A Ground-Based Transit Observation of the Long-Period Extremely Low-Density Planet HIP 41378 f
Juliana GarcÃa-MejÃa, Zoë L. de Beurs, Patrick Tamburo +25
We present a ground-based transit detection of HIP 41378 f, a long-period ( days), extremely low-density ( g cm) giant exoplanet in a dynamically com…
Modeling the Solar System I: Characterization Limits from Analytic Timing Variations
Bethlee Lindor, Eric Agol
Planetary systems with multiple transiting planets are beneficial for understanding planet occurrence rates and system architectures. Although we have yet to find a solar system an…
JWST TRAPPIST-1 e/b Program: Motivation and first observations
Natalie H. Allen, Néstor Espinoza, V. A. Boehm +24
One of the forefront goals in the field of exoplanets is the detection of an atmosphere on a temperate terrestrial exoplanet, and among the best suited systems to do so is TRAPPIST…
The Exoplanet Edge: Planets Don't Induce Observable TTVs with a Dominant TTV Period Faster than Half their Orbital Period
Daniel A. Yahalomi, David Kipping, Eric Agol +1
Transit timing variations (TTVs) are observed for exoplanets at a range of amplitudes and periods, yielding an ostensibly degenerate forest of possible explanations. We offer some…
First JWST thermal phase curves of temperate terrestrial exoplanets reveal no thick atmosphere around TRAPPIST-1 b and c
Michaël Gillon, Elsa Ducrot, Taylor J. Bell +30
We report JWST/MIRI 15 m phase curves of TRAPPIST-1 b and c, revealing thermal emission consistent with their irradiation levels, assuming no efficient heat redistribution. We…
Updated Masses for the Gas Giants in the Eight-Planet Kepler-90 System Via Transit-Timing Variation and Radial Velocity Observations
David E. Shaw, Lauren M. Weiss, Eric Agol +28
The eight-planet Kepler-90 system exhibits the greatest multiplicity of planets found to date. All eight planets are transiting and were discovered in photometry from the NASA Kepl…
