Singles in Disguise: Kepler's Low-SNR Single-Transiting Systems as Incompletely Detected Multis
Daniel A. Yahalomi, David Nesvorny, David Kipping +2
NASA's Kepler mission found more systems with one transiting planet (``singles'') than expected from those with several (``multis''). This excess was first taken as evidence for a…
JWST Excludes Exomoons Down to 0.1 Earth Radii Around a Rocky, Temperate Exoplanet
David Kipping
To date, even with JWST, it has not been possible to test for exomoons as small as the Moon. Only two reported searches for exomoons around bound planets have been attempted with J…
ExoMOD II. A Statistical Model of Transit Timing Variations in Kepler Multi-Planet Systems
David Nesvorny, Daniel A. Yahalomi, David Kipping +2
In Paper I (Nesvorný et al. 2026), we forward modeled transit observations of the Kepler telescope to characterize the orbital properties of close-in planetary systems. The new pop…
ExoMOD I. A Forward Model for the Orbital Architecture of Kepler Multi-Planet Systems
David Nesvorny, Daniel A. Yahalomi, David Kipping +1
Transit observations only detect planets with favorable, near edge-on orientation of orbits as seen by a distant observer, which leaves much freedom for various interpretations in…
The Cosmological Hart-Tipler Conjecture
David Kipping
Self-reproducing automata, so-called von Neumann machines, have been repeatedly estimated to be capable of traversing the Galaxy many times given its age. Our mere existence thus s…
What to make of the Earth's curiously intermediate land fraction?
David Kipping
Approximately two-thirds of the Earth, the only known inhabited planet, is covered in ocean. Why not 0.01% or 99.99%? It has been previously suggested that this may represent a cer…
TIC-65910228 b / NGTS-38 b, a 180 day transiting warm super-Jupiter
Toby Rodel, Solène Ulmer-Moll, Samuel Gill +63
We present the discovery of TIC-65910228 b / NGTS-38 b, a giant exoplanet with a radius of R and a mass of M on a long-…
