Discovery and Characterization of the TOI-4468 Planetary System: A Transiting Hot Jupiter With a Lone Nearby Outer Companion
Joseph R. Livesey, Benjamin J. Hord, Juliette Becker +28
We report the discovery of two planets, a hot Jupiter and a nearby outer sub-Neptune, orbiting the star TOI-4468. This system is unique among the current exoplanet census in that i…
Atmospheric Signatures of Common Envelope Evolution in White Dwarf Planets
Sydney Jenkins, Andrew Vanderburg, James Mang +4
The majority of confirmed exoplanets orbit within 1 au of a main-sequence (MS) star. When their stellar hosts evolve off the MS, many of these planets will be engulfed and destroye…
Kepler Image-Subtracted Light Curves and Variable Star Catalog of NGC 6819
Melinda Soares-Furtado, Rianna Kuenzi, Rachel Lee McClure +11
Variable stars in open clusters are valuable probes of stellar evolution. They provide precise measurements of stellar properties, constrain cluster ages and distances, and trace t…
The Tale of a Hungry Subgiant and Its Brown Dwarf: Interior Radiative Damping Dominates the Tidal Evolution of TOI-5882
Ritvik Sai Narayan, Melinda Soares-Furtado, Richard H. D. Townsend
We present a self-consistent tidal evolution framework that couples binary evolution from MESA to the full linear tidal response from GYRE-tides. Applying this framework to TOI-588…
From Hubble to HWO: Bridging the Frontier of White Dwarf Exoplanet Science
Laura K. Rogers, Siyi Xu, Martin Barstow +20
White dwarf stars, the endpoint of stellar evolution for 97% of stars in our Milky Way, offer a unique and powerful window into the bulk elemental composition of rocky exoplanetary…
Lithium Enrichment in a Subgiant Star with a Brown Dwarf Companion: A Planetary Engulfment Candidate
Brooke Kotten, Melinda Soares-Furtado, Ricardo Yarza +11
Theoretical models predict that subgiants within a narrow mass regime can retain detectable lithium enrichment signatures from planetary engulfment. We test this prediction using T…
