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…

An Adolescent and Near-Resonant Planetary System Near the End of Photoevaporation

Mu-Tian Wang, Fei Dai, Hui-Gen Liu +28

Young exoplanets provide vital insights into the early dynamical and atmospheric evolution of planetary systems. Many multi-planet systems younger than 100 Myr exhibit mean-motion…

Searching for Transit Timing Variations in young transiting systems

Ana Isabel Lopez Murillo, Andrew W. Mann, Madyson G. Barber +3

The discovery of young (<800 Myr) transiting planets has provided a new avenue to explore how planets form and evolve over their lifetimes. Mass measurements for these planets woul…

Stellar Obliquities of Young Systems, Atmospheres Undergoing Contraction and Escape (SOYSAUCE): a likely aligned orbit for the 3 Myr planet TIDYE-1 b

Madyson G. Barber, Andrew W. Mann, Marshall C. Johnson +12

Despite the wide range of planet-star (mis)alignments in the mature population of transiting exoplanets, the small number of known young transiting planets are nearly all aligned w…

TESS Investigation -- Demographics of Young Exoplanets (TI-DYE) IV: a Jovian radius planet orbiting a 34 Myr Sun-like star in the Vela association

Madyson G. Barber, Andrew W. Mann, Andrew Vanderburg +17

The discovery of infant (< 50 Myr), close-in (<30-day period) planets is vital in understanding the formation mechanisms that lead to the distribution of mature transiting planets…
