Dynamical Architectures of S-type Transiting Planets in Binaries II: A Dichotomy in Orbital Alignment of Small Planets in Close Binary Systems
Jingwen Zhang, Daniel Huber, Michael Bottom +35
Stellar multiplicity plays a crucial role in shaping planet formation and dynamical evolution. We present a survey of 54 TESS Objects of Interest (TOIs) within 300 pc that exhibit…
Chemical and Isotopic Homogeneity Between the L Dwarf CD-35 2722 B and its Early M Host Star
Gavin Wang, Jerry Xuan, DarÃo Picos +29
CD-35 2722 B is an L dwarf companion to the nearby, Myr old M1 dwarf CD-35 2722 A. We present a detailed analysis of both objects using high-resolution ($R \sim 35,00…
The watery atmosphere of HD~209458~b revealed by joint - and -band high-resolution spectroscopy
Luke Finnerty, Julie Inglis, Michael P. Fitzgerald +26
We present a joint analysis of high-resolution - and -band observations of the benchmark hot Jupiter \hdb\ from the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC). One half nigh…
Fringing analysis and forward modeling of Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) spectra
Katelyn A. Horstman, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Jason J. Wang +27
The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) combines high contrast imaging with high resolution spectroscopy (R~35,000 in K band) to study directly imaged exoplanets and brown…
Water dissociation and rotational broadening in the atmosphere of KELT-20 b from high-resolution spectroscopy
Luke Finnerty, Yinzi Xin, Jerry W. Xuan +29
We present atmospheric retrievals from Keck/KPIC phase II observations of the ultra-hot Jupiter KELT-20/MASCARA-2~b. Previous free retrievals of molecular abundances for ultra-hot…
Technical description and performance of the phase II version of the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer
Nemanja Jovanovic, Daniel Echeverri, Jacques-Robert Delorme +46
The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) is a series of upgrades for the Keck II Adaptive Optics (AO) system and the NIRSPEC spectrograph to enable diffraction limited, high…
