Paving the Road to the Habitable Worlds Observatory with High-Resolution Imaging I: New and Archival Speckle Observations of Potential HWO Target Stars
Zachary D. Hartman, Catherine A. Clark, Michael B. Lund +15
One of the key goals of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is to directly image about 25 potentially habitable exoplanets and determine their properties. This challenge will re…
A search for Be stars in multiple systems within the solar neighborhood
V. M. Kalari, R. Salinas, C. Saez-Carvajal +9
Be stars are widely considered to be the product of binary interaction. However, whether all Be stars are formed via binary interaction is unclear, and detailed estimates of the mu…
TOI-1438: A rare system with two short-period sub-Neptunes and a tentative long-period Jupiter-like planet orbiting a K0V star
Carina M. Persson, Emil Knudstrup, Ilaria Carleo +44
We present the detection and characterisation of the TOI-1438 multi-planet system discovered by TESS. We collected a series of follow-up observations including high-spectral resolu…
Giant Outer Transiting Exoplanet Mass (GOT 'EM) Survey. VI: Confirmation of a Long-Period Giant Planet Discovered with a Single TESS Transit
Zahra Essack, Diana Dragomir, Paul A. Dalba +81
We report the discovery and confirmation of TOI-4465 b, a , giant planet orbiting a G dwarf star at 122 pc. The planet was…
Nearly a Decade of Groundbreaking Speckle Interferometry at the International Gemini Observatory
Steve B. Howell, Clara E. MartÃnez-Vázquez, Elise Furlan +8
Since its inception, speckle interferometry has revolutionized high-resolution astronomical imaging, overcoming atmospheric challenges to achieve the diffraction limits of telescop…
The NCORES Program: Precise planetary masses, null results, and insight into the planet mass distribution near the radius gap
David J. Armstrong, Ares Osborn, Remo Burn +39
NCORES was a large observing program on the ESO HARPS spectrograph, dedicated to measuring the masses of Neptune-like and smaller transiting planets discovered by the TESS satellit…
