Eclipse timing the Milky Way's gravitational potential

Sukanya Chakrabarti, Daniel J. Stevens, Jason Wright +4

We show that a small, but \textit{measurable} shift in the eclipse mid-point time of eclipsing binary (EBs) stars of 0.1 seconds over a decade baseline can be used to direct…

Potential Habitability as a Stellar Property: Effects of Model Uncertainties and Measurement Precision

Noah Tuchow, Jason Wright

Knowledge of a star's evolutionary history combined with estimates of planet occurrence rates allows one to infer its relative quality as a location in the search for biosignatures…

Observing the Sun as a star: Design and early results from the NEID solar feed

Andrea S. J. Lin, Andrew Monson, Suvrath Mahadevan +27

Efforts with extreme-precision radial velocity (EPRV) instruments to detect small-amplitude planets are largely limited, on many timescales, by the effects of stellar variability a…

The California Legacy Survey III. On The Shoulders of (Some) Giants: The Relationship between Inner Small Planets and Outer Massive Planets

Lee J. Rosenthal, Heather A. Knutson, Yayaati Chachan +11

We use a high-precision radial velocity survey of FGKM stars to study the conditional occurrence of two classes of planets: close-in small planets (0.023--1 au, 2--30 Earth masses)…

Search for an alien communication from the Solar System to a neighbor star

Michael Gillon, Artem Burdanov, Jason T. Wright

Under the hypothesis that self-reproducing probes have formed a galactic-scale communication network by direct Gravitationally-Lensed (GL) links between neighboring systems, we ide…

The Warm Neptune GJ 3470b has a Polar Orbit

Gudmundur Stefansson, Suvrath Mahadevan, Cristobal Petrovich +34

The warm Neptune GJ 3470b transits a nearby (pc) bright slowly rotating M1.5-dwarf star. Using spectroscopic observations during two transits with the newly commissioned NEID…
