An Adolescent and Near-Resonant Planetary System Near the End of Photoevaporation
Mu-Tian Wang, Fei Dai, Hui-Gen Liu +28
Young exoplanets provide vital insights into the early dynamical and atmospheric evolution of planetary systems. Many multi-planet systems younger than 100 Myr exhibit mean-motion…
Testing the Origin of Hot Jupiters with Atmospheric Surveys
Lina D'Aoust, Ben Coull-Neveu, Eve J. Lee +1
In spite of their long detection history, the origin of hot Jupiters remains to be resolved. While multiple dynamical evidence suggests high-eccentricity migration is most likely,…
Giant Outer Transiting Exoplanet Mass (GOT `EM) Survey. V. Two Giant Planets in Kepler-511 but Only One Ran Away
Yayaati Chachan, Paul A. Dalba, Daniel P. Thorngren +6
Systems hosting multiple giant planets are important laboratories for understanding planetary formation and migration processes. We present a nearly decade-long Doppler spectroscop…
Resolving the Super-Earth/Gas Giant Connection in Stellar Mass and Metallicity
Marta L. Bryan, Eve J. Lee
The observed correlation between inner super-Earths and outer gas giants places strong constraints on formation theories. Building on previous work, Bryan Lee 2024 showed that…
Carving the Edges of the Rocky Planet Population
Eve J. Lee, James E. Owen
Short-period planets provide ideal laboratories for testing star-planet interaction. Planets that are smaller than 2 are considered to be largely rocky either havin…
On the Formation of Planets in the Milky Way's Thick Disk
Tim Hallatt, Eve J. Lee
Exoplanet demographic surveys have revealed that close-in (1 au) small planets orbiting stars in the Milky Way's thick disk are less abundant than those or…
