Kepler-80 Revisited: Assessing the Participation of a Newly Discovered Planet in the Resonant Chain
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 In this paper, we consider the chain of resonances in the Kepler-80 system and evaluate the impact that the additional member of the resonant chain discovered by Shallue & Vanderburg has on the dynamics of the system and the physical parameters that can ...

The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We study the emergent spectral fluxes of transiting hot Jupiters, using secondary eclipses from Spitzer. To achieve a large and uniform sample, we have reanalyzed all secondary eclipses for all hot Jupiters observed by Spitzer at 3.6 and/or 4.5 μ m.

Validating AU Microscopii d with Transit Timing Variations
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 AU Mic is a young (22 Myr), nearby exoplanetary system that exhibits excess transit timing variations (TTVs) that cannot be accounted for by the two known transiting planets nor stellar activity.
