A Misaligned Debris Disk relative to the Host Star CPD-72 2713 from JWST/NIRCam Imaging
Jingwen Zhang, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer, Kellen Lawson +17
Observations of debris disks provide a valuable window to investigate the formation and evolution of planetary systems. We present high-contrast JWST/NIRCam observations of CPD-72…
The Cephei System: Updated Orbits, Dynamical Architecture, and Limits on Additional Companions
Judah Van Zandt, Brendan P. Bowler, Michael Endl +18
The Cephei system hosts one of the first exoplanets discovered and is orbited by one of the closest known stellar companions to a planet-hosting star. Here, we derive updated o…
Hydrogen airglow from an escaping ultrahot Jupiter atmosphere
Yapeng Zhang, Chenliang Huang, Aaron Householder +17
Intense high-energy irradiation of close-in gaseous exoplanets drives the rapid escape of their atmospheres, fundamentally shaping planetary demographics. While atmospheric loss is…
An Outer Giant Planet or Brown Dwarf in the 51 Pegasi System?
Marvin Morgan, Brendan P. Bowler, Kyle Franson +15
51 Pegasi harbors the first confirmed extrasolar planet orbiting a Sun-like star. Decades of continued radial velocity (RV) observations have since uncovered signatures of an addit…
Gaia Exoplanet Orbits, Demographics, and Evolution Survey (GEODES): Characteristics of Three Long-Period Companions Accelerating their Host Stars
Judah Van Zandt, Brendan Bowler, Erik Petigura +12
The upcoming release of DR4 will yield thousands of giant planet candidates, eventually enabling studies of giant planet eccentricities, masses, and occurrence rates across…
Dynamical Mass Constraints on Transition Disk Perturbers with the G23H Catalog
Dori Blakely, William Thompson, Doug Johnstone +14
We present dynamical mass constraints on perturbers in 11 transition disk systems using a novel combination of calibrated Hipparcos and Gaia absolute astrometry data. Out of the sa…
Detecting and Characterizing Companions with a Calibrated Gaia DR2, DR3, and Hipparcos Catalog (G23H)
William Thompson, Dori Blakely, Jerry W. Xuan +16
Gaia DR4 epoch astrometry will enable the detection of thousands of exoplanets through astrometric motion. Here, we present a composite catalog and modeling framework that extracts…
Extreme winds on the emerging dayside of an ultrahot Jupiter
Yapeng Zhang, Joost P. Wardenier, Aaron Householder +16
High-resolution spectroscopy provides a unique opportunity to directly probe atmospheric dynamics by resolving Doppler shifts of planetary signal as a function of orbital phases. U…
Discovery of a Debris Disk Around TWA 20
Skyler Palatnick, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer, Jingwen Zhang +20
We report the discovery of a debris disk surrounding the M3 star, TWA 20, revealed by JWST coronagraphic observations using the Near-infrared Camera (NIRCam). With reference-star d…
Dynamical Architectures of S-type Transiting Planets in Binaries II: A Dichotomy in Orbital Alignment of Small Planets in Close Binary Systems
Jingwen Zhang, Daniel Huber, Michael Bottom +35
Stellar multiplicity plays a crucial role in shaping planet formation and dynamical evolution. We present a survey of 54 TESS Objects of Interest (TOIs) within 300 pc that exhibit…
TOI-6324b: An Earth-Mass Ultra-Short-Period Planet Transiting a Nearby M Dwarf
Rena A. Lee, Fei Dai, Andrew W. Howard +71
We report the confirmation of TOI-6324 b, an Earth-sized (1.059 0.041 R) ultra-short-period (USP) planet orbiting a nearby (20 pc) M dwarf. Using the newly com…
The Compositions of Rocky Planets in Close-in Orbits Tend to be Earth-Like
Casey L. Brinkman, Lauren M. Weiss, Daniel Huber +54
Hundreds of exoplanets between 1-1.8 times the size of the Earth have been discovered on close in orbits. However, these planets show such a diversity in densities that some appear…
Discovery of a Jupiter Analog Misaligned to the Inner Planetary System in HD 73344
Jingwen Zhang, Lauren M. Weiss, Daniel Huber +6
We present the discovery of a Jupiter-like planet, HD 73344 d (, AU, ) based on…
An Earth-sized Planet on the Verge of Tidal Disruption
Fei Dai, Andrew W. Howard, Samuel Halverson +95
TOI-6255~b (GJ 4256) is an Earth-sized planet (1.079 ) with an orbital period of only 5.7 hours. With the newly commissioned Keck Planet Finder (KPF) and CARMEN…
Additional Doppler Monitoring Corroborates HAT-P-11 c as a Planet
Samuel W. Yee, Erik A. Petigura, Howard Isaacson +15
In 2010, Bakos and collaborators discovered a Neptune-sized planet transiting the K-dwarf HAT-P-11 every five days. Later in 2018, Yee and collaborators reported an additional Jovi…
