Atmospheric characterization of six ultra-hot Jupiters from -band high-resolution spectroscopy

Luke Finnerty, Michael P. Fitzgerald, Yinzi Xin +27

We present new Keck/KPIC high-resolution spectroscopic detections of three ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs) in the band: WASP-189b (), MASCARA-1b (), and…

Possible stratospheric emission in the warm Neptune GJ 436 b from high-resolution spectroscopy

Luke Finnerty, Michael P Fitzgerald, Jerry W Xuan +26

We present high spectral resolution band (2.91--3.85 m) observations of the warm Neptune GJ 436 b from Keck II/KPIC. KPIC's single-mode fiber feed reduces the band sky b…

Chemical and Isotopic Homogeneity Between the L Dwarf CD-35 2722 B and its Early M Host Star

Gavin Wang, Jerry Xuan, Darío Picos +29

CD-35 2722 B is an L dwarf companion to the nearby, Myr old M1 dwarf CD-35 2722 A. We present a detailed analysis of both objects using high-resolution ($R \sim 35,00…

Dynamical Architectures of S-type Transiting Planets in Binaries II: A Dichotomy in Orbital Alignment of Small Planets in Close Binary Systems

Jingwen Zhang, Daniel Huber, Michael Bottom +35

Stellar multiplicity plays a crucial role in shaping planet formation and dynamical evolution. We present a survey of 54 TESS Objects of Interest (TOIs) within 300 pc that exhibit…

The watery atmosphere of HD~209458~b revealed by joint - and -band high-resolution spectroscopy

Luke Finnerty, Julie Inglis, Michael P. Fitzgerald +26

We present a joint analysis of high-resolution - and -band observations of the benchmark hot Jupiter \hdb\ from the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC). One half nigh…

PDS 70b Shows Stellar-like Carbon-to-oxygen Ratio

Chih-Chun Hsu, Jason J. Wang, Geoffrey A. Blake +27

The 5 Myr PDS 70 is the only known system with protoplanets residing in the cavity of the circumstellar disk from which they formed, ideal for studying exoplanet formation an…

True mass and atmospheric composition of the non-transiting hot Jupiter HD 143105 b

Luke Finnerty, Yinzi Xin, Jerry W. Xuan +28

We present Keck/KPIC phase II -band observations of the non-transiting hot Jupiter HD 143105 b. Using a cross-correlation approach, we make the first detection of the planetary…

The high-contrast performance of the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer

Jason J. Wang, Dimitri Mawet, Jerry W. Xuan +25

The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC), a series of upgrades to the Keck II Adaptive Optics System and Instrument Suite, aims to demonstrate high-resolution spectroscopy o…
