ExoMiner: A Highly Accurate and Explainable Deep Learning Classifier that Validates 301 New Exoplanets
Hamed Valizadegan, Miguel Martinho, Laurent S. Wilkens +10
The kepler and TESS missions have generated over 100,000 potential transit signals that must be processed in order to create a catalog of planet candidates. During the last few yea…
Systematic KMTNet Planetary Anomaly Search, Paper III: One Wide-Orbit Planet And Two Stellar Binaries
Hanyue Wang, Weicheng Zang, Wei Zhu +36
Only a few wide-orbit planets around old stars have been detected, which limits our statistical understanding of this planet population. Following the systematic search for planeta…
TOI-2076 and TOI-1807: Two young, comoving planetary systems within 50 pc identified by TESS that are ideal candidates for further follow-up
Christina Hedges, Alex Hughes, Steven Giacalone +42
We report the discovery of two planetary systems around comoving stars; TOI-2076 (TIC 27491137) and TOI-1807 (TIC 180695581). TOI-2076 is a nearby (41.9 pc) multi-planetary system…
Calibration and Performance of the REgolith X-Ray Imaging Spectrometer (REXIS) Aboard NASA's OSIRIS-REx Mission to Bennu
Jaesub Hong, Richard P. Binzel, Branden Allen +23
The REgolith X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (REXIS) instrument on board NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission to the asteroid Bennu is a Class-D student collaboration experiment designed to detect…
TOI-3362b: A Proto-Hot Jupiter Undergoing High-Eccentricity Tidal Migration
Jiayin Dong, Chelsea X. Huang, George Zhou +39
High-eccentricity tidal migration is a possible way for giant planets to be emplaced in short-period orbits. If it commonly operates, one would expect to catch proto-Hot Jupiters o…
Preliminary Evidence That Protoplanetary Disks Eject More Mass Than They Retain
Amir Siraj, Abraham Loeb
If interstellar objects originate in protoplanetary disks, they can be used to calibrate the fraction of mass that such disks eject. The discoveries of interstellar objects 1I/`Oum…
Multiple moist climate equilibrium states on arid rocky M-dwarf planets: A last-saturation tracer analysis
Feng Ding, Robin D. Wordsworth
Terrestrial-type exoplanets orbiting nearby red dwarf stars (M dwarfs) are the first potentially habitable exoplanets suitable for atmospheric characterization in the near future.…
TOI-942b: A Prograde Neptune in a ~60 Myr old Multi-transiting System
Christopher P. Wirth, George Zhou, Samuel N. Quinn +8
Mapping the orbital obliquity distribution of young planets is one avenue towards understanding mechanisms that sculpt the architectures of planetary systems. TOI-942 is a young fi…
Reply to Desch et al. (2021) on "Breakup of a long-period comet as the origin of the dinosaur extinction"
Amir Siraj, Abraham Loeb
We reply to criticisms by Desch et al. (2021) regarding our Scientific Reports paper, "Breakup of a long-period comet as the origin of the dinosaur extinction." The background impa…
Detectability of Artificial Lights from Proxima b
Elisa Tabor, Abraham Loeb
We investigate the possibility of detecting artificial lights from Proxima b's dark side by computing light curves from the planet and its host star. The two different scenarios we…
The sub-Neptune desert and its dependence on stellar type: Controlled by lifetime X-ray irradiation
George D. McDonald, Laura Kreidberg, Eric Lopez
Short-period sub-Neptunes with substantial volatile envelopes are among the most common type of known exoplanets. However, recent studies of the Kepler population have suggested a…
Towers on the Peaks of Eternal Light: Quantifying the Available Solar Power
Amia Ross, Sephora Ruppert, Philipp Gläser +1
The Peaks of Eternal Light (PELs), that are largely unshaded regions mostly at the lunar south pole, have been suggested as a source of solar power for mining the water and other v…
Breakup of a Long-Period Comet as the Origin of the Dinosaur Extinction
Amir Siraj, Abraham Loeb
The origin of the Chicxulub impactor, which is attributed as the cause of the K/T mass extinction event, is an unsolved puzzle. The background impact rates of main-belt asteroids a…
Theoretical constraints imposed by gradient detection and dispersal on microbial size in astrobiological environments
Manasvi Lingam
The capacity to sense gradients efficiently and acquire information about the ambient environment confers many advantages like facilitating movement toward nutrient sources or away…
Two Massive Jupiters in Eccentric Orbits from the TESS Full Frame Images
Mma Ikwut-Ukwa, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn +43
We report the discovery of two short-period massive giant planets from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). Both systems, TOI-558 (TIC 207110080) and TOI-559 (TIC 2…
