Joint posterior constraints of eω from our photoeccentric-effect analysis. Each mini-corner panel shows the marginalized posteriors of ω (top) and e (right), along with their joint distribution (lower left). The top row displays previously known high-eccentricity systems, while the bottom row shows newly identified candidate high-e planets with Rp ≲ 4, R. For the known systems, the published radial-velocity solutions (J. Dong et al. 2021b; J. I. Espinoza-Retamal et al. 2023; A. F. Gupta et al. 2023; A. Bieryla et al. 2025; N. Heidari et al. 2025) are overlaid as orange Gaussian approximations in e and ω for visual comparison.
