Cool Jupiters greatly outnumber their toasty siblings: Occurrence rates from the Anglo-Australian Planet Search

Robert A. Wittenmyer, Songhu Wang, Jonathan Horner +8

Our understanding of planetary systems different to our own has grown dramatically in the past 30 years. However, our efforts to ascertain the degree to which the Solar system is a…

KELT-25b and KELT-26b: A Hot Jupiter and a Substellar Companion Transiting Young A-stars Observed by TESS

Romy Rodríguez Martínez, B. Scott Gaudi, Joseph E. Rodriguez +89

We present the discoveries of KELT-25b (TIC 65412605, TOI-626.01) and KELT-26b (TIC 160708862, TOI-1337.01), two transiting companions orbiting relatively bright, early A-stars. Th…

The Pan-Pacific Planet Search. VIII. Complete results and the occurrence rate of planets around low-luminosity giants

Robert A. Wittenmyer, R. P. Butler, Jonathan Horner +6

Our knowledge of the populations and occurrence rates of planets orbiting evolved intermediate-mass stars lags behind that for solar-type stars by at least a decade. Some radial ve…

TOI-677 b: A Warm Jupiter (P=11.2d) on an eccentric orbit transiting a late F-type star

Andrés Jordán, Rafael Brahm, Néstor Espinoza +46

We report the discovery of TOI-677 b, first identified as a candidate in light curves obtained within Sectors 9 and 10 of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission a…

Giant planet occurrence within 0.2 AU of low-luminosity red giant branch stars with K2

Samuel K. Grunblatt, Daniel Huber, Eric Gaidos +3

Every Sun-like star will eventually evolve into a red giant, a transition which can profoundly affect the evolution of a surrounding planetary system. The timescale of dynamical pl…

Quantifying the Influence of Jupiter on the Earth's Orbital Cycles

Jonathan Horner, Pam Vervoort, Stephen R. Kane +4

A wealth of Earth-sized exoplanets will be discovered in the coming years, proving a large pool of candidates from which the targets for the search for life beyond the Solar system…

The HD 181433 Planetary System: Dynamics and a New Orbital Solution

Jonathan Horner, Robert A Wittenmyer, Duncan J Wright +7

We present a detailed analysis of the orbital stability of the HD 181433 planetary system, finding it to exhibit strong dynamical instability across a wide range of orbital eccentr…

Analysis of putative exoplanetary signatures found in light curves of two sdBV stars observed by Kepler

A. Blokesz, J. Krzesinski, L. Kedziora-Chudczer

. We investigate the validity of the claim that invokes two extreme exoplanetary system candidates around the pulsating B-type subdwarfs KIC 10001893 and KIC 5807616…

Detection of Planetary and Stellar Companions to Neighboring Stars via a Combination of Radial Velocity and Direct Imaging Techniques

Stephen R. Kane, Paul A. Dalba, Zhexing Li +13

The sensitivity of radial velocity (RV) surveys for exoplanet detection are extending to increasingly long orbital periods, where companions with periods of several years are now b…

TESS Spots a Compact System of Super-Earths around the Naked-Eye Star HR 858

Andrew Vanderburg, Chelsea X. Huang, Joseph E. Rodriguez +48

Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) observations have revealed a compact multi-planet system around the sixth-magnitude star HR 858 (TIC 178155732, TOI 396), located 32 pa…

Truly eccentric. II. When can two circular planets mimic a single eccentric orbit?

Robert A. Wittenmyer, Christoph Bergmann, Jonathan Horner +2

When, in the course of searching for exoplanets, sparse sampling and noisy data make it necessary to disentangle possible solutions to the observations, one must consider the possi…

Truly eccentric. I. Revisiting eight single-eccentric planetary systems

Robert A. Wittenmyer, Jake T. Clark, Jinglin Zhao +3

We examine eight known single-eccentric planetary systems in light of recently released large data archives and new analysis techniques. For four of these systems (HD 7449, HD 6521…

A Hot Saturn Orbiting An Oscillating Late Subgiant Discovered by TESS

Daniel Huber, William J. Chaplin, Ashley Chontos +139

We present the discovery of TOI-197.01, the first transiting planet identified by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) for which asteroseismology of the host star is po…
