Filling the Gap: Calibrating Gyrochronology at 1.3 Gyr with the Benchmark Cluster NGC-752

Andrew W. Boyle, Andrew W. Mann

Empirical gyrochronology relies on co-eval stellar associations to map stellar rotation as a function of mass and age. The accuracy of its age predictions is therefore limited by t…

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…

The TESS All-Sky Rotation Survey: Periods for 1,046,317 Stars Within 500 pc

Andrew W. Boyle, Luke G. Bouma, Andrew W. Mann

Stellar rotation is a fundamental tracer of stellar magnetic evolution, age, and activity, with broad implications for Galactic archaeology and exoplanet characterization. The Tran…

A young progenitor for the most common planetary systems in the Galaxy

John H. Livingston, Erik A. Petigura, Trevor J. David +39

The Galaxy's most common known planetary systems have several Earth-to-Neptune-size planets in compact orbits. At small orbital separations, larger planets are less common than the…

Lost Sisters Found: TESS and Gaia Reveal a Dissolving Pleiades Complex

Andrew W. Boyle, Luke G. Bouma, Andrew W. Mann

Most star clusters dissolve into the Galaxy over tens to hundreds of millions of years after they form. While recent Gaia studies have honed our view of cluster dispersal, the exac…

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…

Quantifying the Limits of TESS Stellar Rotation Measurements with the K2-TESS Overlap

Andrew W. Boyle, Andrew W. Mann, Jonathan Bush

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has provided stellar rotation periods across much of the sky through high-precision light curves, but the reliability and completen…

Disk-Star Alignment I: Pre-Main-Sequence Stellar Parameters and the Statistical Alignment Between Disks and Stellar Rotation

Matthew J. Fields, Andrew W. Mann, Aurora Kesseli +1

Astronomers generally assume planet-forming disks are aligned with the rotation of their host star. However, recent observations have shown evidence of warping in protoplanetary di…

SOAR/Goodman Spectroscopic Assessment of Candidate Counterparts of the LIGO-Virgo Event GW190814

Douglas Tucker, Matthew Wiesner, Sahar Allam +140

On 2019 August 14 at 21:10:39 UTC, the LIGO/Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected a possible neutron star-black hole merger (NSBH), the first ever identified. An extensive search for…
