Scientific Domain Knowledge Improves Exoplanet Transit Classification with Deep Learning
Megan Ansdell, Yani Ioannou, Hugh P. Osborn +5
Space-based missions such as Kepler, and soon TESS, provide large datasets that must be analyzed efficiently and systematically. Recent work by Shallue & Vanderburg (2018) successf…
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…
Maximum Angular Separation Epochs for Exoplanet Imaging Observations
Stephen R. Kane, Tiffany Meshkat, Margaret C. Turnbull
Direct imaging of exoplanets presents both significant challenges and significant gains. The advantages primarily lie in receiving emitted and, with future instruments, reflected p…
Predicted Yield of Transits of Known Radial Velocity Exoplanets from the TESS Primary and Extended Missions
Paul A. Dalba, Stephen R. Kane, Thomas Barclay +5
Radial velocity (RV) surveys have detected hundreds of exoplanets through their gravitational interactions with their host stars. Some will be transiting, but most lack sufficient…
TESS full orbital phase curve of the WASP-18b system
Avi Shporer, Ian Wong, Chelsea X. Huang +18
We present a visible-light full orbital phase curve of the transiting planet WASP-18b measured by the TESS Mission. The phase curve includes the transit, secondary eclipse, and sin…
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…
(16) Psyche: A mesosiderite-like asteroid?
M. Viikinkoski, P. Vernazza, J. Hanus +35
Asteroid (16) Psyche is the target of the NASA Psyche mission. It is considered one of the few main-belt bodies that could be an exposed proto-planetary metallic core and that woul…
HD 202772A B: A Transiting Hot Jupiter Around A Bright, Mildly Evolved Star In A Visual Binary Discovered By Tess
Songhu Wang, Matias Jones, Avi Shporer +52
We report the first confirmation of a hot Jupiter discovered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission: HD 202772A b. The transit signal was detected in the data…
Measuring the D/H Ratios of Exoplanets and Brown Dwarfs
Caroline V. Morley, Andrew J. Skemer, Brittany E. Miles +5
The relative abundance of deuterium and hydrogen is a potent tracer of planet formation and evolution. Jupiter and Saturn have protosolar atmospheric D/H ratios, a relic of substan…
Secular Resonance Between Iapetus and the Giant Planets
Matija Ćuk, Luke Dones, David Nesvorný +1
Using numerical integrations, we find that the orbital eccentricity of Saturn's moon Iapetus undergoes prominent multi-Myr oscillations. We identify the responsible resonant argume…
TESS Discovery of an ultra-short-period planet around the nearby M dwarf LHS 3844
Roland Vanderspek, Chelsea X. Huang, Andrew Vanderburg +45
Data from the newly-commissioned \textit{Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite} (TESS) has revealed a "hot Earth" around LHS 3844, an M dwarf located 15 pc away. The planet has a r…
Dynamical Constraints on the HR 8799 Planets with GPI
Jason J. Wang, James R. Graham, Rebekah Dawson +52
The HR 8799 system uniquely harbors four young super-Jupiters whose orbits can provide insights into the system's dynamical history and constrain the masses of the planets themselv…
Physical properties and optical-infrared transmission spectrum of the giant planet XO-1b
John Southworth, J. Tregloan-Reed, A. Pinhas +3
We present ten high-precision light curves of four transits in the XO-1 planetary system, obtained using , , , redshifted H, and filters. We use these to measur…
TESS Discovery of a Transiting Super-Earth in the Mensae System
Chelsea X. Huang, Jennifer Burt, Andrew Vanderburg +45
We report the detection of a transiting planet around Mensae (HD 39091), using data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). The solar-type host star is unusually…
Great Expectations: Plans and Predictions for New Horizons Encounter with Kuiper Belt Object 2014 MU69 ('Ultima Thule')
Jeffrey M. Moore, William B. McKinnon, Dale P. Cruikshank +31
The New Horizons encounter with the cold classical Kuiper Belt object (KBO) 2014 MU69 (informally named 'Ultima Thule,' hereafter Ultima) on 1 January 2019 will be the first time a…
Temperature, Mass and Turbulence: A Spatially Resolved Multi-Band Non-LTE Analysis of CS in TW~Hya
Richard Teague, Thomas Henning, Stephane Guilloteau +6
Observations of multiple rotational transitions from a single molecule allow for unparalleled constraints on the physical conditions of the emitting region. We present an analysis…
