A Search for helium in the atmospheres of three sub-Neptunes and a super-Earth around M-dwarfs
Kiyoe Kawauchi, Norio Narita, Yuichi Ito +26
Thousands of sub-Neptunes have been discovered mainly through space-based surveys such as Kepler and TESS. Their bulk compositions and internal structures are thought to reflect th…
The mass of TOI-1883 b: A low density super-Neptune in the ridge regime transiting an early-M dwarf
Izuru Fukuda, Norio Narita, Akihiko Fukui +36
Recent large-scale transit surveys conducted by space telescopes such as Kepler and TESS have revealed a vast number of exoplanets, uncovering the diversity of their population. On…
Sibling Sub-Neptunes Around Sibling M Dwarfs: TOI-521 and TOI-912
G. Lacedelli, E. Pallé, R. Luque +47
Sub-Neptunes are absent in the Solar System, yet they are commonly found in our Galaxy. They challenge the internal structure models and prompt investigation on their formation, ev…
The mass of TOI-654 b: A short-period sub-Neptune transiting a mid-M dwarf
Kai Ikuta, Norio Narita, Takuya Takarada +40
Sub-Neptunes are small planets between the size of the Earth and Neptune. The orbital and bulk properties of transiting sub-Neptunes can provide clues for their formation and evolu…
Atmospheric retrieval of Subaru/IRD high-resolution spectrum of the archetype T-type brown dwarf Gl 229 B
Yui Kawashima, Hajime Kawahara, Yui Kasagi +14
Brown dwarfs provide a unique opportunity to study atmospheres and their physical and chemical processes with high precision, especially in temperature ranges relevant to exoplanet…
Gliese 12 b: A temperate Earth-sized planet at 12 pc ideal for atmospheric transmission spectroscopy
M. Kuzuhara, A. Fukui, J. H. Livingston +103
Recent discoveries of Earth-sized planets transiting nearby M dwarfs have made it possible to characterize the atmospheres of terrestrial planets via follow-up spectroscopic observ…
The Discovery and Follow-up of Four Transiting Short-period Sub-Neptunes Orbiting M dwarfs
Y. Hori, A. Fukui, T. Hirano +100
Sub-Neptunes with are intermediate in size between rocky planets and Neptune-sized planets. The orbital properties and bulk compositions of transiting sub-Neptunes pr…
Transit Spectroscopy of K2-33b with Subaru/IRD: Spin-Orbit Alignment and Tentative Atmospheric Helium
Teruyuki Hirano, Eric Gaidos, Hiroki Harakawa +13
Exoplanets in their infancy are ideal targets to probe the formation and evolution history of planetary systems, including the planet migration and atmospheric evolution and dissip…
Direct Imaging of a Cold Jovian Exoplanet in Orbit around the Sun-like Star GJ 504
M. Kuzuhara, M. Tamura, T. Kudo +54
Several exoplanets have recently been imaged at wide separations of >10 AU from their parent stars. These span a limited range of ages (<50 Myr) and atmospheric properties, with te…
Exoplanet Characterization and the Search for Life
J. Kasting, W. Traub, A. Roberge +119
Over 300 extrasolar planets (exoplanets) have been detected orbiting nearby stars. We now hope to conduct a census of all planets around nearby stars and to characterize their atmo…
