are there any cluster planets to study? � Cluster � Year � Authors � Method � Short period planets* � Hyades � 2004 � Paulson+ � RV � 0 � NGC 7789 � 2005 � Bramich+ � Transit � 0 � NGC 2158 � 2006 � Mochejska+ � Transit � 0 � NGC 7086 � 2006 � Rosvick+ � Transit � 0 � NGC 6791 � 2007 � Montalto+ � Transit � 0 � NGC 188 � 2008 � Mochejska+ � Transit � 0 � Praesepe � 2008 � Pepper+ � Transit � 0 � NGC 2362 � 2008 � Miller+ � Transit � 0 � M37 � 2009 � Hartman+ � Transit � 0 � M67 � 2012 � Pasquini+ � RV � 0 � *2 long period super-Jupiters were known to orbit massive evolved stars in the Hyades (Sato+ 2007) and NGC 2423 (Lovis & Mayor 2007).

  4. Where are the cluster hot Jupiters? � Planets are common around field stars (Fressin+ 2013, Mayor+ 2011). � Most stars form in a clustered environment (Lada 2 2003, Bressert+ 2010). � Shouldn’t we expect planets in clusters? � � Potential explanations: � � 1. Dense stellar environments (like those that survive as clusters) inhibit the formation and/or migration of giant planets. (e.g., Eisner+ 2008). � 2. Given hot Jupiter occurrence around field stars (~1%; Mayor+ 2011, Wright+ 2012), all previous surveys combined might only expect 1 (or 0) planets (van Saders & Gaudi 2011) � But #1 is an important point to keep in mind! � We KNOW the stellar environment affects planets at some level. � Is this a smooth function of environment? Is there a threshold? �

  5. More recent history of cluster planets � Cluster � Year � Authors � Method � Short period planets � Praesepe � 2012 � Quinn+ � RV � 2 � NGC 6811 � 2013 � Meibom+ � Transit � 2 (mini-Neptunes) � Hyades � 2014 � Quinn+ � RV � 1 � M67 � 2014 � Brucalassi+ � RV � 2 � Adjusted for completeness: � Field stars: � ~ 1% � + 1.92 % 1.97 − 1.07 Praesepe and Hyades: � + 0.96 % [Fe/H]=0 equivalent: � 0.99 − 0.54 � + 3.00 % 2.00 − 1.50 M67: � � NGC 6811: consistent �

  6. The Planetary Laboratory � Example experiment: Does hot Jupiter migration occur primarily through interactions with the disk (Type II) or with other bodies (planet-planet scattering, Kozai-Lidov)? � Planet-planet scattering � Type II � P. Armitage � Ford & Rasio; T. Schindler/NSF � — Expected to preserve circular orbits � — Can produce significant eccentricity � — Occurs within 10 Myr � — May take hundreds of Myr � Observing soon after migration can identify dominant mechanism �
