Validation of 13 Hot and Potentially Terrestrial TESS Planets

Steven Giacalone, Courtney D. Dressing, Christina Hedges +108

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will be able to probe the atmospheres and surface properties of hot, terrestrial planets via emission spectroscopy. We identify 18 potentially…

A Possible Alignment Between the Orbits of Planetary Systems and their Visual Binary Companions

Sam Christian, Andrew Vanderburg, Juliette Becker +111

Astronomers do not have a complete picture of the effects of wide-binary companions (semimajor axes greater than 100 AU) on the formation and evolution of exoplanets. We investigat…

Two Bright M Dwarfs Hosting Ultra-Short-Period Super-Earths with Earth-like Compositions

Teruyuki Hirano, John H. Livingston, Akihiko Fukui +58

We present observations of two bright M dwarfs (TOI-1634 and TOI-1685: ) hosting ultra-short period (USP) planets, identified by the TESS mission. The two stars are simi…

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME) III: a two-planet system in the 400 Myr Ursa Major Group

Andrew W. Mann, Marshall C. Johnson, Andrew Vanderburg +51

Exoplanets can evolve significantly between birth and maturity, as their atmospheres, orbits, and structures are shaped by their environment. Young planets (1 Gyr) offer an oppo…
