The Orbital Eccentricity–Radius Distribution for Warm, Single Planets in TESS
The Astrophysical Journal LettersWe characterize the radius-dependent observed transiting eccentricity distribution of 219 warm ( P = 8–50 days) systems with only one transiting planetary candidate identified during Sectors 1–69 of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS ...

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering SciencesWe look at what astronomy from the Moon might be like over the next few decades. The Moon offers the possibility of installing large telescopes or interferometers with instruments larger than those on orbiting telescopes. We first present examples of ambitious science cases, in particular ideas that cannot be implemented from Earth.

Impact of Climate States and Seasons on Future Exo-Earth Observations
The Astrophysical JournalMany planetary parameters impact the climate state of Earth-like exoplanets and could vary significantly from those on Earth. However, some of these parameters may be impossible to observe, causing ambiguity in determining exoplanet climate and ...

Surprise Nondetection of Upsilon Andromedae b with MIRC-X and MYSTIC at the CHARA Array
The Astronomical JournalGround-based long baseline interferometry is a powerful tool for characterizing exoplanets that are too close to their host star to be imaged with single-dish telescopes. The CHARA Array can resolve companions down to 0.5 mas, allowing us in principle to

Dynamic mineral clouds on HD 189733b. II. Monte Carlo radiative transfer for 3D cloudy exoplanet atmospheres : combining scattering and emission spectra [PDF]
, 2017 G.L. and Ch.H. highlight the financial support of the European community under the FP7 ERC starting grant 257431.Context. As the 3D spatial properties of exoplanet atmospheres are being observed in increasing detail by current and new generations of ...

Saturns, but Not Super-Jupiters, Occur More Frequently in the Presence of Inner Super-Earths
The Astrophysical JournalStudies from recent years have reached different conclusions regarding how frequently super-Earths are accompanied by long-period giant planets and vice versa. This relation has been predicted to be mass dependent by planet-formation models.

Minimizing Star-spot Contamination of Exoplanet Transit Spectroscopy Using Alternate Normalization
The Astronomical JournalRecently, M. H. Currie et al. (2023) simulated the detection of molecules in the atmospheres of temperate rocky exoplanets transiting nearby M-dwarf stars.

Astronomy Education Research Down Under [PDF]
, 2005 A review of research conducted in Australasia into students' concept development in astronomy identifies a number of learning difficulties pertinent to astronomy, such as the lack of prior knowledge, intuitive or naive beliefs, juxtaposition and frames ...

Comparing Results from Two Uniform Phase-curve Surveys
The Astronomical JournalWe present a comparison of the two most recent and comprehensive Spitzer phase curve studies—L. Dang et al. and M. R. Swain et al.—which report analyses of the Spitzer 4.5 μ m phase curves.
