POSEIDON III: The Aligned Orbit of the Hot Neptune Around the Hot Star WASP-195

The episode discusses the paper "POSEIDON III: The Aligned Orbit of the Hot Neptune Around the Hot Star WASP-195." Hosts discuss how this finding provides evidence of a specific, aligned orbit for a hot Neptune around WASP-195. The study uses combined photometric and spectroscopic data to constrain the star's properties and suggests that this stable architecture implies gentle physical forces are at play in these systems.
