Orbital decay candidates reconsidered: WASP-4 b is not decaying and Kepler-1658 b is not a planet
Joshua N. Winn, Guðmundur Stefánsson
The fate of hot Jupiters is thought to be engulfment by their host stars, the outcome of tidal orbital decay. Transit timing has revealed a few systems with apparently shrinking or…

A Small Brown Dwarf in an Aligned Orbit around a Young, Fully-Convective M Star
M. Brady, J. Bean, G. Stefánsson +6
A star's spin-orbit angle can give us insight into a system's formation and dynamical history. In this paper, we use MAROON-X observations of the Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM) effect to…

The sub-Jovian desert is a region in the mass-period and radius-period parameter space, typically encompassing short-period ranges between super-Earths and hot Jupiters, that exhib…
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…
