Will have a thread soon about our new paper. I never thought I would do a HZ paper but it turns out the literature had missed some key points of the problem. LPL grad student Kayla Smith led our effort (and her first brown dwarf paper).
I'm super excited to share a HUGE paper out from Young Worlds Lab team member Andy Boyle.
I present for you, ~900,000 rotation periods from TESS!
