Reassessment of 12 TTV claims finds only two systems with compelling unique solutions for the perturbing planet, six with multiple viable solutions, and two with weak evidence overall.
Higher host-star C/O ratios correlate with longer orbital periods for giant planets, based on spectra from 598 stars and supported by pebble-formation models.
Generates and publicly releases 81,498 detrended Kepler light curves plus a catalog of 87 periodic variables (26 new) in the 2.5 Gyr cluster NGC 6819 using Gaia DR3 for membership.
Dust particles inspiraling under PR drag are temporarily trapped in MMRs, escape due to overstability of librations, then undergo stochastic scattering with predicted fractions for planetary collision, sublimation, or ejection via an analytic epicycle model and Monte Carlo method.
N-body simulations show that 14 Herculis's orbital architecture requires primordial ejection of an additional massive planet.
TOI-5882, a lithium-enriched subgiant with a brown dwarf companion, shows enrichment consistent with engulfment of a super-Earth to Neptune-mass planet.
TOI-4311 hosts a 0.99-day super-Earth (1.38 R_earth, 4.5 M_earth) and 15-day sub-Neptune (2.47 R_earth), plus a candidate 38-day planet, with the dense inner planet potentially challenging formation theories given the host's galactic population.
TOI-1710 b has a true obliquity of 149 degrees indicating retrograde motion, favoring high-eccentricity migration via planet-planet scattering and Kozai-Lidov cycles for this tidally detached super-Neptune.
A transit search on TESS Cycle 1 full-frame images produced 10,091 new planet candidates down to T=16 mag, more than doubling the known TESS total, with one hot Jupiter confirmed by radial velocity.
Stellar spindown cannot trigger secular resonance crossings in regular peas-in-a-pod systems, requiring inner-planet migration instead, and resonance crossing times vary across stellar evolution tracks.
No exomoon signal detected in radial velocity data of β Pictoris b; upper limits reach 80 Earth masses at 1-day periods and 1 Jupiter mass at 200-day periods.
Simulations using occurrence rates rank HWO ExEP stars by probability of hosting a temperate terrestrial planet or moon, reaching up to 50% for some systems.
N-body simulations demonstrate long-term dynamical stability of the HD 20794 system across a range of inclinations, with planet d identified as the lowest-mass high-eccentricity HZ-crossing planet.
Joint radial-velocity analysis revises GJ 3378b's period to 21.45 days and minimum mass to 2.3 Earth masses, placing the habitable-zone planet near the cosmic shoreline.
TOI-159 b is confirmed as the hottest known eccentric hot Jupiter (e = 0.24) with a 13-sigma Keplerian detection around a young gamma Doradus star, including a preliminary low-resolution transmission spectrum.
Astronomical objects from asteroids to stars mostly follow a cohesive mass-density sequence reflecting gravitational contraction and nuclear ignition, while compact stellar remnants deviate from it.
New observations confirm a mini-Neptune (9.23 d, circular) and eccentric sub-Saturn (95.85 d, e=0.31) around TOI-2134 with 59 deg obliquity for the outer planet.
CARMApy provides a Python interface to the ExoCARMA microphysics code, enabling simulation of cloud particle size distributions and rates in exoplanet atmospheres with claimed consistency to prior versions and speed gains of 1.9x single-threaded and 3.8x multithreaded.
