The Gap–Giant Association: Are Planets Hiding in the Gaps?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A handful of stars are known to host both an inner system of multiple transiting planets and an outer giant planet. These systems all feature a prominent gap between the orbits of two of the transiting planets, distinguishing them from typical ...

Masses and Densities of Dwarf Planet Satellites Measured with ALMA

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
We have used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array to measure precise absolute astrometric positions and detect the astrometric wobble of dwarf planet Orcus and its satellite Vanth over a complete orbit.

Planning and Control Framework for a Quadruped Robot With Changeable Configuration

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Multiconfiguration quadruped robots enhance adaptability by switching between mammal‐like and reptile‐like morphologies. This study presents a nonlinear constraint‐based motion planner integrated with a hierarchical whole‐body controller, enabling robust configuration switching and locomotion on complex terrains. Experiments on slopes, irregular bricks,

Breaking Giant Chains: Early-stage Instabilities in Long-period Giant Planet Systems

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Orbital evolution is a critical process that sculpts planetary systems, particularly during their early stages where planet–disk interactions are expected to lead to the formation of resonant chains.

Universal Entanglement and an Information‐Complete Quantum Theory

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This Perspective summarize an informationcomplete quantum theory which describes a fully quantum world without any classical systems and concepts. Here spacetime/gravity, having to be a physical quantum system, universally entangles matter (matter fermions and their gauge fields) as an indivisible trinity, and encodes information‐complete physical ...

Giant Outer Transiting Exoplanet Mass (GOT ‘EM) Survey. V. Two Giant Planets in Kepler-511 but Only One Ran Away

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Systems hosting multiple giant planets are important laboratories for understanding planetary formation and migration processes. We present a nearly decade-long Doppler spectroscopy campaign from the HIRES instrument on the Keck-I telescope to ...

A Massive Hot Jupiter Orbiting a Metal-rich Early M Star Discovered in the TESS Full-frame Images

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Observations and statistical studies have shown that giant planets are rare around M dwarfs compared with Sun-like stars. The formation mechanism of these extreme systems has remained under debate for decades. With the help of the TESS mission and ground-

Synapsids and sensitivity: Broad survey of tetrapod trigeminal canal morphology supports an evolutionary trend of increasing facial tactile specialization in the mammal lineage

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The trigeminus nerve (cranial nerve V) is a large and significant conduit of sensory information from the face to the brain, with its three branches extending over the head to innervate a wide variety of integumentary sensory receptors, primarily tactile.

Hiding in Plain Sight: Rethinking the Size and Complexity of Iron Age Hillforts in NW Iberia Thanks to Aerial Archaeology and Geophysics

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper tackles one key limitation in the analysis of Iron Age communities in the Northwestern Iberian Peninsula: the limited exploration of areas beyond the fortified settlements known as castros (hillforts). The vast majority of archaeological studies have focused exclusively on the areas inside the walls of these settlements, which are ...

Searching for GEMS: TOI-7149 b, an Inflated Giant Planet Causing a 12% Transit of a Fully Convective M-dwarf

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We describe the discovery and characterization of TOI-7149 b, a 0.705 ± 0.075 M _J , 1.18 ± 0.045 R _J gas giant on a ∼2.65 days period orbit transiting an M4V star with a mass of 0.344 ± 0.030 M _⊙ and an effective temperature of 3363 ± 59 K. The planet
