VaTEST. II. Statistical Validation of 11 TESS-detected Exoplanets Orbiting K-type Stars

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is an all-sky survey mission designed to find transiting exoplanets orbiting nearby bright stars. It has identified more than 329 transiting exoplanets, and almost 6000 candidates remain unvalidated. In

ASTEROSEISMIC DETERMINATION OF OBLIQUITIES OF THE EXOPLANET SYSTEMS KEPLER-50 AND KEPLER-65 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Results on the obliquity of exoplanet host stars—the angle between the stellar spin axis and the planetary orbital axis—provide important diagnostic information for theories describing planetary formation.

Starshade rendezvous: exoplanet sensitivity and observing strategy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomical Telescopes Instruments and Systems, 2021
Launching a starshade to rendezvous with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman) would provide the first opportunity to directly image the habitable zones (HZs) of nearby sunlike stars in the coming decade.

Giant Outer Transiting Exoplanet Mass (GOT ’EM) Survey. III. Recovery and Confirmation of a Temperate, Mildly Eccentric, Single-transit Jupiter Orbiting TOI-2010

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Large-scale exoplanet surveys like the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission are powerful tools for discovering large numbers of exoplanet candidates.

Aerosols in Exoplanet Atmospheres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Observations of exoplanet atmospheres have shown that aerosols, like in the Solar System, are common across a variety of temperatures and planet types. The formation and distribution of these aerosols are inextricably intertwined with the composition and thermal structure of the atmosphere.

TOI-2525 b and c: A Pair of Massive Warm Giant Planets with Strong Transit Timing Variations Revealed by TESS

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The K-type star TOI-2525 has an estimated mass of M = ${0.849}_{-0.033}^{+0.024}$ M _⊙ and radius of R = ${0.785}_{-0.007}^{+0.007}$ R _⊙ observed by the TESS mission in 22 sectors (within sectors 1 and 39).

Search for (sub)stellar Companions of Exoplanet Hosts by Exploring the Second ESA-Gaia Data Release

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
We present the latest results of an ongoing multiplicity survey of exoplanet hosts, which was initiated at the Astrophysical Institute and University Observatory Jena, using data from the second data release of the ESA-Gaia mission.

Speckle Observations of TESS Exoplanet Host Stars: Understanding the Binary Exoplanet Host Star Orbital Period Distribution [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Journal, 2021
We present high-resolution speckle interferometric imaging observations of TESS exoplanet host stars using the NN-EXPLORE Exoplanet and Stellar Speckle Imager instrument at the 3.5 m WIYN telescope.

Effect of the exoplanet magnetic field topology on its magnetospheric radio emission [PDF]

open access: yesA&A, Forthcoming article, 2018, 2018
The magnetized wind from stars that impact exoplanets should lead to radio emissions. According to the scaling laws derived in the solar system, the radio emission should depend on the stellar wind, interplanetary magnetic field, and topology of the exoplanet magnetosphere. The aim of this study is to calculate the dissipated power and subsequent radio
