Destruction of "Peas in a Pod?" A Candidate Multi-planet System Around the Nearby, Bright Star, HD208487

Rafael I. Rubenstein, James S. Jenkins, Pablo A. Peña R. +15

We re-investigate the HD208487 system to test the reality of the proposed HD208487c world. We also search for additional companions using applied Bayesian statistics and 15+ years…

Precovery Observations of 3I/ATLAS from TESS Suggests Possible Distant Activity

Adina D. Feinstein, John W. Noonan, Darryl Z. Seligman

3I/ATLAS is the third macroscopic interstellar object detected traversing the Solar System. Since its initial discovery on UT 01 July 2025, hundreds of hours on a range of observat…

Flares on TRAPPIST-1 reveal the spectrum of magnetic features on its surface

Valeriy Vasilyev, Nadiia Kostogryz, Alexander I. Shapiro +11

TRAPPIST-1 is an M8 dwarf hosting seven known exoplanets and is currently one of the most frequently observed targets of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). However, it is notor…

Discovery and Preliminary Characterization of a Third Interstellar Object: 3I/ATLAS

Darryl Z. Seligman, Marco Micheli, Davide Farnocchia +44

We report initial observations aimed at the characterization of a third interstellar object. This object, 3I/ATLAS or C/2025 N1 (ATLAS), was discovered on 2025 July 1 UT and has an…

A metal-poor atmosphere with a hot interior for a young sub-Neptune progenitor: JWST/NIRSpec transmission spectrum of V1298 Tau b

Saugata Barat, Jean-Michel Désert, Sagnick Mukherjee +19

We present the JWST/NIRSpec G395H transmission spectrum of the young (10 - 20 Myr old) transiting planet V1298 Tau b (9.85+/-0.35 Re, Teq=670K). Combined HST and JWST observations…

On Linking Planet Formation Models, Protoplanetary Disk Properties, and Mature Gas Giant Exoplanet Atmospheres

Adina D. Feinstein, Richard A. Booth, Jennifer B. Bergner +34

Measuring a single elemental ratio (e.g., carbon-to-oxygen) provides insufficient information for understanding the formation mechanisms and evolution that affect our observations…

Far-ultraviolet flares and variability of the young M dwarf AU Mic: a non-detection of planet c in transit at Lyman-alpha

Keighley E. Rockcliffe, Elisabeth R. Newton, Allison Youngblood +8

Atmospheric escape's potential to shape the exoplanet population motivates detailed observations of systems actively undergoing escape. AU Mic is a young and active M dwarf hosting…

Challenges in the detection of gases in exoplanet atmospheres

Luis Welbanks, Matthew C. Nixon, Peter McGill +12

Claims of detections of gases in exoplanet atmospheres often rely on comparisons between models including and excluding specific chemical species. However, the space of molecular c…
