Understanding the Impacts of Stellar Companions on Planet Formation and Evolution: A Survey of Stellar and Planetary Companions within 25 pc

Lea A. Hirsch, Lee Rosenthal, Benjamin J. Fulton +10

We explore the impact of outer stellar companions on the occurrence rate of giant planets detected with radial velocities. We searched for stellar and planetary companions to a vol…

Speckle Imaging Characterization of Radial Velocity Exoplanet Systems

Paul A. Dalba, Stephen R. Kane, Steve B. Howell +10

We conducted speckle imaging observations of 53 stellar systems that were members of long-term radial velocity (RV) monitoring campaigns and exhibited substantial accelerations ind…

WASP-107b's density is even lower: a case study for the physics of planetary gas envelope accretion and orbital migration

Caroline Piaulet, Björn Benneke, Ryan A. Rubenzahl +21

With a mass in the Neptune regime and a radius of Jupiter, WASP-107b presents a challenge to planet formation theories. Meanwhile, the planet's low surface gravity and the star's b…

Transmission spectroscopy for the warm sub-Neptune HD3167c: evidence for molecular absorption and a possible high metallicity atmosphere

Thomas Mikal-Evans, Ian J. M. Crossfield, Bjorn Benneke +26

We present a transmission spectrum for the warm (500-600K) sub-Neptune HD3167c obtained using the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 infrared spectrograph. We combine these…

The Occurrence of Rocky Habitable Zone Planets Around Solar-Like Stars from Kepler Data

Steve Bryson, Michelle Kunimoto, Ravi K. Kopparapu +79

We present occurrence rates for rocky planets in the habitable zones (HZ) of main-sequence dwarf stars based on the Kepler DR25 planet candidate catalog and Gaia-based stellar prop…

The TRENDS High-contrast Imaging Survey. VIII. Compendium of Benchmark Objects

Erica J. Gonzales, Justin R. Crepp, Eric B. Bechter +5

The physical properties of faint stellar and substellar objects often rely on indirect, model-dependent estimates. For example, the masses of brown dwarfs are usually inferred usin…
