We obtained spectra of the pre-main sequence star AU Microscopii during a transit of its Neptune-sized planet to investigate its orbit and atmosphere. We used the high-dispersion near-infrared spectrograph IRD on the Subaru telescope to detect the Doppler shadow from the planet and constrain the projected stellar obliquity. Modeling of the observed planetary Doppler shadow suggests a spin-orbit alignment of the system ($lambda=-4.7_{-6.4}^{+6.8}$ degrees), but additional observations are needed to confirm this finding. We use both the IRD data and spectra obtained with NIRSPEC on Keck-II to search for absorption in the 1083 nm line of metastable triplet He I by the planets atmosphere and place an upper limit for the equivalent width of 3.7 mAA at 99 $%$ confidence. With this limit and a Parker wind model we constrain the escape rate from the atmosphere to $<0.15-0.45, M_{oplus}$ Gyr$^{-1}$, comparable to the rates predicted by an XUV energy-limited escape calculation and hydrodynamic models, but refinement of the planet mass is needed for rigorous tests.
Here, we study the dichotomy of the escaping atmosphere of the newly discovered close-in exoplanet AU Mic b. On one hand, the high EUV stellar flux is expected to cause a strong atmospheric escape in AU Mic b. On the other hand, the wind of this youn
We report measurements of the sky-projected spin-orbit angle for AU,Mic,b, a Neptune-size planet orbiting a very young ($sim20$,Myr) nearby pre-main sequence M dwarf star which also hosts a bright, edge-on, debris disk. The planet was recently discov
HIP 67522 b is a 17 Myr old, close-in ($P_{orb} = 6.96$ d), Jupiter-sized ($R = 10,R_{oplus}$) transiting planet orbiting a Sun like star in the Sco-Cen OB association. We present our measurement of the systems projected orbital obliquity via two spe
AU Mic is a young planetary system with a resolved debris disc showing signs of planet formation and two transiting warm Neptunes near mean-motion resonances. Here we analyse three transits of AU Mic b observed with the CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satel
DS Tuc Ab is a Neptune-sized planet that orbits around a member of the 45 Myr old Tucana-Horologium moving group. Here, we report the measurement of the sky-projected angle between the stellar spin axis and the planets orbital axis, based on the obse
