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…

TOI-4495: A Pair of Aligned, Near-Resonant Sub-Neptunes that Likely Experienced Overstable Migration

Mu-Tian Wang, Fei Dai, Hui-Gen Liu +24

We report the discovery of a sub-Neptune and a Neptune-like planet (, ) orbiting the F-type star TOI-449…

TOI-880 is an Aligned, Coplanar, Multi-planet System

Elina Y. Zhang, Huan-Yu Teng, Fei Dai +22

Although many cases of stellar spin-orbit misalignment are known, it is usually unclear whether a single planet's orbit was tilted or if the entire protoplanetary disk was misalign…

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…

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…
