Leveraging Impact Parameter to Mitigate the Transit Light Source Effect: Early Insights from TRAPPIST-1

Ana Glidden, Alexander I. Shapiro, Sara Seager +19

Stellar activity complicates exoplanet transmission spectra, particularly for smaller planets around M dwarfs with JWST. The transit light source (TLS) effect, the imprinting of sp…

Mapping Stellar Heterogeneities with the Nautilus Space Observatory

Adina D. Feinstein, Jeff Valenti, Julien de Wit +9

Stellar photospheric heterogeneities, such as starspots and faculae, are a fundamental limitation for exoplanet transmission spectroscopy. Inhomogeneous surfaces can imprint wavele…

Nautilus: Fast Time-Resolved Spectroscopy of GKM Stellar Flares and Their Implications for Planetary Habitability

Chia-Lung Lin, Adina D. Feinstein, Jeff Valenti +10

Low-mass GKM dwarfs are prime targets for finding habitable-zone Earth-sized planets, but their frequent flares, especially on M~dwarfs, can strongly affect planetary atmospheres t…

Unlocking HST's Stellar Treasure Trove: Stellar Activity Minima for HAT-P-11 Offer Prime Windows for Transmission Spectroscopy

Prajwal Niraula, Benjamin V. Rackham, Julien de Wit +4

HAT-P-11 is a well-studied, active K dwarf hosting an eccentric, misaligned transiting sub-Neptune. As part of the HST Stellar Treasure Trove program (HST-AR-17551), we analyze abs…

TOI-7166 b: A Habitable Zone mini-Neptune planet around a nearby low-mass star

Khalid Barkaoui, Francisco J. Pozuelos, Benjamin V. Rackham +41

We present the discovery and validation of TOI-7166b, a 2.01+/-0.05R_Earth planet orbiting a nearby low-mass star. We validated the planet by combining TESS and multi-color high-pr…

Comprehensive Ab Initio Quantum Computations of CO-H and CO-He Collisional Properties

Prajwal Niraula, Laurent Wiesenfeld, Nejmeddine Jaïdane +6

We present comprehensive \textsl{ab initio} fully quantum calculations of CO--H and CO--He collisional properties. Our framework combines CCSD(T) pote…
