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…
