Searching for GEMS: The Occurrence of Giant Planets orbiting M-dwarfs within 100 pc

Rowen I. Glusman, Caleb I. Cañas, Shubham Kanodia +30

We present results from a systematic search for transiting short-period Giant Exoplanets around M-dwarf Stars (GEMS; days, ) within a distance-limi…

TOI-1696 and TOI-2136: Constraining the Masses of Two Mini-Neptunes with HPF

Corey Beard, Paul Robertson, Shubham Kanodia +29

We present the validation of two planets orbiting M dwarfs, TOI-1696b and TOI-2136b. Both planets are mini-Neptunes orbiting nearby stars, making them promising prospects for atmos…

High resolution near-infrared spectroscopy of a flare around the ultracool dwarf vB 10

Shubham Kanodia, Lawrence W. Ramsey, Marissa Maney +20

We present high-resolution observations of a flaring event in the M8 dwarf vB 10 using the near-infrared Habitable zone Planet Finder (HPF) spectrograph on the Hobby Eberly Telesco…

The Warm Neptune GJ 3470b has a Polar Orbit

Gudmundur Stefansson, Suvrath Mahadevan, Cristobal Petrovich +34

The warm Neptune GJ 3470b transits a nearby (pc) bright slowly rotating M1.5-dwarf star. Using spectroscopic observations during two transits with the newly commissioned NEID…

A Search for Planetary Metastable Helium Absorption in the V1298 Tau System

Shreyas Vissapragada, Guðmundur Stefánsson, Michael Greklek-McKeon +28

Early in their lives, planets endure extreme amounts of ionizing radiation from their host stars. For planets with primordial hydrogen and helium-rich envelopes, this can lead to s…

TOI-532b: The Habitable-zone Planet Finder confirms a Large Super Neptune in the Neptune Desert orbiting a metal-rich M dwarf host

Shubham Kanodia, Gudmundur Stefansson, Caleb I. Canas +30

We confirm the planetary nature of TOI-532b, using a combination of precise near-infrared radial velocities with the Habitable-zone Planet Finder, TESS light curves, ground based p…

The Habitable-zone Planet Finder Reveals A High Mass and a Low Obliquity for the Young Neptune K2-25b

Gudmundur Stefansson, Suvrath Mahadevan, Marissa Maney +27

Using radial-velocity data from the Habitable-zone Planet Finder, we have measured the mass of the Neptune-sized planet K2-25b, as well as the obliquity of its M4.5-dwarf host star…

A Mini-Neptune and a Venus-Zone Planet in the Radius Valley Orbiting the Nearby M2-dwarf TOI-1266: Validation with the Habitable-zone Planet Finder

Gudmundur Stefansson, Ravi Kopparapu, Andrea Lin +26

We report on the validation of two planets orbiting the nearby (36pc) M2 dwarf TOI-1266 observed by the TESS mission. The inner planet is sub-Neptune-sized ($R=2.46 \pm 0.08 R_\opl…

A sub-Neptune sized planet transiting the M2.5-dwarf G 9-40: Validation with the Habitable-zone Planet Finder

Gudmundur Stefansson, Caleb Cañas, John Wisniewski +32

We validate the discovery of a 2 Earth radii sub-Neptune-size planet around the nearby high proper motion M2.5-dwarf G 9-40 (EPIC 212048748), using high-precision near-infrared (NI…

First discovery of trans-iron elements in a DAO-type white dwarf (BD)

L. Löbling, M. A. Maney, T. Rauch +4

We have identified 484 lines of the trans-iron elements (TIEs) Zn, Ga, Ge, Se, Br, Kr, Sr, Zr, Mo, In, Te, I, Xe, and Ba, for the first time in the ultraviolet spectrum of a DAO-ty…
