A celestial matryoshka: Dynamical and spectroscopic analysis of the Albireo system
Ronald Drimmel, Alessandro Sozzetti, Klaus-Peter Schroeder +4
We present a spectroscopic characterisation and a new orbital solution for the binary system beta Cyg Aa/Ac (MCA 55), the primary component (beta Cyg A) of the well-known wide doub…
The HD 60779 Planetary System: A Transiting Sub-Neptune on a 30-day Orbit and a More Massive Outer World
Victoria DiTomasso, David Charbonneau, Andrew Vanderburg +37
We present the discovery of the planetary system orbiting the bright (V = 7.2), nearby (35 pc), Sun-like star HD 60779, which has a mass of 1.050 +/- 0.044 solar masses and a radiu…
The GAPS Programme at TNG XXVIII -- A pair of hot-Neptunes orbiting the young star TOI-942
Ilaria Carleo, Silvano Desidera, Domenico Nardiello +48
Both young stars and multi-planet systems are primary objects that allow us to study, understand and constrain planetary formation and evolution theories. We validate the physical…
Understanding eccentric temperate giants: an in-depth study of the architecture and stellar obliquity of the TOI-2134 system
Federica Rescigno, Manu Stalport, Ancy Anna John +28
We revisit the TOI-2134 planetary system with three new high-cadence TESS sectors and 98 more spectra. This new analysis confirms the two orbiting planets by simultaneously modelli…
TOI-4010: A System of Three Large Short-Period Planets With a Massive Long-Period Companion
Michelle Kunimoto, Andrew Vanderburg, Chelsea X. Huang +53
We report the confirmation of three exoplanets transiting TOI-4010 (TIC-352682207), a metal-rich K dwarf observed by TESS in Sectors 24, 25, 52, and 58. We confirm these planets wi…
Masses, Revised Radii, and a Third Planet Candidate in the "Inverted" Planetary System Around TOI-1266
Ryan Cloutier, Michael Greklek-McKeon, Serena Wurmser +40
Is the population of close-in planets orbiting M dwarfs sculpted by thermally driven escape or is it a direct outcome of the planet formation process? A number of recent empirical…
A pair of TESS planets spanning the radius valley around the nearby mid-M dwarf LTT 3780
Ryan Cloutier, Jason D. Eastman, Joseph E. Rodriguez +84
We present the confirmation of two new planets transiting the nearby mid-M dwarf LTT 3780 (TIC 36724087, TOI-732, , , =0.374 R, =0.401 M$_{\…
Gas-depleted planet formation occurred in the four-planet system around the red dwarf LHS 1903
Thomas G. Wilson, Anna M. Simpson, Andrew Collier Cameron +173
Small exoplanet radii show two populations, referred to as super-Earths and sub-Neptunes, separated by a gap known as the radius valley. This may be produced by the removal of atmo…
TOI-1235 b: a keystone super-Earth for testing radius valley emergence models around early M dwarfs
Ryan Cloutier, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Jonathan Irwin +85
Small planets on close-in orbits tend to exhibit envelope mass fractions of either effectively zero or up to a few percent depending on their size and orbital period. Models of the…
Identifying Exoplanets with Deep Learning. IV. Removing Stellar Activity Signals from Radial Velocity Measurements Using Neural Networks
Zoe L. de Beurs, Andrew Vanderburg, Christopher J. Shallue +24
Exoplanet detection with precise radial velocity (RV) observations is currently limited by spurious RV signals introduced by stellar activity. We show that machine learning techniq…
Searching for Exoplanets Born Outside the Milky Way: VOYAGERS Survey Design
Robert Aloisi, Andrew Vanderburg, Melinda Soares-Furtado +44
Observations over the past few decades have found that planets are common around nearby stars in our Galaxy, but little is known about planets that formed outside the Milky Way. We…
Independent validation of the temperate Super-Earth HD79211 b using HARPS-N
Victoria DiTomasso, Chantanelle Nava, Mercedes López-Morales +28
We present high-precision radial velocities (RVs) from the HARPS-N spectrograph for HD79210 and HD79211, two M0V members of a gravitationally-bound binary system. We detect a plane…
