Can radio occultations constrain Uranus or Neptune's internal rotation periods?

Christopher R. Mankovich, Alex B. Akins, Dustin Buccino +2

The shapes of fluid planets bear the signatures of rotational flattening and atmospheric flows. Precise knowledge of their shapes and wind profiles may therefore reveal their inter…

Densities of small planets around the M dwarfs TOI-4336 A and TOI-4342 with ESPRESSO: Three sub-Neptunes, one super-Earth, and a Neptune-mass candidate

Léna Parc, Charles Cadieux, Nolan Grieves +27

We present the characterization of two planetary systems orbiting the M dwarfs TOI-4336 A (M3.5V) and TOI-4342 (M0V), each hosting two transiting planets previously validated with…

Towards an agnostic algorithm for sampling empirical structure models: The case of Uranus and Neptune

Stefano Wirth, Luca Morf, Ravit Helled

We present an algorithm to efficiently sample the full space of planetary interior density profiles. Our approach uses as few assumptions as possible to pursue an agnostic algorith…

Further constraints on Jupiter's primordial structure

Henrik Knierim, Konstantin Batygin, Ravit Helled +2

The primordial structure of Jupiter remains uncertain, yet it holds vital clues on the planet's formation and early evolution. Recent work used dynamical constraints from Jupiter's…

Stellar chemistry and planet size: insights from GALAH DR4

N. Sussholz, S. Zucker, R. Helled +1

The well-known correlation between stellar metallicity and planet occurrence is strongest for giant planets, but weaker for smaller planets, suggesting that detailed elemental patt…

Giant Planet Evolution with MESA

Ravit Helled, Simon Müller, Henrik Knierim

The evolution of gaseous planets is a complex process influenced by various physical parameters and processes. In this study, we present critical modifications to the Modules for E…
