Peekaboo: Secular Resonances from Evolving Stellar Oblateness Impede Transit Detection

Thea Faridani, Smadar Naoz, Gongjie Li +2

Secular resonances in exoplanet systems occur when two or more planets have commensurabilities in the precession rates of their orbital elements, causing an exchange of angular mom…

More Likely Than You Think: Inclination-Driving Secular Resonances are Common in Known Exoplanet Systems

Thea Faridani, Smadar Naoz, Gongjie Li +2

Multi-planet systems face significant challenges to detection. For example, further orbiting planets have reduced signal-to-noise ratio in radial velocity detection methods, and sm…

Planet Hunters TESS V: a planetary system around a binary star, including a mini-Neptune in the habitable zone

Nora L. Eisner, Samuel K. Grunblatt, Oscar Barragán +61

We report on the discovery and validation of a transiting long-period mini-Neptune orbiting a bright (V = 9.0 mag) G dwarf (TOI 4633; R = 1.05 RSun, M = 1.10 MSun). The planet was…

Let's Sweep: The Effect of Evolving on the Resonant Structure of a Three-Planet System

Thea H. Faridani, Smadar Naoz, Gongjie Li +1

Short and ultra-short planets are a peculiar type of exoplanets with periods as short as a few days or less. Although it is challenging to detect them, already several are observed…

Hiding Planets Near and Far: The Parameter Space of Hidden Companions for Known Planetary Systems

Thea Faridani, Smadar Naoz, Lingfeng Wei +1

Recent ground and space-based observations show that stars with multiple planets are common in the galaxy. Most of these observational methods are biased toward detecting large pla…

Relativistic Dynamical Stability Criterion of Multi-Planet Systems with a Distant Companion

Lingfeng Wei, Smadar Naoz, Thea Faridani +1

Multi-planetary systems are prevalent in our Galaxy. The long-term stability of such systems may be disrupted if a distant inclined companion excites the eccentricity and inclinati…

Nonbinary Systems: Looking Towards the Future of Gender Equity in Planetary Science

Beck E. Strauss, Schuyler R. Borges, Thea Faridani +9

Gender equity remains a major issue facing the field of planetary science, and there is broad interest in addressing gender disparities within space science and related disciplines…
