The KPF SURFS-UP Survey I: Transmission Spectroscopy of WASP-76 b
Aaron Householder, Fei Dai, Aurora Kesseli +25
We introduce the KPF SURFS-UP (Spectroscopy of the Upper-atmospheres and ReFractory Species in Ultra-hot Planets) Survey, a high-resolution survey to investigate the atmospheric co…
A Test of Substellar Evolutionary Models with High-Precision Ages from Asteroseismology and Gyrochronology for the Benchmark System HR 7672AB
Yaguang Li, Michael C. Liu, Trent J. Dupuy +35
We present high-precision measurements for HR~7672AB, composed of a Sun-like (G0V) star and an L~dwarf companion. Three nights of precise (70 cm/s) radial velocity (RV) asteroseism…
TOI-4495: A Pair of Aligned, Near-Resonant Sub-Neptunes that Likely Experienced Overstable Migration
Mu-Tian Wang, Fei Dai, Hui-Gen Liu +24
We report the discovery of a sub-Neptune and a Neptune-like planet (, ) orbiting the F-type star TOI-449…
TOI-880 is an Aligned, Coplanar, Multi-planet System
Elina Y. Zhang, Huan-Yu Teng, Fei Dai +22
Although many cases of stellar spin-orbit misalignment are known, it is usually unclear whether a single planet's orbit was tilted or if the entire protoplanetary disk was misalign…
Stellar Obliquity of the Ultra-Short-Period Planet System HD 93963
Huan-Yu Teng, Fei Dai, Andrew W. Howard +24
We report an observation of the Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM) effect of the transiting planet HD 93963 Ac, a mini-Neptune planet orbiting a G0-type star with an orbital period of $P_{\r…
Doppler Shifted Transient Sodium Detection by KECK/HIRES
Athira Unni, Apurva V. Oza, H. Jens Hoeijmakers +12
We carried out the first high-resolution transit observations of the exoplanet WASP-49 Ab with Keck/HIRES. Upon custom wavelength calibration we achieve a Doppler RV precision of $…
