  • MOA-2020-BLG-208Lb: Cool Sub-Saturn-mass Planet within Predicted Desert
    We analyze the MOA-2020-BLG-208 gravitational microlensing event and present the discovery and characterization of a new planet, MOA-2020-BLG-208Lb, with an estimated sub-Saturn mass. With a mass ratio $q={3.17}_{-0.26}^{+0.28}\times {10}^{-4}$ , the planet lies near the peak of the mass-ratio function derived by the MOA collaboration and near the

  • TOI-2525 b and c: A Pair of Massive Warm Giant Planets with Strong Transit Timing Variations Revealed by TESS
    The K-type star TOI-2525 has an estimated mass of M = ${0.849}_{-0.033}^{+0.024}$ M ⊙ and radius of R = ${0.785}_{-0.007}^{+0.007}$ R ⊙ observed by the TESS mission in 22 sectors (within sectors 1 and 39). The TESS light curves yield significant transit events of two companions, which show strong transit timing variations (TTVs) with a

  • A puffy polar planet. The low density, hot Jupiter TOI-640 b is on a polar orbit
    TOI-640 b is a hot, puffy Jupiter with a mass of 0.57 ± 0.02 M J and radius of 1.72 ± 0.05 R J, orbiting a slightly evolved F-type star with a separation of 6.33 −0.06 +0.07 R ⋆. Through spectroscopic in-transit observations made with the HARPS spectrograph, we measured the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect, analysing both in-transit radial velocities and

  • CEERS Key Paper. III. The Diversity of Galaxy Structure and Morphology at z = 3-9 with JWST
    We present a comprehensive analysis of the evolution of the morphological and structural properties of a large sample of galaxies at z = 3-9 using early James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) CEERS NIRCam observations. Our sample consists of 850 galaxies at z > 3 detected in both Hubble Space Telescope (HST)/WFC3 and CEERS JWST/NIRCam images, enabling a

  • The geometric albedo of the hot Jupiter HD 189733b measured with CHEOPS
    Context. Measurements of the occultation of an exoplanet at visible wavelengths allow us to determine the reflective properties of a planetary atmosphere. The observed occultation depth can be translated into a geometric albedo. This in turn aids in characterising the structure and composition of an atmosphere by providing additional information on

  • The Undiscovered Ultradiffuse Galaxies of the Local Group
    Ultradiffuse galaxies (UDGs) are attractive candidates to probe cosmological models and test theories of galaxy formation at low masses; however, they are difficult to detect because of their low surface brightness. In the Local Group a handful of UDGs have been found to date, most of which are satellites of the Milky Way and M31, and only two are
