Characterization of the K2-38 planetary system. Unraveling one of the densest planets known to date

B. Toledo-Padrón, C. Lovis, A. Suárez Mascareño +90

We characterized the transiting planetary system orbiting the G2V star K2-38 using the new-generation echelle spectrograph ESPRESSO. We carried out a photometric analysis of the av…

A precise architecture characterization of the Men planetary system

M. Damasso, A. Sozzetti, C. Lovis +97

The bright star Men was chosen as the first target for a radial velocity follow-up to test the performance of ESPRESSO, the new high-resolution spectrograph at the ESO's Very-…

Revisiting Proxima with ESPRESSO

A. Suárez Mascareño, J. P. Faria, P. Figueira +88

We aim to confirm the presence of Proxima b using independent measurements obtained with the new ESPRESSO spectrograph, and refine the planetary parameters taking advantage of its…

ESPRESSO high resolution transmission spectroscopy of WASP-76b

H. M. Tabernero, M. R. Zapatero Osorio, R. Allart +87

Aims. We report on ESPRESSO high-resolution transmission spectroscopic observations of two primary transits of the highly-irradiated, ultra-hot Jupiter-size planet WASP-76b. We inv…
