Spin-Orbit Geometry of AU Mic b and c from Back-to-Back Transits Observed Contemporaneously with Magellan PFS, LCOGT, and CHEOPS

Zitao Lin, Gyula M. Szabó, Krzysztof Sz. Zieliński +37

Young planets offer a unique window into the early stages of planetary evolution. AU Mic is one of the nearest (9.8 pc) pre-main sequence stars (~20 Myr), hosting two transiting Ne…

JWST Exoplanetary Worlds and Elemental Survey (JEWELS) II: Condensation Temperature Trends and Galactic Chemical Evolution in JWST Planet-Hosting Stars

Qinghui Sun, Xianyu Tan, Gordon +5

We present high-precision chemical abundances for 25 FGK-type stars hosting exoplanets observed in JWST Cycle 3 programs and all GTO and DDT programs from Cycles 1-3, based on high…

RV and TTV Measurements of Two Transiting Long-Period Giants around TOI-4600

Tong Hu, Zitao Lin, Sharon X. Wang +27

TOI-4600b and c, originally identified by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and reported by I. Mireles et al. (2023), are a rare pair of transiting long-period giant…

Detection of four cold Jupiters through combined analyses of radial velocity and astrometry data

Yiyun Wu, Guang-Yao Xiao, R. Paul Butler +19

Cold Jupiters play a crucial role in planet formation and dynamical evolution. Since their initial discovery around 47 UMa, they have attracted significant interest, yet their form…

Planets Around Solar Twins/Analogs (PASTA) II: chemical abundances, systematic offsets, and clues to planet formation

Qinghui Sun, Chenyang Ji, Sharon Xuesong Wang +5

Context. Previous studies have suggested that the Sun is relatively depleted in refractory elements compared to other solar twins or analogs, potentially as a result of planet form…

A New Brown Dwarf Orbiting an M star and An Investigation on the Eccentricity Distribution of Transiting Long-Period Brown Dwarfs

Tianjun Gan, Charles Cadieux, Shigeru Ida +32

The orbital eccentricities of brown dwarfs encode valuable information of their formation and evolution history, providing insights into whether they resemble giant planets or stel…
