Early Exploration of the Scientific Discovery Space for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Courtney D. Dressing, Danica Adams, Evelyne Alecian +324
The paper summarizes 70 science cases for the proposed NASA Habitable Worlds Observatory, outlining the observational needs across four scientific pillars and detailing required ca…
JWST Transmission Spectroscopy of TOI-3235 b: Challenges in Constraining Giant Planet Atmospheres Around M Dwarfs Amid Stellar Contamination
Zoe Ko, Néstor Espinoza, Andrés Jordán +7
Giant planets orbiting low-mass M dwarfs challenge current planet formation theories, which predict that such planets are unlikely to form. Characterizing their atmospheres can pro…
Companion Architectures of Sub-Saturns: Distinct Migration Pathways Across the Neptunian Landscape
Luis Thomas, Louise D. Nielsen, Alex J. Cridland +2
Close-in sub-Saturns (4 - 8.5 R) are depleted in the Neptunian desert, accumulate in a narrow overdensity near P = 3.2 - 5.7 d (the Neptunian ridge), and thin out into the…
A Warm Massive Pair of Planets around TOI-1232 Revealed with Transit-timing Variations and Doppler Spectroscopy
Deyan P. Mihaylov, Jan Eberhardt, Trifon Trifonov +32
TOI-1232 is a G-dwarf star with a mass of , a radius of , and slightly higher metallicity than solar of Fe/H = .…
Two warm sub-Saturn mass planets identified from the TESS Full Frame Images
Felipe I. Rojas, Rafael Brahm, Andrés Jordán +47
Context. Characterization of warm giants is crucial to constrain giant planet formation and evolution. Measuring the mass and radius of these planets, combined with their moderated…
The New Generation Planetary Population Synthesis (NGPPS). VII. Statistical comparison with the HARPS/Coralie survey
Alexandre Emsenhuber, Christoph Mordasini, Michel Mayor +8
We seek to quantify the fidelity with which modern population syntheses reproduce observations in view of their use as predictive tools. We compared synthetic populations from the…
