The PFS View of TOI-677 b: A Spin–Orbit Aligned Warm Jupiter in a Dynamically Hot System

TOI-677 b is part of an emerging class of “tidally detached” gas giants ( a / R _⋆ ≳ 11) that exhibit large orbital eccentricities and yet low stellar obliquities. Such sources pose a challenge for models of giant planet formation, which must account for the excitation of high eccentricities without...
