HD 715 b, a Warm Jupiter Orbiting a Massive Subgiant Discovered from a Single TESS Transit

Alexander Venner, Robert A. Wittenmyer, Andrew Vanderburg +23

Transiting Warm Jupiters orbiting bright stars are scarcely known, but a substantial number of these planets have been uncovered by the TESS mission. In this work we report the dis…

Time-resolved JWST Retrieval Analysis of the Coldest Brown Dwarf: Temperature and Chemical Variations in WISE 0855-07

Harshil Kothari, Caroline V. Morley, Brittany E. Miles +12

WISE J0855-07 is the coldest known brown dwarf (estimated Teff~250 K), offering a rare opportunity to probe atmospheric physics in the temperature and mass regime that overlaps dir…

TNFlow: Amortized Posterior Inference for Trans-Neptunian Object Surface Composition

Agastya Gaur, Cristina M. Dalle Ore, Alessandra Ricca

We present TNFlow, a transformer and normalizing flow architecture for inferring the surface composition of Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) from their reflectance spectra. TNFlow is…

Asteroid Disruption and Deflection Simulations for Multi-Modal Planetary Defense

Alexander N. Cohen, Philip Lubin, Darrel Robertson +7

Planetary defense from asteroids via deflective means alone does not offer viable solutions in terminal scenarios where there is little warning time before impact. The PI method of…

Optical and acoustic ground effects simulations from terminal defense asteroid disruption via the PI method

Brin Bailey, Alexander N. Cohen, Philip Lubin +5

Our simulations suggest that PI ("Pulverize It"), a NASA Phase II NIAC study, is an effective multi-modal approach for planetary defense that can operate in extremely short interdi…
