Searching for Exoplanets Born Outside the Milky Way: VOYAGERS Survey Design
Robert Aloisi, Andrew Vanderburg, Melinda Soares-Furtado +44
Observations over the past few decades have found that planets are common around nearby stars in our Galaxy, but little is known about planets that formed outside the Milky Way. We…
Reassessing the Relationship Between Stellar X-ray Luminosity and Age with eROSITA Data Release 1
Nadja Aldarondo Quiñones, Sydney Jenkins, Andrew Vanderburg +2
Accurate stellar dating provides crucial information about the formation and development of planetary systems. Existing age-dating techniques are limited in terms of both the spect…
The KPF SURFS-UP Survey I: Transmission Spectroscopy of WASP-76 b
Aaron Householder, Fei Dai, Aurora Kesseli +25
We introduce the KPF SURFS-UP (Spectroscopy of the Upper-atmospheres and ReFractory Species in Ultra-hot Planets) Survey, a high-resolution survey to investigate the atmospheric co…
A Decade of Solar High-Fidelity Spectroscopy and Precise Radial Velocities from HARPS-N
X. Dumusque, K. Al Moulla, M. Cretignier +53
We recently released 10 years of HARPS-N solar telescope and the goal of this manuscript is to present the different optimisations made to the data reduction, to describe data cura…
52 Eclipsing Quadruple Star Candidates Discovered in TESS Full Frame Images
Veselin B. Kostov, Brian P. Powell, Saul A. Rappaport +25
We present the discovery of 52 eclipsing quadruple star candidates detected in TESS Full Frame Image eleanor data by machine learning and citizen scientists. The uniformly-vetted a…
A Deep Search for Exomoons Around WISE 0855 With JWST
Mikayla J. Wilson, Mary Anne Limbach, Andrew J. Skemer +11
JWST is collecting time-series observations of many free-floating planets (FFPs) to study their weather, but these light curves are the ideal datasets to search for exomoons that t…
Sensitivity to Sub-Io-sized Exosatellite Transits in the MIRI LRS Lightcurve of the Nearest Substellar Worlds
Andrew Householder, Mary Anne Limbach, Beth Biller +20
JWST's unprecedented sensitivity enables precise spectrophotometric monitoring of substellar worlds, revealing atmospheric variability driven by mechanisms operating across differe…

We report the discovery of NGTS-11 c, a transiting warm Neptune ( d; ; ), in an…
MANGOS II: Five new giant planets orbiting low-mass stars
G. Dransfield, M. Timmermans, D. Sebastian +47
Giant planets orbiting low-mass stars on short orbits present a conundrum, as in the most extreme cases their existence cannot be reconciled with current models of core accretion.…
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Roman Sees Where You Are: Predicting Exoplanet Transit Yields in the Rosette Nebula with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope
Ritvik Sai Narayan, Melinda Soares-Furtado, Mary Anne Limbach +3
Young stars host only a small fraction of the known exoplanet population because their photometric variability, magnetic activity, and frequent placement in dense, poorly-resolved…
THYME XIII: Two young Neptunes orbiting a 75-Myr star in the Alpha Persei Cluster
Anne Dattilo, Andrew M. Vanderburg, Madyson G. Barber +28
Young planets with mass measurements are particularly valuable in studying atmospheric mass-loss processes, but these planets are rare and their masses difficult to measure due to…
