TS23/McDonald and FIES/NOT strike again. Two new warm Jupiter systems and outer companions in a third

E. Knudstrup, D. Gandolfi, W. D. Cochran +29

Warm Jupiters (gas giant planets with orbital periods of P8-200 d) are thought to be largely unaffected by the tidal interactions that can erase information about the dynamic…

Design of an atmospheric dispersion corrector and double scrambler for improved fiber coupling and illumination uniformity for the HET HRS

Devika K Divakar, Joseph Strubhar, Andrew Pinckney +1

The Hobby--Eberly Telescope High Resolution Spectrograph (HET--HRS) is undergoing a major instrument upgrade to improve its performance over the 360--1000 nm wavelength range. As p…

Optomechanical design of an ADC and image rotator for the HJST Coudé Spectrograph at McDonald Observatory

Devika K Divakar, Phillip MacQueen, Andrew Pinckney +1

High-resolution spectroscopic observations require stable slit illumination and mitigation of atmospheric refraction effects that degrade throughput and spectral fidelity. We prese…

The Cephei System: Updated Orbits, Dynamical Architecture, and Limits on Additional Companions

Judah Van Zandt, Brendan P. Bowler, Michael Endl +18

The Cephei system hosts one of the first exoplanets discovered and is orbited by one of the closest known stellar companions to a planet-hosting star. Here, we derive updated o…

The Hot Neptune Initiative (HONEI) III. An ultra-hot super Neptune orbiting the metal-rich subgiant star TOI-5646: the largest host for a desert dweller

L. Mancini, F. Manni, D. Kubyshkina +25

We report the confirmation of the TESS transiting-planet candidate orbiting the metal-rich F8\,IV-V subgiant star TOI-5646 (V=11.38 mag; T=6136 K). The planetary nature of TOI-5646…

HETDEX Public Data Release 1: Source Catalog 2 and Data Cubes from ~90 sq deg of Integral-Field Optical Spectroscopy

Erin Mentuch Cooper, Karl Gebhardt, Dustin Davis +36

The Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) is a wide-field, integral-field spectroscopic survey designed to map the large-scale distribution of Lyman-alpha emitting…
