HD 715 b, a Warm Jupiter Orbiting a Massive Subgiant Discovered from a Single TESS Transit
Alexander Venner, Robert A. Wittenmyer, Andrew Vanderburg +23
Transiting Warm Jupiters orbiting bright stars are scarcely known, but a substantial number of these planets have been uncovered by the TESS mission. In this work we report the dis…
Optimal Photon Counting with Fast, Low Noise Astronomical Imagers
Jack T. Dinsmore, Christopher Layden, Roger W. Romani +9
Measuring rapid astrophysical phenomena requires many short exposures, which suffer from repeated read noise. A variety of recent technologies are achieving sub-electron read noise…
The Lightspeed project: high-speed, ultra-low read noise imaging and polarimetry for the Magellan telescopes
Christopher Layden, Kevin Burdge, John J. Piotrowski +12
Lightspeed will be an ultra-fast (> kHz), ultra-low read noise, multicolor (ugriz + IR) imager for the 6.5 meter Magellan Clay telescope. In a single-channel configuration, Lightsp…
Discovery of an Inflated Hot Neptune and Its Formation from Jovian Mass Loss
Grant C. Weldon, Samuel W. Yee, Bradley M. S. Hansen +17
The production of Neptune-like planets with orbital periods of 3--6 days is challenging for conventional models of high-eccentricity migration. We present the discovery and charact…
Changes in Pluto's Atmosphere Based on Stellar Occultation Data from 2017 to 2023
Amanda A. Sickafoose, Michael J. Person, Carlos A. Zuluaga +14
Pluto's tenuous atmosphere has bar-level pressure and is composed primarily of , with a variable haze. Its eccentric orbit combined with high obliquity leads to si…
The T16 Planet Hunt: 10,000 New Planet Candidates from TESS Cycle 1 and the Confirmation of a Hot Jupiter Around TIC 183374187
Joshua T. Roth, Joel D. Hartman, Gáspár Á. Bakos +12
The T16 project has produced a uniformly detrended and systematics-corrected set of 83,717,159 TESS Cycle 1 full-frame image light curves for stars observed by TESS in its primary…
A Century of Radial Velocity and Astrometric Monitoring of 70 Oph AB: New PFS Data and Constraints on Planetary Companions
Yiting Li, Michael R. Meyer, Skylar D'Angiolillo +29
At a distance of 5.1 pc, the 70 Oph AB binary star system is one of the most favorable targets for future direct imaging and astrometry missions surveying mature, terrestrial plane…
An eclipsing 8.56 minute orbital period mass-transferring binary
Emma T. Chickles, Joheen Chakraborty, Kevin B. Burdge +34
We report the discovery of ATLAS J101342.5-451656.8 (hereafter ATLAS J1013-4516), an 8.56 minute orbital period mass transferring AM Canum Venaticorum binary with mean Gaia magnitu…
proto-Lightspeed: a high-speed, ultra-low read noise imager on the Magellan Clay Telescope
Christopher Layden, Kevin Burdge, Gabor Furesz +9
proto-Lightspeed is a new instrument that has been commissioned on the Nasmyth East port of the Magellan Clay Telescope at Las Campanas Observatory to deliver high-speed optical im…
