POSEIDON III: The Aligned Orbit of the Hot Neptune Around the Hot Star WASP-195
Juan I. Espinoza-Retamal, Joshua N. Winn, Rafael Brahm +33
Stellar obliquities provide important clues as to the formation and migration histories of planetary systems, but measurements remain scarce for Neptune-mass planets, especially th…
Hydrogen airglow from an escaping ultrahot Jupiter atmosphere
Yapeng Zhang, Chenliang Huang, Aaron Householder +17
Intense high-energy irradiation of close-in gaseous exoplanets drives the rapid escape of their atmospheres, fundamentally shaping planetary demographics. While atmospheric loss is…
Revisiting the Exo-Mercury Candidate GJ 367 b with ESPRESSO and a Self-Consistent Tidal Distortion Model
Rena A. Lee, Fei Dai, Ellen M. Price +18
We report revised mass and radius measurements for GJ 367 b, an ultra-short-period (7.7 hr) sub-Earth in a multi-planet system orbiting a nearby (~9 pc) M dwarf host. Previous mass…
Extreme winds on the emerging dayside of an ultrahot Jupiter
Yapeng Zhang, Joost P. Wardenier, Aaron Householder +16
High-resolution spectroscopy provides a unique opportunity to directly probe atmospheric dynamics by resolving Doppler shifts of planetary signal as a function of orbital phases. U…
The Occurrence Rate of Nearby Planetary Companions to Hot Jupiters
Lizhou Sha, Andrew M. Vanderburg, Chelsea X. Huang +33
Of the > 500 confirmed transiting hot jupiters and approximately 2000 additional candidates today, only ten are known to have nearby companion planets. The survival of nearby compa…
From Earths to Super-Earths: Five New Small Planets Transiting M Dwarf Stars
Jonathan Gomez Barrientos, Heather A. Knutson, Morgan Saidel +39
Earth-sized planets transiting M dwarf stars present one of the best opportunities with current facilities for studying the atmospheric and bulk compositions of terrestrial worlds.…
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…
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…
TESS Giants Transiting Giants. VII. A Hot Saturn Orbiting an Oscillating Red Giant Star
Nicholas Saunders, Samuel K. Grunblatt, Daniel Huber +26
We present the discovery of TOI-7041 b (TIC 201175570 b), a hot Saturn transiting a red giant star with measurable stellar oscillations. We observe solar-like oscillations in TOI-7…
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…
TESS asteroseismology of Hydri: a subgiant with a born-again dynamo
Travis S. Metcalfe, Jennifer L. van Saders, Daniel Huber +12
The solar-type subgiant Hyi has long been studied as an old analog of the Sun. Although the rotation period has never been measured directly, it was estimated to be near 27 day…
Discovery of a Jupiter Analog Misaligned to the Inner Planetary System in HD 73344
Jingwen Zhang, Lauren M. Weiss, Daniel Huber +6
We present the discovery of a Jupiter-like planet, HD 73344 d (, AU, ) based on…
TESS Giants Transiting Giants. VI. Newly Discovered Hot Jupiters Provide Evidence for Efficient Obliquity Damping after the Main Sequence
Nicholas Saunders, Samuel K. Grunblatt, Ashley Chontos +53
The degree of alignment between a star's spin axis and the orbital plane of its planets (the stellar obliquity) is related to interesting and poorly understood processes that occur…
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…
Additional Doppler Monitoring Corroborates HAT-P-11 c as a Planet
Samuel W. Yee, Erik A. Petigura, Howard Isaacson +15
In 2010, Bakos and collaborators discovered a Neptune-sized planet transiting the K-dwarf HAT-P-11 every five days. Later in 2018, Yee and collaborators reported an additional Jovi…
