Astrometry and Occultation predictions to Trans-Neptunian and Centaur Objects observed within the Dark Energy Survey
Martin Banda-Huarca, Julio Camargo, Josselin Desmars +59
Transneptunian objects (TNOs) are a source of invaluable information to access the history and evolution of the outer solar system. However, observing these faint objects is a diff…
A candidate super-Earth planet orbiting near the snow line of Barnard's star
I. Ribas, M. Tuomi, A. Reiners +60
At a distance of 1.8 parsecs, Barnard's star (Gl 699) is a red dwarf with the largest apparent motion of any known stellar object. It is the closest single star to the Sun, second…
Photoevaporative Flows From Exoplanet Atmospheres: A 3-D Radiative Hydrodynamic Parameter Study
Alex Debrecht, Jonathan Carroll-Nellenback, Adam Frank +3
The photoionization-driven evaporation of planetary atmospheres has emerged as a potentially fundamental process for planets on short period orbits. While 1-D studies have proven t…
Morphology of Hydrodynamic Winds: A Study of Planetary Winds in Stellar Environments
John R. McCann, Ruth A. Murray-Clay, Kaitlin Kratter +1
Bathed in intense ionizing radiation, close-in gaseous planets undergo hydrodynamic atmospheric escape, which ejects the upper extent of their atmospheres into the interplanetary m…
Methane in Analogs of Young Directly Imaged Exoplanets
Brittany E. Miles, Andrew J. Skemer, Travis S. Barman +2
We present detections of methane in R of 1300, L band spectra of VHS 1256 b and PSO 318.5, two low gravity, red, late L dwarfs that share the same colors as the HR 8799 plane…
Analysis of Neptune's 2017 Bright Equatorial Storm
Edward Molter, Imke de Pater, Statia Luszcz-Cook +22
We report the discovery of a large (8500 km diameter) infrared-bright storm at Neptune's equator in June 2017. We tracked the storm over a period of 7 months with high-cadenc…
HD2685 b: A Hot-Jupiter orbiting an early F-type star detected by TESS
M. I. Jones, R. Brahm, N. Espinoza +40
We report on the confirmation of a transiting giant planet around the relatively hot (Teff = 6801 56 K) star HD2685, whose transit signal was detected in Sector 1 data of the…
Disentangling the planet from the star in late type M dwarfs: A case study of TRAPPIST-1g
Hannah R. Wakeford, Nikole K. Lewis, Julia Fowler +10
The atmospheres of late M stars represent a significant challenge in the characterization of any transiting exoplanets due to the presence of strong molecular features in the stell…
Detecting Water In the atmosphere of HR 8799 c with L-band High Dispersion Spectroscopy Aided By Adaptive Optics
Ji Wang, Dimitri Mawet, Jonathan J. Fortney +3
High dispersion spectroscopy of brown dwarfs and exoplanets enables exciting science cases, e.g., mapping surface inhomogeneity and measuring spin rate. Here, we present band o…
Connecting Giant Planet Atmosphere and Interior Modeling: Constraints on Atmospheric Metal Enrichment
Daniel P. Thorngren, Jonathan J. Fortney
Atmospheric characterization through spectroscopic analysis, an essential tool of modern exoplanet science, can benefit significantly from the context provided by interior structur…
A Jovian planet in an eccentric 11.5 day orbit around HD1397 discovered by TESS
L. D. Nielsen, F. Bouchy, O. Turner +36
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite TESS has begun a new age of exoplanet discoveries around bright host stars. We present the discovery of HD 1397b (TOI-120.01), a giant pla…
