A 38 Million Year Old Neptune-Sized Planet in the Kepler Field

L. G. Bouma, J. L. Curtis, K. Masuda +12

Kepler 1627A is a G8V star previously known to host a 3.8 Earth-radius planet on a 7.2 day orbit. The star was observed by the Kepler space telescope because it is nearby (d=329 pc…

The TESS Mission Target Selection Procedure

Michael Fausnaugh, Ed Morgan, Roland Vanderspek +61

We describe the target selection procedure by which stars are selected for 2-minute and 20-second observations by TESS. We first list the technical requirements of the TESS instrum…

Rotation and Lithium Confirmation of a 500 Parsec Halo for the Open Cluster NGC 2516

L. G. Bouma, J. L. Curtis, J. D. Hartman +2

Recent analyses of the Gaia data have identified diffuse stellar populations surrounding nearby open clusters. It is important to verify that these "halos", "tails", and "strings"…

Evidence for Centrifugal Breakout around the Young M Dwarf TIC 234284556

Elsa K. Palumbo, Benjamin T. Montet, Adina D. Feinstein +5

Magnetospheric clouds have been proposed as explanations for depth-varying dips in the phased light curves of young, magnetically active stars such as Ori E and RIK-210. Howeve…

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…

exoplanet: Gradient-based probabilistic inference for exoplanet data & other astronomical time series

Daniel Foreman-Mackey, Rodrigo Luger, Eric Agol +13

"exoplanet" is a toolkit for probabilistic modeling of astronomical time series data, with a focus on observations of exoplanets, using PyMC3 (Salvatier et al., 2016). PyMC3 is a f…
