Origins of Hot Jupiters
read the original abstract
Hot Jupiters were the first exoplanets to be discovered around main sequence stars and astonished us with their close-in orbits. They are a prime example of how exoplanets have challenged our textbook, solar-system inspired story of how planetary systems form and evolve. More than twenty years after the discovery of the first hot Jupiter, there is no consensus on their predominant origin channel. Three classes of hot Jupiter creation hypotheses have been proposed: in situ formation, disk migration, and high eccentricity tidal migration. Although no origin channel alone satisfactorily explains all the evidence, two major origins channels together plausibly account for properties of hot Jupiters themselves and their connections to other exoplanet populations.

Where Do Hot Jupiters Come From? Revisiting Tidal Disruption and Ejection in High-Eccentricity Migration
Planets with realistic dense cores survive close star encounters without total disruption, allowing more to circularize into hot Jupiters or be ejected after mass loss.

An Aligned Very-Low-Mass Star Orbiting an M dwarf and Obliquity Patterns Across Giant Planets, Brown Dwarfs, and Binary Stars
First obliquity measurement in an M dwarf binary shows alignment, with tentative evidence that aligned orbits around cool stars and wide separations also hold for brown dwarfs and binaries.

The NUV transit of XO-3 b
XO-3 b exhibits a 30-70% deeper NUV transit depth of 0.1371 and a 22-minute late center relative to the optical ephemeris, with an extremely low estimated mass-loss rate and a bow-shock model that predicts the opposit...

Planetesimal-Driven Instabilities in Resonant Chains of Cold Neptunes and Their Dynamical Outcomes
Planetesimal disks with 1-4% of the planetary mass disrupt resonant Neptune chains, triggering instabilities that scatter planets to ~0.1 au orbits and enable hot Neptune formation on 10-100 Myr timescales.

Chemical Abundances Shape History (CASH). I. A Link between Giant Planets Orbital Periods and Host Stellar C/O Ratios
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.

Uncovering the Rapidly Evolving Orbits of the Dynamic TOI-201 System
TOI-201 has three planets whose co-transiting configuration will end in 200 years due to Kozai-Lidov oscillations driven by mutual inclinations.

A tidally detached super Neptune on a strongly misaligned retrograde orbit
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.

Sensitivity of Dry Lava Planet Atmospheric Emission Spectra to Changes in Lava Compositions
Simulations indicate that order-of-magnitude changes in TiO2 and SiO2 abundances in lava melts produce distinguishable TiO, SiO, and SiO2 features in dry lava planet emission spectra, potentially observable with 12 JW...

Observational and Dynamical Constraints on an Unseen Outer Perturber in the GJ 436 Hot Neptune System
Archival RV and astrometric data plus three-body simulations constrain an unseen outer perturber in the GJ 436 system to sub-Jovian masses at a_c ≳ 6.8 AU, supporting Kozai-Lidov migration as the source of the hot Nep...

An Outer Giant Planet or Brown Dwarf in the 51 Pegasi System?
Tentative evidence for a super-Jupiter at 15-100 AU or brown dwarf at 20-170 AU in 51 Pegasi from RV curvature, but the signal is likely driven by Lick/Hamilton instrument drift.

JWST Exoplanetary Worlds and Elemental Survey (JEWELS) II: Condensation Temperature Trends and Galactic Chemical Evolution in JWST Planet-Hosting Stars
Condensation temperature trends in JWST planet-host stars are independent of stellar and planetary properties after GCE correction, indicating mixed origins from galactic evolution and stellar processes.
