Infant (100\,Myr) transiting planet systems provide glimpses into the processes that shape the observed mature planet population. Masses for these planets are powerful data poin…
Thermal Evolution of Lava Planets Across System Ages: Predictions for Hell of a Survey
Mariana Sastre, Tim Lichtenberg, Lisa Dang +22
Ultra-short-period (USP) rocky exoplanets can have dayside temperatures high enough to maintain permanent magma oceans, sitting at the intersection of interior geophysics and atmos…
Stellar Obliquities of Young Systems, Atmospheres Undergoing Contraction and Escape (SOYSAUCE) II: a 135 Myr planet on an aligned orbit with transit timing variations
Madyson G. Barber, Andrew W. Mann, Sydney Vach +16
Young planets (<1 Gyr) provide opportunities to directly probe planet formation and evolution processes in action. However, due to heightened stellar activity, there is a lack of k…
Preparing for the Early eVolution Explorer: Detecting the Primordial, Transiting Exoplanet Population
George Zhou, James G. Rogers, Jennifer A. Burt +17
The close-in small planet population may be formed either with hydrogen/helium dominated envelopes or with water-rich interiors. Both scenarios reproduce the present day planet pop…
An Adolescent and Near-Resonant Planetary System Near the End of Photoevaporation
Mu-Tian Wang, Fei Dai, Hui-Gen Liu +28
Young exoplanets provide vital insights into the early dynamical and atmospheric evolution of planetary systems. Many multi-planet systems younger than 100 Myr exhibit mean-motion…
Searching for Transit Timing Variations in young transiting systems
Ana Isabel Lopez Murillo, Andrew W. Mann, Madyson G. Barber +3
The discovery of young (<800 Myr) transiting planets has provided a new avenue to explore how planets form and evolve over their lifetimes. Mass measurements for these planets woul…
Stellar Obliquities of Young Systems, Atmospheres Undergoing Contraction and Escape (SOYSAUCE): a likely aligned orbit for the 3 Myr planet TIDYE-1 b
Madyson G. Barber, Andrew W. Mann, Marshall C. Johnson +12
Despite the wide range of planet-star (mis)alignments in the mature population of transiting exoplanets, the small number of known young transiting planets are nearly all aligned w…
TESS Investigation -- Demographics of Young Exoplanets (TI-DYE) IV: a Jovian radius planet orbiting a 34 Myr Sun-like star in the Vela association
Madyson G. Barber, Andrew W. Mann, Andrew Vanderburg +17
The discovery of infant (< 50 Myr), close-in (<30-day period) planets is vital in understanding the formation mechanisms that lead to the distribution of mature transiting planets…
Ever Elusive Exospheres: One Probable Detection and Two Non-Detections of Hα Transits in Young Systems
Reilly P. Milburn, Andrew W. Mann, Keighley Rockcliffe +5
Gaps in the exoplanet population, such as the Neptunian Desert, point to the importance of mass-loss in sculpting the radii of close-in exoplanets. Young planets (500Myr) offer…
THYME XIII: Two young Neptunes orbiting a 75-Myr star in the Alpha Persei Cluster
Anne Dattilo, Andrew M. Vanderburg, Madyson G. Barber +28
Young planets with mass measurements are particularly valuable in studying atmospheric mass-loss processes, but these planets are rare and their masses difficult to measure due to…
On Linking Planet Formation Models, Protoplanetary Disk Properties, and Mature Gas Giant Exoplanet Atmospheres
Adina D. Feinstein, Richard A. Booth, Jennifer B. Bergner +34
Measuring a single elemental ratio (e.g., carbon-to-oxygen) provides insufficient information for understanding the formation mechanisms and evolution that affect our observations…
TESS Investigation -- Demographics of Young Exoplanets (TI-DYE) III: an inner super-Earth in TOI-2076
Madyson G. Barber, Andrew W. Mann, Andrew Vanderburg +2
Young (<500 Myr) multi-planet transiting systems are valuable environments for understanding planet evolution by offering an opportunity to make direct comparisons between planets…
A 16 Myr super-Neptune in Upper-Centaurus Lupus and a preliminary survey of transiting planets in Sco-Cen with TESS
Sydney Vach, George Zhou, Andrew W. Mann +25
Measuring the properties of planets younger than about 50 Myr helps to test different planetary formation and evolution models. NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS)…
A giant planet transiting a 3-Myr protostar with a misaligned disk
Madyson G. Barber, Andrew W. Mann, Andrew Vanderburg +35
Astronomers have found more than a dozen planets transiting 10-40 million year old stars, but even younger transiting planets have remained elusive. A possible reason for the lack…
The Featherweight Giant: Unraveling the Atmosphere of a 17 Myr Planet with JWST
Pa Chia Thao, Andrew W. Mann, Adina D. Feinstein +29
The characterization of young planets (< 300 Myr) is pivotal for understanding planet formation and evolution. We present the 3-5m transmission spectrum of the 17 Myr, Jupiter-s…
