The Polar Orbit of TOI-2374 b, a Planet in the Neptunian Ridge

The Astronomical Journal
The “Neptunian ridge” is a recently identified peak in the frequency of planets with sizes between that of Neptune and Saturn orbiting their host stars with periods between 3 and 6 days.

Identifying Exoplanet Candidates Using WaveCeptionNet

The Astronomical Journal
In this study, we propose a wavelet-transform-based light curve representation method and a CNN model based on Inception-v3 for fast classification of light curves, enabling the quick discovery of potentially interesting targets from massive data ...

A Comprehensive Analysis of Spitzer 4.5 μm Phase Curves of Hot Jupiters

The Astronomical Journal
Although exoplanetary science was not initially projected to be a substantial part of the Spitzer mission, its exoplanet observations set the stage for current and future surveys with JWST and Ariel.

The 0.5MJ transiting exoplanet WASP-13b [PDF]

, 2009
We report the discovery of WASP-13b, a low-mass Mp = 0.46+0.06 ?0.05 MJ transiting exoplanet with an orbital period of 4.35298 +/- 0.00004 days. The transit has a depth of 9 mmag, and although our follow-up photometry does not allow us to constrain the ...

A Direct Comparison between the Use of Double Gray and Multiwavelength Radiative Transfer in a General Circulation Model with and without Radiatively Active Clouds

The Astrophysical Journal
Inhomogeneous cloud formation and wavelength-dependent phenomena are expected to shape hot Jupiter atmospheres. We present a general circulation model with multiwavelength “picket fence” radiative transfer and radiatively active, temperature-dependent ...

Early Accretion of Large Amounts of Solids for Directly Imaged Exoplanets

The Astrophysical Journal
As the number of planetary-mass objects (PMOs; ⪅13 M _Jupiter ) at wider separation (⪆10 au) grows, there is emerging evidence that they form differently from their higher-mass brown dwarf counterparts.

Helium in the Extended Atmosphere of the Warm Superpuff TOI-1420b

The Astronomical Journal
Superpuffs are planets with exceptionally low densities ( ρ ≲ 0.1 g cm ^−3 ) and core masses ( M _c ≲ 5 M _⊕ ). Many lower-mass ( M _p ≲ 10 M _⊕ ) superpuffs are expected to be unstable to catastrophic mass loss via photoevaporation and/or boil-off ...
