Formation of Ultra-short-period Planets in Hot Jupiter Systems: Application to WASP-47

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The WASP-47 system is notable as the first known system hosting both inner and outer low-mass planetary companions around a hot Jupiter, with an ultra-short-period (USP) planet as the innermost planetary companion.

Confirmation of a Non‐Transiting Planet in the Habitable Zone of the Nearby M Dwarf L 98‐59

Astronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Only 40 exoplanetary systems with five or more planets are currently known. These systems are crucial for our understanding of planet formation and planet‐planet interaction. The M dwarf L 98‐59 has previously been found to show evidence of five planets, three of which are transiting.

Dynamical Mass of the Exoplanet Host Star HR 8799

The Astronomical Journal, 2022
Abstract HR 8799 is a young A5/F0 star hosting four directly imaged giant planets at wide separations (∼16–78 au), which are undergoing orbital motion and have been continuously monitored with adaptive optics imaging since their discovery over a decade ago. We present a dynamical mass of HR 8799 using 130 epochs of relative astrometry of

The HD 191939 Exoplanet System is Well Aligned and Flat

The Astronomical Journal
We report the sky-projected spin–orbit angle λ for HD 191939 b, the innermost planet in a six-planet system, using Keck/KPF to detect the Rossiter–McLaughlin (RM) effect.

Statistical Distribution Function of Orbital Spacings in Planetary Systems

The Astronomical Journal
The minimum orbital separation of planets in long-stable planetary systems is often modeled as a step function, parameterized with a single value ${{\rm{\Delta }}}_{\min }$ (measured in mutual Hill radius of the two neighboring planets).

Photochemical Hazes Dramatically Alter Temperature Structure and Atmospheric Circulation in 3D Simulations of Hot Jupiters

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Photochemical hazes are expected to form in hot Jupiter atmospheres and may explain the strong scattering slopes and muted spectral features observed in the transmission spectra of many hot Jupiters.

Amplifying Resonant Repulsion with Inflated Young Planets, Overlooked Inner Planets, and Nonzero Initial Δ

The Astrophysical Journal
Most multiplanet systems around mature (∼5 Gyr old) host stars are nonresonant. Even the near-resonant planet pairs still display 1%–2% positive deviation from perfect period commensurabilities (Δ) near first-order mean motion resonances (MMRs). Resonant

State‐Dependence of Polar Amplification in an Idealized GCM

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Polar amplification (PA) is a robust feature of contemporary climate change, but its state‐dependence across different climate conditions is poorly understood despite potential relevance to paleoclimate records and future projections. Here we examine the state‐dependence of PA across a wide range of climate states in an idealized moist general

Secular orbital dynamics of the innermost exoplanet of the $$\upsilon $$-Andromedæ system

Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy, 2023
Abstract We introduce a quasi-periodic restricted Hamiltonian to describe the secular motion of a small-mass planet in a multi-planetary system. In particular, we refer to the motion of $$\upsilon $$

Olivine‐Ahrensite Phase Relations in the Mg2SiO4‐Fe2SiO4 System as a Function of Temperature

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Olivine and ahrensite are the primary components of the interiors of Fe‐rich terrestrial planets and meteorites, making their phase relations crucial for planetary science. Moreover, their phase relations can be used for calibrating large‐volume high‐pressure devices such as multi‐anvil apparatus.
