Precise projected obliquity measurements. Here we highlight the most precise (σλ < 2°) measurements of λ for systems with cool stellar hosts (Teff < 6100 K). WASP-50 is highlighted with a black center. The color-coding is done according to Teff and the marker sizes scale with the tidal alignment timescale (as given by Zahn 1977). The gray shaded area shows the Gaussian distribution inferred from cool hosts (Teff < 6100 K) with close-in (a/R★ < 10), massive (Mp < 0.3 MJ) planets. The horizontal lines demarcate the Solar System obliquity of 7.155° (Beck & Giles 2005). The light gray error bars show the less precise measurements. Adapted from Albrecht et al. (2022, Figure 10).
