About
P. Sarkis is an astronomer whose research focuses on the detection and characterization of exoplanets, particularly around K-dwarf stars. Their major contributions include the discovery of TOI-2202 b, a warm Jovian-mass planet identified through TESS mission data and follow-up observations. This work, published in 2021, has garnered 31 citations and demonstrates Sarkis’s skill in combining space-based transit data with ground-based follow-up from the CHAT robotic telescope. The paper’s key finding—that TOI-2202 b and a companion planet reside near a 2:1 mean motion resonance—provides critical insights into planetary system architecture and orbital dynamics. Sarkis’s research advances our understanding of giant planet formation and migration, particularly in systems with K-dwarf hosts, which are prime targets for future atmospheric characterization. Their work exemplifies the power of multi-instrument, multi-epoch observations in exoplanet science, and their findings contribute to the broader effort to map the diversity of planetary systems in the galaxy.
