Discovery of a Nearby Habitable Zone Super-Earth Candidate Amenable to Direct Imaging
Corey Beard, Paul Robertson, Jack Lubin +31
We present the discovery of GJ 251 c, a candidate super-Earth orbiting in the Habitable Zone (HZ) of its M dwarf host star. Using high-precision Habitable-zone Planet Finder (HPF)…
Searching for GEMS: TOI-5916 b & TOI-6158 b are two Saturn-density planets orbiting M2 dwarfs
Shane O'Brien, Amber Wong, Te Han +20
We confirm the planetary nature of (1) TOI-5916 b and (2) TOI-6158 b, two Exoplanets Transiting M-dwarf Stars (GEMS), both discovered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (…
MANGOS II: Five new giant planets orbiting low-mass stars
G. Dransfield, M. Timmermans, D. Sebastian +47
Giant planets orbiting low-mass stars on short orbits present a conundrum, as in the most extreme cases their existence cannot be reconciled with current models of core accretion.…
Searching for GEMS: TOI-5349b is a Saturn-like planet orbiting a metal-rich early M-dwarf
Angeli Sandoval, Caleb I. Cañas, Shubham Kanodia +27
We report the confirmation and analysis of TOI-5349b, a transiting, warm, Saturn-like planet orbiting an early M-dwarf with a period of 3.3 days, which we confirmed as part o…
A New Approach to Compiling Exoatmospheric Target Lists And Quantifying the Ground-Based Resources Needed to Vet Them
Jennifer A. Burt, Robert T. Zellem, David R. Ciardi +8
Transiting exoplanet atmospheric characterization is currently in a golden age as dozens of exoplanet atmospheres are being studied by NASA's Hubble and James Webb Space Telescopes…
Searching for GEMS: The Occurrence of Giant Planets orbiting M-dwarfs within 100 pc
Rowen I. Glusman, Caleb I. Cañas, Shubham Kanodia +30
We present results from a systematic search for transiting short-period Giant Exoplanets around M-dwarf Stars (GEMS; days, ) within a distance-limi…
The NEID Earth Twin Survey. IV. Confirming an 89 d, Planet Orbiting a Nearby Sun-like Star
Mark R. Giovinazzi, Evan Fitzmaurice, Arvind F. Gupta +19
We present the confirmation of HD 190360 d, a warm (), low-mass () planet orbiting the nearb…
Searching for GEMS: TOI-7149~b an Inflated Giant Planet causing a 12% Transit of a Fully Convective M-dwarf
Shubham Kanodia, Caleb I. Cañas, Suvrath Mahadevan +20
We describe the discovery and characterization of TOI-7149~b, a 0.705 0.075 , 1.18 0.045 gas giant on a day period orbit transiting an M4V star w…
Spectroscopic Characterization of LOFAR Radio-emitting M dwarfs
E. Koo, G. Stefansson, R. D. Kavanagh +20
Recent observations with the LOw Frequency ARray (LOFAR) have revealed 19 nearby M dwarfs showing bright circularly polarised radio emission. One of the possible sources of such em…
An Earth-Sized Planet in a 5.4h Orbit Around a Nearby K dwarf
Kaya Han Taş, Gudmundur Stefansson, Syarief N. M. Fariz +25
We present the discovery and confirmation of the ultra-short period (USP) planet TOI-2431 b orbiting a nearby ( pc) late K star ( = $4109 \pm 28 \, {\rm…
Hundreds of TESS exoplanets might be larger than we thought
Te Han, Paul Robertson, Timothy D. Brandt +5
The radius of a planet is a fundamental parameter that probes its composition and habitability. Precise radius measurements are typically derived from the fraction of starlight blo…
The NEID Earth Twin Survey. III. Survey Performance After Three Years on Sky
Arvind F. Gupta, Evan Fitzmaurice, Suvrath Mahadevan +22
The NEID Earth Twin Survey (NETS) has been delivering a rich set of precise radial velocity (RV) measurements for 41 bright, nearby main sequence stars. Here, we describe the statu…
The NEID Earth Twin Survey. II. Dynamical Masses in Seven High-acceleration Star Systems
Mark R. Giovinazzi, Cullen H. Blake, Paul Robertson +26
We present a set of companion dynamical masses and orbital parameters of seven star systems from the NEID Earth Twin Survey with significant absolute astrometric accelerations betw…
Searching for GEMS: Confirmation of TOI-5573b, a Cool, Saturn-like Planet Orbiting An M-dwarf
