kPAM 2.0: Feedback Control for Category-Level Robotic Manipulation

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Gao | First 5 Authors: Wei Gao, Russ Tedrake, , , | Summary: In this paper, we explore generalizable, perception-to-action robotic manipulation for precise, contact-rich tasks. In particular, we contribute a framework for closed-loop robotic manipulation that automatically handles a category of objects, despite potentially unseen object instances and significant intra-category variations […]

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME) V: A Sub-Neptune Transiting a Young Star in a Newly Discovered 250 Myr Association

Kavli Affiliate: Gabor Furesz | First 5 Authors: Benjamin M. Tofflemire, Aaron C. Rizzuto, Elisabeth R. Newton, Adam L. Kraus, Andrew W. Mann | Summary: The detection and characterization of young planetary systems offers a direct path to study the processes that shape planet evolution. We report on the discovery of a sub-Neptune-size planet orbiting […]

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME) IV: Three small planets orbiting a 120 Myr-old star in the Pisces–Eridanus stream

Kavli Affiliate: Alan M. Levine | First 5 Authors: Elisabeth R. Newton, Andrew W. Mann, Adam L. Kraus, John H. Livingston, Andrew Vanderburg | Summary: Young exoplanets can offer insight into the evolution of planetary atmospheres, compositions, and architectures. We present the discovery of the young planetary system TOI 451 (TIC 257605131, Gaia DR2 4844691297067063424). […]
