The KPF-SLOPE Survey - Small, Compact Multi-Planet Systems Appear Spin-Orbit Aligned
Luke B. Handley, Andrew W. Howard, Fei Dai +16
The angle between stellar spin axes and planetary orbits -- stellar obliquity -- probes the dynamics of planetary migration and evolution. The obliquities of giant planets have bee…
Anti-Solar Differential Rotation May Have Revived Magnetic Braking in the Subgiant 31 Aquilae
Travis S. Metcalfe, Jennifer L. van Saders, Thomas R. Ayres +16
Recent observations have shown that sufficiently slow rotation disrupts the organization of large-scale magnetic field in older main-sequence stars, leading to weakened magnetic br…
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…
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…
K-dwarf Radius Inflation and a 10-Gyr Spin-down Clock Unveiled through Asteroseismology of HD 219134 from the Keck Planet Finder
Yaguang Li, Daniel Huber, J. M. Joel Ong +26
We present the first asteroseismic analysis of the K3\,V planet host HD~219134, based on four consecutive nights of radial velocities collected with the Keck Planet Finder. We appl…
TOI-6324b: An Earth-Mass Ultra-Short-Period Planet Transiting a Nearby M Dwarf
Rena A. Lee, Fei Dai, Andrew W. Howard +71
We report the confirmation of TOI-6324 b, an Earth-sized (1.059 0.041 R) ultra-short-period (USP) planet orbiting a nearby (20 pc) M dwarf. Using the newly com…
The Compositions of Rocky Planets in Close-in Orbits Tend to be Earth-Like
Casey L. Brinkman, Lauren M. Weiss, Daniel Huber +54
Hundreds of exoplanets between 1-1.8 times the size of the Earth have been discovered on close in orbits. However, these planets show such a diversity in densities that some appear…
Asteroseismology of the Nearby K-Dwarf Draconis using the Keck Planet Finder and TESS
Marc Hon, Daniel Huber, Yaguang Li +76
Asteroseismology of dwarf stars cooler than the Sun is very challenging due to the low amplitudes and rapid timescales of oscillations. Here, we present the asteroseismic detection…
An Earth-sized Planet on the Verge of Tidal Disruption
Fei Dai, Andrew W. Howard, Samuel Halverson +95
TOI-6255~b (GJ 4256) is an Earth-sized planet (1.079 ) with an orbital period of only 5.7 hours. With the newly commissioned Keck Planet Finder (KPF) and CARMEN…
Precise Time-Domain Asteroseismology and a Revised Target List for TESS Solar-Like Oscillators
Daniel Hey, Daniel Huber, Joel Ong +2
The TESS mission has provided a wealth of asteroseismic data for solar-like oscillators. However, these data are subject to varying cadences, large gaps, and unequal sampling, whic…
