Unexpected Near-Resonant and Metastable States of Young Multi-Planet Systems

Zhecheng Hu, Fei Dai, Wei Zhu +4

Recent observations suggest that the incidence of near-resonant planets declines as planetary systems age, making young planetary systems key signposts of early dynamical evolution…

Slow Rotation for the Super-Puff Planet Kepler-51d

Caleb Lammers, Joshua N. Winn

Super-puffs are low-density planets of unknown origin and composition. If they form by accreting nebular gas through a circumplanetary disk, one might expect super-puffs to be spin…

The six-planet resonant chain of HD 110067

Caleb Lammers, Joshua N. Winn

HD 110067 is the brightest star known to have six transiting planets. Each adjacent pair of planets has a period ratio that is nearly equal to a ratio of small integers, suggesting…

POSEIDON II: The Anti-Aligned Orbit of the Warm Neptune TOI-1710 A b

Juan I. Espinoza-Retamal, Hareesh Bhaskar, Joshua N. Winn +7

We present an observation of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect for the TOI-1710 system with the NEID spectrograph on the WIYN 3.5 m telescope. The system hosts a warm Neptune ($P\sim2…

On the Exoplanet Yield of Gaia Astrometry

Caleb Lammers, Joshua N. Winn

We re-examine the expected yield of Gaia astrometric planet detections using updated models for giant-planet occurrence, the local stellar population, and Gaia's demonstrated astro…

AGN Feedback in SDSS-IV MaNGA: AGNs have Suppressed Central Star Formation Rates

Caleb Lammers, Kartheik G. Iyer, Hector Ibarra-Medel +4

Despite the importance of feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in models of galaxy evolution, observational constraints on the influence of AGN feedback on star formation re…

Intra-system uniformity: a natural outcome of dynamical sculpting

Caleb Lammers, Sam Hadden, Norman Murray

There is evidence that exoplanet systems display intra-system uniformity in mass, radius, and orbital spacing (like ``peas in a pod'') when compared with the system-to-system varia…

The Gap-Giant Association: Are Planets Hiding in the Gaps?

Caleb Lammers, Joshua N. Winn

A handful of stars are known to host both an inner system of multiple transiting planets and an outer giant planet. These systems all feature a prominent gap between the orbits of…

The instability mechanism of compact multiplanet systems

Caleb Lammers, Sam Hadden, Norman Murray

To improve our understanding of orbital instabilities in compact planetary systems, we compare suites of -body simulations against numerical integrations of simplified dynamical…

Discovery and Dynamics of the Nontransiting Planet Kepler-139f

Caleb Lammers, Joshua N. Winn

Among the ways that an outer giant planet can alter the architecture of an inner planetary system is by tilting the orbits of the inner planets and reducing their mutual transit pr…

TTV-Not-So-Fast: Uniqueness and Degeneracy in Perturbing Planet Parameters

Caleb Lammers, Joshua N. Winn

Nontransiting planets can reveal themselves through transit timing variations (TTVs), but inferring the properties of the perturbing planet is a highly degenerate inverse problem.…

Accelerating Giant Impact Simulations with Machine Learning

Caleb Lammers, Miles Cranmer, Sam Hadden +3

Constraining planet formation models based on the observed exoplanet population requires generating large samples of synthetic planetary systems, which can be computationally prohi…

Candidate high-redshift protoclusters and lensed galaxies in the Planck list of high-z sources overlapping with Herschel-SPIRE imaging

Caleb Lammers, Ryley Hill, Seunghwan Lim +3

The Planck list of high-redshift source candidates (the PHz catalogue) contains 2151 peaks in the cosmic infrared background, unresolved by Planck's 5 arcmin beam. Follow-up spectr…
