Observations of Exocomets

Judith Korth, Azib Norazman, Raphäel Bendahan-West +6

Active small bodies in extrasolar systems, the extrasolar analogues of Solar System comets, provide insights into the orbital evolution and physical processes shaping planetary sys…

Thermal Emission and Confirmation of the Frigid White Dwarf Exoplanet WD 1856+534b

Mary Anne Limbach, Andrew Vanderburg, Ryan J. MacDonald +12

We report the detection of thermal emission from and confirm the planetary nature of WD 1856+534b, the first transiting planet known to orbit a white dwarf star. Observations with…

The MIRI Exoplanets Orbiting White Dwarfs (MEOW) Survey: Mid-Infrared Excess Reveals a Giant Planet Candidate around a Nearby White Dwarf

Mary Anne Limbach, Andrew Vanderburg, Alexander Venner +17

The MIRI Exoplanets Orbiting White dwarfs (MEOW) Survey is a cycle 2 JWST program to search for exoplanets around dozens of nearby white dwarfs via infrared excess and direct imagi…

Gemini/GMOS Transmission Spectroscopy of the Grazing Planet Candidate WD 1856+534 b

Siyi Xu, Hannah Diamond-Lowe, Ryan J. MacDonald +12

WD 1856+534 b is a Jupiter-sized, cool giant planet candidate transiting the white dwarf WD 1856+534. Here, we report an optical transmission spectrum of WD 1856+534 b obtained fro…

Host-star and exoplanet compositions: a pilot study usinga wide binary with a polluted white dwarf

Amy Bonsor, Paula Jofre, Oliver Shorttle +3

Planets and stars ultimately form out of the collapse of the same cloud of gas. Whilst planets, and planetary bodies, readily loose volatiles, a common hypothesis is that they reta…

Near-infrared variability in dusty white dwarfs: tracing the accretion of planetary material

Laura K. Rogers, Siyi Xu, Amy Bonsor +4

The inwards scattering of planetesimals towards white dwarfs is expected to be a stochastic process with variability on human time-scales. The planetesimals tidally disrupt at the…
