Refining the transit timing and photometric analysis of TRAPPIST-1: Masses, radii, densities, dynamics, and ephemerides

Eric Agol, Caroline Dorn, Simon L. Grimm +32

We have collected transit times for the TRAPPIST-1 system with the Spitzer Space Telescope over four years. We add to these ground-based, HST and K2 transit time measurements, and…

The Origin of Systems of Tightly Packed Inner Planets with Misaligned, Ultra-Short-Period Companions

Juliette Becker, Konstantin Batygin, Daniel C. Fabrycky +4

Ultra-short period planets provide a window into the inner edge of the parameter space occupied by planetary orbits. In one particularly intriguing class of multi-planet systems, t…

Multiple Transits during a Single Conjunction: Identifying Transiting Circumbinary Planetary Candidates from TESS

Veselin B. Kostov, William F. Welsh, Nader Haghighipour +10

We present results of a study on identifying circumbinary planet candidates that produce multiple transits during one conjunction with eclipsing binary systems. The occurrence of t…

The EBLM project. VII. Spin-orbit alignment for the circumbinary planet host EBLM J0608-59 A/TOI-1338 A

Vedad Kunovac Hodžić, Amaury H. M. J. Triaud, David V. Martin +14

A dozen short-period detached binaries are known to host transiting circumbinary planets. In all circumbinary systems so far, the planetary and binary orbits are aligned within a c…

TOI-1338: TESS' First Transiting Circumbinary Planet

Veselin B. Kostov, Jerome A. Orosz, Adina D. Feinstein +65

We report the detection of the first circumbinary planet found by TESS. The target, a known eclipsing binary, was observed in sectors 1 through 12 at 30-minute cadence and in secto…

An information theoretic framework for classifying exoplanetary system architectures

Gregory J. Gilbert, Daniel C. Fabrycky

We propose several descriptive measures to characterize the arrangements of planetary masses, periods, and mutual inclinations within exoplanetary systems. These measures are based…
