TOI-1670 c, a 40 day Orbital Period Warm Jupiter in a Compact System, Is Well Aligned
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 We report the measurement of the sky-projected obliquity angle λ of the warm Jovian exoplanet TOI-1670 c via the Rossiter–McLaughlin effect. We observed the transit window during UT 2023 April 20 for 7 continuous hours with NEID on the 3.5 m WIYN ...

Classification of Trajectories in a Two-planet Exosystem Using the Generalized Three-body Problem
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We deploy the theory of the generalized three-body problem to describe an exosystem composed of a host star, a transiting Jupiter-sized exoplanet, and an Earth-sized exoplanet.

Atmospheres on Nonsynchronized Eccentric-tilted Exoplanets. I. Dynamical Regimes [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2019 Abstract Relatively long-period, nonsynchronized planets—such as warm Jupiters—potentially retain the primordial rotation, eccentricity, and obliquity that might encapsulate information on planetary climate and formation processes. To date, there has not been a systematic study on climate patterns on these planets that will significantly

Eccentric debris belts reveal the dynamical history of the companion exoplanet
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022 ABSTRACT In recent years, a number of eccentric debris belts have been observed in extrasolar systems. The most common explanation for their shape is the presence of a nearby eccentric planetary companion. The gravitational perturbation from such a companion would induce periodic eccentricity variations on the planetesimals in the belt ...

The Gemini Planet Imager Exoplanet Survey: Dynamical Mass of the Exoplanet β Pictoris b from Combined Direct Imaging and Astrometry [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2020 Abstract We present new observations of the planet β Pictoris b from 2018 with the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI), the first GPI observations following conjunction. Based on these new measurements, we perform a joint orbit fit to the available relative astrometry from ground-based imaging, the Hipparcos Intermediate Astrometric Data (IAD ...
