Orbital Eccentricities Suggest a Gradual Transition from Giant Planets to Brown Dwarfs
To date, hundreds of substellar objects with masses between 1 and 80 M _Jup have been detected orbiting main-sequence stars. The current convention uses the deuterium-burning limit, M _c ≈ 13 M _Jup to divide this population between giant planets and brown dwarfs. However, this classification heuri...
