TOI-1670 c, a 40-day Orbital Period Warm Jupiter in a Compact System, is Well-aligned

Jack Lubin, Xian-Yu Wang, Malena Rice +21

We report the measurement of the sky-projected obliquity angle of the Warm Jovian exoplanet TOI-1670 c via the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect as part of the Stellar Obliquities in…

Evidence for Low-Level Dynamical Excitation in Near-Resonant Exoplanet Systems

Malena Rice, Xian-Yu Wang, Songhu Wang +18

The geometries of near-resonant planetary systems offer a relatively pristine window into the initial conditions of exoplanet systems. Given that near-resonant systems have likely…

Enhanced Size Uniformity for Near-resonant Planets

Armaan V. Goyal, Fei Dai, Songhu Wang

Super-Earths within the same close-in, compact planetary system tend to exhibit a striking degree of uniformity in their radius, mass, and orbital spacing, and this 'peas-in-a-pod'…

SOLES VII: The Spin-Orbit Alignment of WASP-106 b, a Warm Jupiter Along the Kraft Break

Josette Wright, Malena Rice, Xian-Yu Wang +2

Although close-orbiting, massive exoplanets -- known as hot and warm Jupiters -- are among the most observationally accessible known planets, their formation pathways are still not…

TOI-1859b: A 64-Day Warm Jupiter on an Eccentric and Misaligned Orbit

Jiayin Dong, Songhu Wang, Malena Rice +31

Warm Jupiters are close-in giant planets with relatively large planet-star separations (i.e., ). Given their weak tidal interactions with their host stars, meas…

The Spin-Orbit Misalignment of TOI-1842b: The First Measurement of the Rossiter-McLaughlin Effect for a Warm Sub-Saturn around a Massive Star

Kyle Hixenbaugh, Xian-Yu Wang, Malena Rice +1

The mechanisms responsible for generating spin-orbit misalignments in exoplanetary systems are still not fully understood. It is unclear whether these misalignments are related to…
