Good Combination of the Rossiter-McLaughlin Measurements and Direct Imaging Observations

We introduce a novel methodology to distinguish planetary migration mechanisms by a combination of Rossiter-McLaughlin measurements and direct imaging observations. The methodology is especially useful to specify a planetary migration mechanism one-by-one for an eccentric or tilted planet. We presen...
