Spin-Orbit Alignment of Two Neptune-size Planets Younger than 500 Myr: TOI-560 b and TOI-5082 b

Elina Y. Zhang, Fei Dai, Andrew W. Howard +25

Stellar obliquity measurements provide a direct probe of planetary system dynamics, but remain sparse for Neptune-size planets, particularly at young ages. We present Rossiter-McLa…

Stellar Obliquity of the Ultra-Short-Period Planet System HD 93963

Huan-Yu Teng, Fei Dai, Andrew W. Howard +24

We report an observation of the Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM) effect of the transiting planet HD 93963 Ac, a mini-Neptune planet orbiting a G0-type star with an orbital period of $P_{\r…

TOI-6324b: An Earth-Mass Ultra-Short-Period Planet Transiting a Nearby M Dwarf

Rena A. Lee, Fei Dai, Andrew W. Howard +71

We report the confirmation of TOI-6324 b, an Earth-sized (1.059 0.041 R) ultra-short-period (USP) planet orbiting a nearby (20 pc) M dwarf. Using the newly com…

Planet Masses, Radii, and Orbits from NASA's K2 Mission

Andrew W. Howard, Evan Sinukoff, Sarah Blunt +50

We report the masses, sizes, and orbital properties of 86 planets orbiting 55 stars observed by NASA's K2 Mission with follow-up Doppler measurements by the HIRES spectrometer at t…

The TESS-Keck Survey XXIV: Outer Giants may be More Prevalent in the Presence of Inner Small Planets

Judah Van Zandt, Erik A. Petigura, Jack Lubin +38

We present the results of the Distant Giants Survey, a three-year radial velocity (RV) campaign to search for wide-separation giant planets orbiting Sun-like stars known to host an…

The Compositions of Rocky Planets in Close-in Orbits Tend to be Earth-Like

Casey L. Brinkman, Lauren M. Weiss, Daniel Huber +54

Hundreds of exoplanets between 1-1.8 times the size of the Earth have been discovered on close in orbits. However, these planets show such a diversity in densities that some appear…
