Atmospheric characterization of six ultra-hot Jupiters from -band high-resolution spectroscopy
Luke Finnerty, Michael P. Fitzgerald, Yinzi Xin +27
We present new Keck/KPIC high-resolution spectroscopic detections of three ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs) in the band: WASP-189b (), MASCARA-1b (), and…
Hydrogen airglow from an escaping ultrahot Jupiter atmosphere
Yapeng Zhang, Chenliang Huang, Aaron Householder +17
Intense high-energy irradiation of close-in gaseous exoplanets drives the rapid escape of their atmospheres, fundamentally shaping planetary demographics. While atmospheric loss is…
Chemistry and Isotope Ratios of Substellar Atmospheres in the Pictoris Young Moving Group and Vicinity
Yurou Liu, Yapeng Zhang, Jerry W. Xuan +7
Measuring the chemical and isotopic compositions of gas giants and brown dwarfs provides insights into their formation pathways and birth environments. 2MASS J0249-0557 c is an L2-…
Discovery of a Low-Mass Companion to the Accelerating Star HIP 53005 with Strongly Conflicting Mass Estimates
Taichi Uyama, Thayne Currie, Jerry W. Xuan +22
We present the discovery of a low-mass companion located at 0\farcs{}85 () from the early-type 1.2 Gyr-old star HIP 53005 using direct imagin…
The compositions of the HR 8799 planets reflect accretion of both solids and metal-enriched gas
Jerry W. Xuan, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Yayaati Chachan +24
With four giant planets (, $T_\rm{eff}\sim900-1200$ K) orbiting between 15-70 au, HR 8799 provides an unparalleled testbed for studying giant planet formatio…
A Mass Transferring Brown Dwarf Binary on a 57 Minute Orbit
Samuel Whitebook, Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kevin Burdge +9
Mass transfer in stellar binaries has been well studied in most stellar mass ranges, with the notable exception of ultracool stars and substellar brown dwarfs. We report the discov…
Possible stratospheric emission in the warm Neptune GJ 436 b from high-resolution spectroscopy
Luke Finnerty, Michael P Fitzgerald, Jerry W Xuan +26
We present high spectral resolution band (2.91--3.85 m) observations of the warm Neptune GJ 436 b from Keck II/KPIC. KPIC's single-mode fiber feed reduces the band sky b…
Detecting and Characterizing Companions with a Calibrated Gaia DR2, DR3, and Hipparcos Catalog (G23H)
William Thompson, Dori Blakely, Jerry W. Xuan +16
Gaia DR4 epoch astrometry will enable the detection of thousands of exoplanets through astrometric motion. Here, we present a composite catalog and modeling framework that extracts…
Jupiter-like uniform metal enrichment in a system of multiple giant exoplanets
Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Jerry W. Xuan, Yayaati Chachan +15
The accretion of icy and rocky solids during the formation of a gas giant planet is poorly constrained and challenging to model. Refractory species, like sulfur, are only present i…
Distinct Rotational Evolution of Giant Planets and Brown Dwarf Companions
Chih-Chun Hsu, Jason J. Wang, Jerry W. Xuan +27
We present a rotational velocity (vsini) survey of 32 stellar/substellar objects and giant planets using Keck/KPIC high-resolution spectroscopy, including 6 giant planets (2-7 M$_\…
