Interior and Climate Modeling of the Venus Zone Planet TOI-2285 b

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
As the discovery of exoplanets progresses at a rapid pace, the large number of known planets provides a pathway to assess the stellar and planetary properties that govern the climate evolution of terrestrial planets.

TESS Giants Transiting Giants. VI. Newly Discovered Hot Jupiters Provide Evidence for Efficient Obliquity Damping after the Main Sequence

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The degree of alignment between a star’s spin axis and the orbital plane of its planets (the stellar obliquity) is related to interesting and poorly understood processes that occur during planet formation and evolution.

Dynamics of Two Planets near a 2:1 Resonance: Case Studies of Known and Synthetic Exosystems on a Grid of Initial Configurations

open access: yesUniverse
The distribution of period ratios for 580 known two-planet systems is apparently nonuniform, with several sharp peaks and troughs. In particular, the vicinity of the 2:1 commensurability seems to have a deficit of systems.

WASP-69b’s Escaping Envelope Is Confined to a Tail Extending at Least 7 Rp

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Studying the escaping atmospheres of highly irradiated exoplanets is critical for understanding the physical mechanisms that shape the demographics of close-in planets.

The Epoch of Giant Planet Migration Planet Search Program. II. A Young Hot Jupiter Candidate around the AB Dor Member HS Psc

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We report the discovery of a hot Jupiter candidate orbiting HS Psc, a K7 (≈0.7 M _⊙ ) member of the ≈130 Myr AB Doradus moving group. Using radial velocities over 4 yr from the Habitable-zone Planet Finder spectrograph at the Hobby–Eberly Telescope, we ...

Inversion of Hydrogen-rich Atmosphere and Water Content for GJ 486b

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
GJ 486b is a close-in planet orbiting an M dwarf and is therefore expected to have undergone strong atmospheric escape. Motivated by theoretical and observational studies on the constraints of its water and atmosphere, we investigate which combinations ...

Water Evolution and Inventories of Super-Earths Orbiting Late M Dwarfs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Super-Earths orbiting M dwarf stars may be the most common habitable planets in the Universe. However, their habitability is threatened by intense irradiation from their host stars, which drives the escape of water to space and can lead to surface ...

Main-sequence exoplanet systems: tidal evolution

open access: yes
The easiest exoplanets to detect are those that orbit very close to their hoststars. As a result, even though these planets are quite rare, they represent amajor fraction of the current exoplanet population. A side-effect of theproximity between the planet and the star is that the two have strong mutualinteractions through a number of physical ...
