  • Transit timing variations of AU Microscopii b and c
    Here we report large-amplitude transit timing variations (TTVs) for AU Microcopii b and c as detected in combined TESS (2018, 2020) and CHEOPS (2020, 2021) transit observations. AU Mic is a young planetary system with a debris disk and two transiting warm Neptunes. A TTV on the order of several minutes was previously reported for AU Mic b, which

  • TOI-530b: a giant planet transiting an M-dwarf detected by TESS
    We report the discovery of TOI-530b, a transiting Saturn-like planet around an M0.5V dwarf, delivered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). The host star is located at a distance of 147.7 ± 0.6 pc with a radius of R * = 0.54 ± 0.03 R ⊙ and a mass of M * = 0.53 ± 0.02 M ⊙. We verify the planetary nature of the transit signals by

  • The synchrony of production and escape: half the bright Lyα emitters at z ≍ 2 have Lyman continuum escape fractions ≍50
    The ionizing photon escape fraction [Lyman continuum (LyC) f esc] of star-forming galaxies is the single greatest unknown in the reionization budget. Stochastic sightline effects prohibit the direct separation of LyC leakers from non-leakers at significant redshifts. Here we circumvent this uncertainty by inferring f esc using resolved (R > 4000)

  • The Pristine survey - XV. A CFHT ESPaDOnS view on the Milky Way halo and disc populations
    We present a one-dimensional, local thermodynamic equilibrium homogeneous analysis of 132 stars observed at high resolution with ESPaDOnS. This represents the largest sample observed at high resolution (R ~ 40 000) from the Pristine survey. This sample is based on the first version of the Pristine catalogue and covers the full range of

  • The Principle of Maximum Entropy and the Distribution of Mass in Galaxies
    We do not have a final answer to the question of why galaxies choose a particular internal mass distribution. Here we examine whether the distribution is set by thermodynamic equilibrium (TE). Traditionally, TE is discarded for a number of reasons including the inefficiency of two-body collisions to thermalize the mass distribution in a Hubble time

  • The Observed Evolution of the Stellar Mass-Halo Mass Relation for Brightest Central Galaxies
    We quantify evolution in the cluster-scale stellar mass-halo mass (SMHM) relation's parameters using 2323 clusters and brightest central galaxies (BCGs) over the redshift range 0.03 ≤ z ≤ 0.60. The precision on the inferred SMHM parameters is improved by including the magnitude gap (m gap) between the BCG and fourth-brightest cluster member (M14)
