A Unified Treatment of Kepler Occurrence to Trace Planet Evolution. I. Methodology [PDF]
Astronomical Journal, 2023 We present Kepler exoplanet occurrence rates for planets between 0.5 and 16 R ⊕ and between 1 and 400 days. To measure occurrence, we use a nonparametric method via a kernel density estimator and use bootstrap random sampling for uncertainty estimation ...

Dynamical Evolution of Closely Packed Multiple Planetary Systems Subject to Atmospheric Mass Loss
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 A gap in exoplanets’ radius distribution has been widely attributed to the photoevaporation threshold of their progenitors’ gaseous envelope. Giant impacts can also lead to substantial mass loss.

Towards a new era in giant exoplanet characterisation [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2022 Determining the composition of giant exoplanets is crucial for understanding their origin and evolution. However, the planetary bulk composition is not measured directly but must be deduced from a combination of mass-radius measurements, knowledge of the

The impact of time-dependent stellar activity on exoplanet atmospheres [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022 M-dwarfs are thought to be hostile environments for exoplanets. Stellar events are very common on such stars. These events might cause the atmospheres of exoplanets to change significantly over time.

A calibration point for stellar evolution from massive star asteroseismology [PDF]
Nature Astronomy, 2023 Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite data of the massive star HD 192575 reveal pulsation frequencies that allow the inference of its convective core mass and interior rotation profile, thus providing a calibration point for interior chemical and angular

TOI-1136 is a Young, Coplanar, Aligned Planetary System in a Pristine Resonant Chain
The Astronomical Journal, 2023 Convergent disk migration has long been suspected to be responsible for forming planetary systems with a chain of mean-motion resonances (MMRs). Dynamical evolution over time could disrupt the delicate resonant configuration. We present TOI-1136, a 700 ±
