The Relativistic Jet Orientation and Host Galaxy of the Peculiar Blazar PKS 1413+135
A. C. S. Readhead, V. Ravi, I. Liodakis +26
PKS 1413+135 is one of the most peculiar blazars known. Its strange properties led to the hypothesis almost four decades ago that it is gravitationally lensed by a mass concentrati…
WASP-107b's density is even lower: a case study for the physics of planetary gas envelope accretion and orbital migration
Caroline Piaulet, Björn Benneke, Ryan A. Rubenzahl +21
With a mass in the Neptune regime and a radius of Jupiter, WASP-107b presents a challenge to planet formation theories. Meanwhile, the planet's low surface gravity and the star's b…
Transmission spectroscopy for the warm sub-Neptune HD3167c: evidence for molecular absorption and a possible high metallicity atmosphere
Thomas Mikal-Evans, Ian J. M. Crossfield, Bjorn Benneke +26
We present a transmission spectrum for the warm (500-600K) sub-Neptune HD3167c obtained using the Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Camera 3 infrared spectrograph. We combine these…
Spitzer Reveals Evidence of Molecular Absorption in the Atmosphere of the Hot Neptune LTT 9979b
Diana Dragomir, Ian J. M. Crossfield, Bjorn Benneke +27
Non-rocky sub-jovian exoplanets in high irradiation environments are rare. LTT 9979b, also known as TESS Object of Interest (TOI) 193.01, is one of the few such planets discovered…
Physical Parameters of the Multi-Planet Systems HD 106315 and GJ 9827
Molly R. Kosiarek, David A. Berardo, Ian J. M. Crossfield +42
HD 106315 and GJ 9827 are two bright, nearby stars that host multiple super-Earths and sub-Neptunes discovered by K2 that are well suited for atmospheric characterization. We refin…
HAWC+ Far-Infrared Observations of the Magnetic Field Geometry in M51 and NGC 891
Terry Jay Jones, Jin-Ah Kim, C. Darren Dowell +29
SOFIA HAWC+ polarimetry at $154~\micron$ is reported for the face-on galaxy M51 and the edge-on galaxy NGC 891. For M51, the polarization vectors generally follow the spiral patter…
