Six New Eclipsing AM CVn Binaries from the Zwicky Transient Facility
Aaron Householder, Kevin B. Burdge, Yapeng Zhang +16
We present the discovery of six new eclipsing AM CVn binaries, helium-accreting ultracompact systems in which a cool donor eclipses the accreting white dwarf. The systems were foun…
Hydrogen airglow from an escaping ultrahot Jupiter atmosphere
Yapeng Zhang, Chenliang Huang, Aaron Householder +17
Intense high-energy irradiation of close-in gaseous exoplanets drives the rapid escape of their atmospheres, fundamentally shaping planetary demographics. While atmospheric loss is…
Unraveling the Mystery of the Peculiar and Young Hot Jupiter CoRoT-2b. I. HO and CO Detection from Dayside Observations with Gemini-S/IGRINS
Ying Shu, Lisa Dang, Antoine Darveau-Bernier +12
We present ground-based high-resolution spectroscopic pre-eclipse observations of the hot Jupiter CoRoT-2b obtained with the IGRINS spectrograph on Gemini South. Using cross-correl…
The compositions of the HR 8799 planets reflect accretion of both solids and metal-enriched gas
Jerry W. Xuan, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Yayaati Chachan +24
With four giant planets (, $T_\rm{eff}\sim900-1200$ K) orbiting between 15-70 au, HR 8799 provides an unparalleled testbed for studying giant planet formatio…
Limits on the Post-eclipse Emission Spectrum of HD 80606 b From High-Resolution Spectroscop
Luke Finnerty, Aurora Kesseli, Kyle Pearson +2
We present Keck/NIRSPEC -band observations of HD 80606 b, one of the most eccentric known exoplanets. HD 80606 b was observed after secondary eclipse, close to periastron, when…
Extreme winds on the emerging dayside of an ultrahot Jupiter
Yapeng Zhang, Joost P. Wardenier, Aaron Householder +16
High-resolution spectroscopy provides a unique opportunity to directly probe atmospheric dynamics by resolving Doppler shifts of planetary signal as a function of orbital phases. U…
Jupiter-like uniform metal enrichment in a system of multiple giant exoplanets
Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Jerry W. Xuan, Yayaati Chachan +15
The accretion of icy and rocky solids during the formation of a gas giant planet is poorly constrained and challenging to model. Refractory species, like sulfur, are only present i…
The KPF SURFS-UP Survey I: Transmission Spectroscopy of WASP-76 b
Aaron Householder, Fei Dai, Aurora Kesseli +25
We introduce the KPF SURFS-UP (Spectroscopy of the Upper-atmospheres and ReFractory Species in Ultra-hot Planets) Survey, a high-resolution survey to investigate the atmospheric co…
The NASA Exoplanet Archive and Exoplanet Follow-up Observing Program: Data, Tools, and Usage
Jessie L. Christiansen, Douglas L. McElroy, Marcy Harbut +17
The NASA Exoplanet Archive and the Exoplanet Follow-up Observing Program service are two widely used resources for the exoplanet community. The NASA Exoplanet Archive provides a co…
The OATMEAL Survey. I. Low Stellar Obliquity in the Transiting Brown Dwarf System GPX-1
Steven Giacalone, Fei Dai, J. J. Zanazzi +31
We introduce the OATMEAL survey, an effort to measure the obliquities of stars with transiting brown dwarf companions. We observed a transit of the close-in ($P_{\rm orb} = 1.74 \,…
