Constraining the presence of exotrojans in hot Jupiter systems using TTV observations from TESS
Zixin Zhang, Wenqin Wang, Xinyue Ma +8
Co-orbital bodies (Trojans) share a 1:1 mean-motion resonance with a planet. Although Trojans are common in the Solar System, none has yet been confirmed in an exoplanetary system.…
Evidence for a Nonzero Eccentricity Superpuff Exoplanet WASP-107 b Using JWST Occultation Observation
Yunke Wu, Zixin Zhang, Xinyue Ma +6
WASP-107~b is an extremely low-density super-puff exoplanet whose inflated radius and evidence of strong internal heating make it a key target for understanding planetary structure…
Exoplanet Ephemerides Change Observations (ExoEcho). II. Transit timing variation analysis of Brown Dwarfs around Solar-type Stars
Wenqin Wang, Xinyue Ma, Zhangliang Chen +3
Transit timing variation (TTV) is a useful tool for studying the orbital properties of transiting objects. However, few TTV studies have been done on transiting brown dwarfs (BDs)…
HST/WFC3 Constraints on the Abundances of OH and FeH in the Atmosphere of the Ultra-Hot Neptune LTT-9779 b
Li Zhou, Xinyue Ma, Bo Ma +11
Planets residing within the hot-Neptune Desert are rare, and studying their atmospheres can provide valuable insights into their formation and evolutionary processes. We present th…
Exoplanet Ephemerides Change Observations (ExoEcho). I. Transit Timing Analysis of Thirty-Seven Exoplanets using HST/WFC3 Data
Xinyue Ma, Wenqin Wang, Zixin Zhang +6
The ExoEcho project is designed to study the photodynamics of exoplanets by leveraging high-precision transit timing data from ground- and space-based telescopes. Some exoplanets a…
