abstract
It is possible to learn about the orientation of a star's rotation axis by combining measurements of the star's rotation velocity ($v$) and its projection onto our line of sight ($v\sin i$). This idea has found many applications, including the investigation of the obliquities of stars with transiting planets. Here, we present a method for the probabilistic inference of the inclination of the star's rotation axis based on independent data sets that constrain $v$ and $v\sin i$. We also correct several errors and misconceptions that appear in the literature.

The Maunder Model and Catalog: Stellar Rotation, Bimodal Activity, and Magnetic Braking in Kepler Main-Sequence Stars
A hybrid self-supervised and consensus-supervised model yields calibrated rotation periods for 148,746 Kepler main-sequence stars and identifies bimodal signals where the longer mode is the true rotation.

Warm Sub-Saturns Orbiting Single Stars Are Spin-Orbit Aligned
Warm sub-Saturns around single cool stars are predominantly aligned whereas hot sub-Saturns are frequently misaligned (3.2σ), a separation-dependent transition the authors attribute to high-eccentricity migration.

Understanding eccentric temperate giants: an in-depth study of the architecture and stellar obliquity of the TOI-2134 system
Updated analysis of TOI-2134 with new TESS sectors and spectra confirms an inner mini-Neptune and outer eccentric sub-Saturn, measures their masses and radii, and reports a 59 degree obliquity for the outer planet via...
