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…
GEMS JWST: A sub-Solar metallicity atmosphere for giant planet TOI-5293Ab orbiting a rapidly changing M-dwarf
Shubham Kanodia, Caleb I. Cañas, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger +13
The growing sample of Giant Exoplanets around M-dwarf Stars (GEMS) helps probe the extremes of giant planet formation. Comparing the properties of this sample with their FGK counte…
GEMS JWST: Transmission spectroscopy of TOI-5205b reveals significant stellar contamination and a metal-poor atmosphere
Caleb I. Cañas, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger, Shang-Min Tsai +21
Recent discoveries of transiting giant exoplanets () around M dwarfs (GEMS) present an opportunity to investigate their atmospheric compositions and…
A Cold and Super-Puffy Planet on a Prograde Orbit
Juan I. Espinoza-Retamal, Rafael Brahm, Cristobal Petrovich +36
We report the discovery of TOI-4507 b, a transiting sub-Saturn with a density 0.2 g/cm on a 105-day prograde orbit around a 700 Myr old F star. The transits were detected u…
Orbital decay candidates reconsidered: WASP-4 b is not decaying and Kepler-1658 b is not a planet
Joshua N. Winn, Guðmundur Stefánsson
The fate of hot Jupiters is thought to be engulfment by their host stars, the outcome of tidal orbital decay. Transit timing has revealed a few systems with apparently shrinking or…
Searching for Exoplanets Born Outside the Milky Way: VOYAGERS Survey Design
Robert Aloisi, Andrew Vanderburg, Melinda Soares-Furtado +44
Observations over the past few decades have found that planets are common around nearby stars in our Galaxy, but little is known about planets that formed outside the Milky Way. We…
