Kavli Affiliate: Alan M. Levine | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: Planet formation models suggest that the formation of giant planets is significantly harder around low-mass stars, due to the scaling of protoplanetary disc masses with stellar mass. The discovery of giant planets orbiting such low-mass stars thus imposes strong constraints […]
Kavli Affiliate: Avi Shporer | First 5 Authors: Mayuko Mori, Akihiko Fukui, Teruyuki Hirano, Norio Narita, John H. Livingston | Summary: Spot-crossing transits offer a unique opportunity to probe spot properties such as temperature, size, and surface distribution. TOI-3884 is a rare system in which spot-crossing features are persistently observed during every transit. This is […]

Kavli Affiliate: Saul A. Rappaport | First 5 Authors: Veselin B. Kostov, Brian P. Powell, Aline U. Fornear, Marco Z. Di Fraia, Robert Gagliano | Summary: The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has surveyed nearly the entire sky in Full-Frame Image mode with a time resolution of 200 seconds to 30 minutes and a temporal […]
Kavli Affiliate: Herman L. Marshall | First 5 Authors: Niccolò Di Lalla, Niccolò Di Lalla, , , | Summary: We present the X-ray polarization observation of G21.5-0.9, a young Galactic supernova remnant (SNR), conducted with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) in October 2023, with a total livetime of approximately 837 ks. Using different analysis […]
Kavli Affiliate: Sara Seager | First 5 Authors: Isobel S. Lockley, David J. Armstrong, Jorge Fernández Fernández, Sarah Millholland, Henrik Knierim | Summary: We present the discovery of three sub-Neptune planets around TOI-1117, a Sun-like star with mass $0.97pm0.02M_{odot}$, radius $1.05pm0.03R_{odot}$, age $4.42pm1.50$ Gyr and effective temperature $5635pm62$ K. Light curves from TESS and LCOGT […]
Kavli Affiliate: Moritz Guenther | First 5 Authors: Attila Varga, Joel H. Kastner, Alexander S. Binks, Hans Moritz Guenther, Simon J. Murphy | Summary: The mid-M star TOI~1227 hosts among the youngest known transiting exoplanets. We have conducted new X-ray imaging and optical spectroscopic observations of TOI 1227 aimed at ascertaining its age and the […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael M. Fausnaugh | First 5 Authors: , , , , | Summary: We report the delivery to the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST) of tables containing Root Mean Square (RMS) Combined Differential Photometric Precision (CDPP) values for all TESS 2-min cadence targets with Science Processing Operations Center (SPOC) light curves in […]
Kavli Affiliate: Michael McDonald | First 5 Authors: Laurel White, Michael McDonald, Francesco Ubertosi, Massimo Gaspari, Julie Hlavacek-Larrondo | Summary: We present a new 8.5 ks Chandra observation of Abell 1885, obtained as part of the Cluster Evolution Reference Ensemble At Low-z (CEREAL) survey of ~200 low-z galaxy groups and clusters. These data reveal that […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Simcoe | First 5 Authors: Daichi Kashino, Simon J. Lilly, Jorryt Matthee, Ruari Mackenzie, Anna-Christina Eilers | Summary: We present a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between galaxies and the intergalactic medium (IGM) during the late stages of cosmic reionization, based on the complete JWST EIGER dataset. Using deep NIRCam $3.5,mathrm{mu […]
