OrCAS: Origins, Compositions, and Atmospheres of Sub-neptunes. I. Survey Definition
Ian J. M. Crossfield, Alex S. Polanski, Paul Robertson +61
Sub-Neptunes - volatile-rich exoplanets smaller than Neptune - are intrinsically the most common type of planet known. However, the formation and nature of these objects, as well a…
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…
SPORES-HWO. II. Companion Mass Limits and Updated Planet Properties for 120 Future Exoplanet Imaging Targets from 35 yr of Precise Doppler Monitoring
Caleb K. Harada, Courtney D. Dressing, Emma V. Turtelboom +17
A goal of the future Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is to directly image and spectroscopically characterize true Earth-analogs. However, if a large fraction of HWO target stars…
Searching for Additional Planets in TESS Multi-Planet Systems: Testing Empirical Models Based on Kepler Data
Emma V. Turtelboom, Jamie Dietrich, Courtney D. Dressing +1
Multi-planet system architectures are frequently used to constrain possible formation and evolutionary pathways of observed exoplanets. Therefore, understanding the predictive and…
TESS Giants Transiting Giants. VI. Newly Discovered Hot Jupiters Provide Evidence for Efficient Obliquity Damping after the Main Sequence
Nicholas Saunders, Samuel K. Grunblatt, Ashley Chontos +53
The degree of alignment between a star's spin axis and the orbital plane of its planets (the stellar obliquity) is related to interesting and poorly understood processes that occur…
The California Legacy Survey V. Chromospheric Activity Cycles in Main Sequence Stars
Howard Isaacson, Andrew W. Howard, Benjamin Fulton +31
We present optical spectroscopy of 710 solar neighborhood stars collected over twenty years to catalog chromospheric activity and search for stellar activity cycles. The California…
The TESS-Keck Survey XX: 15 New TESS Planets and a Uniform RV Analysis of all Survey Targets
Alex S. Polanski, Jack Lubin, Corey beard +69
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has discovered hundreds of new worlds, with TESS planet candidates now outnumbering the total number of confirmed planets from $\te…
The TESS-Keck Survey. XXII. A sub-Neptune Orbiting TOI-1437
Daria Pidhorodetska, Emily A. Gilbert, Stephen R. Kane +40
Exoplanet discoveries have revealed a dramatic diversity of planet sizes across a vast array of orbital architectures. Sub-Neptunes are of particular interest; due to their absence…
Metallicities and Refined Stellar Parameters for 52 Cool Dwarfs with Transiting Planets and Planet Candidates
Rebecca Gore, Steven Giacalone, Courtney D. Dressing +8
We collected near-infrared spectra of 65 cool stars with the NASA InfraRed Telescope Facility (IRTF) and analyze them to calculate accurate metallicities and stellar parameters. Th…
The TESS-Keck Survey XXI: 13 New Planets and Homogeneous Properties for 21 Subgiant Systems
Ashley Chontos, Daniel Huber, Samuel K. Grunblatt +67
We present a dedicated transit and radial velocity survey of planets orbiting subgiant stars observed by the TESS Mission. Using nights on Keck/HIRES, we confirm and cha…
The TESS-Keck Survey. XII. A Dense 1.8 R Ultra-Short-Period Planet Possibly Clinging to a High-Mean-Molecular-Weight Atmosphere After the First Gyr
Ryan A. Rubenzahl, Fei Dai, Andrew W. Howard +39
The extreme environments of ultra-short-period planets (USPs) make excellent laboratories to study how exoplanets obtain, lose, retain, and/or regain gaseous atmospheres. We presen…
The TESS-Keck Survey. XVIII. A sub-Neptune and spurious long-period signal in the TOI-1751 system
Anmol Desai, Emma V. Turtelboom, Caleb K. Harada +37
We present and confirm TOI-1751 b, a transiting sub-Neptune orbiting a slightly evolved, solar-type, metal-poor star ( K, , V = 9.3 ma…
The TESS-Keck Survey. XIX. A Warm Transiting Sub-Saturn Mass Planet and a non-Transiting Saturn Mass Planet Orbiting a Solar Analog
Michelle L. Hill, Stephen R. Kane, Paul A. Dalba +45
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) continues to dramatically increase the number of known transiting exoplanets, and is optimal for monitoring bright stars amenable t…
