Thermal Eclipse Observation of the Young Hot Neptune AU Mic b with Spitzer

Kevin I. Collins, Peter Plavchan, Zachory Berta-Thompson +11

We present the observation of a secondary eclipse of the young hot Neptune, AU Mic b, in the infrared using the Spitzer Space Telescope. Using a primary transit from Spitzer to con…

Investigating the eccentricity distribution of transiting, long-period giant planets

Ahlam Alqasim, Teruyuki Hirano, Yasunori Hori +12

Eccentric giant planets are predicted to have acquired their eccentricity through two major mechanisms: the Kozai-Lidov effect or planet-planet scattering, but it is normally diffi…
