Revised Masses for Low-density Planets Orbiting the Disordered M-dwarf System TOI-1266

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present an analysis of 126 new radial velocity measurements from the MAROON-X spectrograph to investigate the TOI-1266 system, which hosts two known transiting sub-Neptunes at 10.8 and 18.8 days.

The Implications of Thermal Hydrodynamic Atmospheric Escape on the TRAPPIST-1 Planets

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
JWST observations of the seven-planet TRAPPIST-1 system will provide an excellent opportunity to test outcomes of stellar-driven evolution of terrestrial planetary atmospheres, including atmospheric escape, ocean loss, and abiotic oxygen production ...

The Need for Laboratory Measurements and Ab Initio Studies to Aid Understanding of Exoplanetary Atmospheres

open access: yes, 2019
We are now on a clear trajectory for improvements in exoplanet observations that will revolutionize our ability to characterize their atmospheric structure, composition, and circulation, from gas giants to rocky planets.

Assessing Core-powered Mass Loss in the Context of Early Boil-off: Minimal Long-lived Mass Loss for the Sub-Neptune Population

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We develop a Python-based state-of-the-art sub-Neptune evolution model that incorporates both the post-formation boil-off at young ages ≤1 Myr and long-lived core-powered mass loss (∼Gyr) from interior cooling.

Helium in Exoplanet Exospheres: Orbital and Stellar Influences

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Searches for helium in the exospheres of exoplanets via the metastable near-infrared triplet have yielded 17 detections and 40 nondetections. We performed a comprehensive reanalysis of published studies to investigate the influence of stellar X-ray and ...

The Receding Cosmic Shoreline of Mid-to-late M Dwarfs: Measurements of Active Lifetimes Worsen Challenges for Atmosphere Retention by Rocky Exoplanets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Detecting and characterizing the atmospheres of terrestrial exoplanets is a key goal of exoplanetary astronomy, one that may now be within reach given the upcoming campaign to conduct a large-scale survey of rocky M-dwarf worlds with the James Webb Space
