CHEOPS observations of V1298 Tau: updated planetary densities and implications on the early evolution of the young system
Hinna Shivkumar, Sérgio Gomes, Jean-Michel Désert +9
The young (10-30 Myr) multi-planet system V1298 Tau presents a unique opportunity to probe the early formation and evolution of young systems. We present new CHEOPS observations of…
KRONOS I: The m JWST Transmission Spectrum of the 23 Myr V1298 Tau c
Matthew M. Murphy, Matthew C. Nixon, Adina D. Feinstein +16
While recent JWST observations of mature super-Earths and sub-Neptunes have frequently revealed featureless transmission spectra, their inflated progenitors offer a unique window i…
KRONOS II: Solar-like Umbra and Penumbra Properties on the Young Sun V1298~Tau
Matthew M. Murphy, Adina D. Feinstein, Meir E. Schochet +14
Transiting exoplanets provide a unique laboratory for studying stellar surface heterogeneities via starspot or facular occultations. When observed at multiple wavelengths, this con…
JWST unveils a high mean molecular weight atmosphere for mini-Neptune TOI-1130b: Evidence for formation beyond the water ice line
Saugata Barat, Tyler Fairnington, Shelby Courreges +21
We present the combined JWST/NIRSpec G395H and NIRISS SOSS transmission spectrum of a warm mini-Neptune, TOI-1130b (3.66 R, 19.8 M, K). It is…
Seasonal Changes in the Atmosphere of HD 80606b Observed with JWST's NIRSpec/G395H
James T. Sikora, Jason F. Rowe, Jared Splinter +11
High-eccentricity gas giant planets serve as unique laboratories for studying the thermal and chemical properties of H/He-dominated atmospheres. One of the most extreme cases is HD…
A metal-poor atmosphere with a hot interior for a young sub-Neptune progenitor: JWST/NIRSpec transmission spectrum of V1298 Tau b
Saugata Barat, Jean-Michel Désert, Sagnick Mukherjee +19
We present the JWST/NIRSpec G395H transmission spectrum of the young (10 - 20 Myr old) transiting planet V1298 Tau b (9.85+/-0.35 Re, Teq=670K). Combined HST and JWST observations…
