NGTS-8b and NGTS-9b: two non-inflated hot-Jupiters

open access: yes, 2020
We report the discovery, by the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS), of two hot-Jupiters NGTS-8b and NGTS-9b. These orbit a V = 13.68 K0V star (Teff = 5241 +/- 50 K) with a period of 2.49970 days, and a V = 12.80 F8V star (Teff = 6330 +/- 130 K) in 4 ...

Stellar Obliquities and Planetary Alignments (SOPA). I. Spin–Orbit Measurements of Three Transiting Hot Jupiters: WASP-72b, WASP-100b, and WASP-109b

open access: yes, 2018
We report measurements of the sky-projected spin-orbit angles for three transiting hot Jupiters, two of which are in nearly polar orbits, WASP-100b and WASP-109b, and a third in a low-obliquity orbit, WASP-72b. We obtained these measurements by observing

On the Occurrence Rate of Hot Jupiters in Different Stellar Environments

open access: yes, 2015
Many hot Jupiters (HJs) are detected by the Doppler and transit techniques. From surveys using these two techniques, however, the measured HJ occurrence rates differ by a factor of two or more.

Wide Binary Orbits Are Preferentially Aligned with the Orbits of Small Planets, but Probably Not Hot Jupiters

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Studying the relative orientations of the orbits of exoplanets and wide-orbiting binary companions (semimajor axis greater than 100 au) can shed light on how planets form and evolve in binary systems. Previous observations by multiple groups discovered a

Single-star Warm-Jupiter Systems Tend to Be Aligned, Even around Hot Stellar Hosts: No T eff–λ Dependency

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The stellar obliquity distribution of warm-Jupiter systems is crucial for constraining the dynamical history of Jovian exoplanets, as the warm Jupiters’ tidal detachment likely preserves their primordial obliquity.

HATS-25B THROUGH HATS-30B: A HALF-DOZEN NEW INFLATED TRANSITING HOT JUPITERS from the HATSOUTH SURVEY

open access: yes, 2016
We report six new inflated hot Jupiters (HATS-25b through HATS-30b) discovered using the HATSouth global network of automated telescopes. The planets orbit stars with V magnitudes in the range of ̃12-14 and have masses in the largely populated 0.5MJ--0 ...

Damping Obliquities of Hot Jupiter Hosts by Resonance Locking

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
When orbiting hotter stars, hot Jupiters are often highly inclined relative to their host star equator planes. By contrast, hot Jupiters orbiting cooler stars are more aligned.

Shedding Light on Desert Dwellers

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The “sub-Jovian desert” (2 ≲  R _p  ≲ 10 R _⊕ , periods ≲3 days) is sparsely populated but no longer empty. Recent surveys have revealed that planets residing in the desert are dense ( ρ  ≳ 1 g cm ^−3 ), massive (∼10−50 M _⊕ ), and orbit metal-rich stars

A Larger Sample Confirms Small Planets around Hot Stars Are Misaligned

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The distribution of stellar obliquities provides critical insight into the formation and evolution pathways of exoplanets. In the past decade, it was found that hot stars hosting hot Jupiters are more likely to have high obliquities than cool stars, but ...
