The TESS-Keck Survey. XVI. Mass Measurements for 12 Planets in Eight Systems
Joseph M. Akana Murphy, Natalie M. Batalha, Nicholas Scarsdale +44
With JWST's successful deployment and unexpectedly high fuel reserves, measuring the masses of sub-Neptunes transiting bright, nearby stars will soon become the bottleneck for char…
The Scientific Context of WFIRST Microlensing in the 2020s
Jennifer Yee, Rachel Akeson, Jay Anderson +23
[abridged] WFIRST is uniquely capable of finding planets with masses as small as Mars at separations comparable to Jupiter, i.e., beyond the current ice lines of their stars. These…
Wide-Orbit Exoplanet Demographics
David P. Bennett, Rachel Akeson, Yann Alibert +41
The Kepler, K2 and TESS transit surveys are revolutionizing our understanding of planets orbiting close to their host stars and our understanding of exoplanet systems in general, b…
Masses and Distances of Planetary Microlens Systems with High Angular Resolution Imaging
Aparna Bhattacharya, Rachel Akeson, Jay Anderson +33
Microlensing is the only method that can detect and measure mass of wide orbit, low mass, solar system analog exoplanets. Mass measurements of such planets would yield massive scie…
The WFIRST Exoplanet Microlensing Survey
David P. Bennett, Rachel Akeson, Jay Anderson +71
The Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) was the top ranked large space mission in the 2010 New Worlds, New Horizons decadal survey, and it was formed by merging the scien…
White Paper: Exoplanetary Microlensing from the Ground in the 2020s
Jennifer C. Yee, Jay Anderson, Rachel Akeson +25
Microlensing can access planet populations that no other method can probe: cold wide-orbit planets beyond the snow line, planets in both the Galactic bulge and disk, and free float…
