GJ 367b: A dense ultra-short period sub-Earth planet transiting a nearby red dwarf star

Kristine W. F. Lam, Szilárd Csizmadia, Nicola Astudillo-Defru +75

Ultra-short-period (USP) exoplanets have orbital periods shorter than one day. Precise masses and radii of USPs could provide constraints on their unknown formation and evolution p…

Signs of late infall and possible planet formation around DR Tau using VLT/SPHERE and LBTI/LMIRCam

D. Mesa, C. Ginski, R. Gratton +31

Context. Protoplanetary disks around young stars often contain substructures like rings, gaps, and spirals that could be caused by interactions between the disk and forming planets…

Observed tidal evolution of Kleopatra's outer satellite

M. Brož, J. Ďurech, B. Carry +8

The orbit of the outer satellite Alexhelios of (216) Kleopatra is already constrained by adaptive-optics astrometry, obtained with the VLT/SPHERE instrument. However, there is also…

On the Relation of the Lunar Recession and the Length-of-the-Day

Andre Maeder, Vesselin G. Gueorguiev

We review the problem of the consistency between the observed values of the lunar recession from Lunar Laser Ranging (LLR) and of the increase of the length-of-the-day (LOD). From…

Coma morphology and dust emission pattern of comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE)

F. Manzini, V. Oldani, P. Ochner +4

The recent close approach of comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) allowed us to study the morphology of its inner coma. From the measurement of the dust ejection velocityon spiral structures…

Properties of slowly rotating asteroids from the Convex Inversion Thermophysical Model

A. Marciniak, J. Ďurech, V. Alí-Lagoa +73

Results from the TESS mission showed that previous studies strngly underestimated the number of slow rotators, revealing the importance of studying those asteroids. For most slowly…

Evidence for differentiation of the most primitive small bodies

B. Carry, P. Vernazza, F. Vachier +40

Dynamical models of Solar System evolution have suggested that P-/D-type volatile-rich asteroids formed in the outer Solar System and may be genetically related to the Jupiter Troj…

The SPHERE infrared survey for exoplanets (SHINE)- I Sample definition and target characterization

S. Desidera, G. Chauvin, M. Bonavita +105

Large surveys with new-generation high-contrast imaging instruments are needed to derive the frequency and properties of exoplanet populations with separations from 5 to 300…

The SPHERE infrared survey for exoplanets (SHINE) -- II. Observations, Data reduction and analysis Detection performances and early-results

M. Langlois, R. Gratton, A. -M. Lagrange +118

Over the past decades, direct imaging has confirmed the existence of substellar companions (exoplanets or brown dwarfs) on wide orbits (>10 au) from their host stars. To understand…

A transiting warm giant planet around the young active star TOI-201

Melissa J. Hobson, Rafael Brahm, Andres Jordán +44

We present the confirmation of the eccentric warm giant planet TOI-201 b, first identified as a candidate in \textit{TESS} photometry (Sectors 1-8, 10-13, and 27-28) and confirmed…

TESS Delivers Five New Hot Giant Planets Orbiting Bright Stars from the Full Frame Images

Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn, George Zhou +115

We present the discovery and characterization of five hot and warm Jupiters -- TOI-628 b (TIC 281408474; HD 288842), TOI-640 b (TIC 147977348), TOI-1333 b (TIC 395171208, BD+47 352…

Mass and density of the transiting hot and rocky super-Earth LHS 1478 b (TOI-1640 b)

M. G. Soto, G. Anglada-Escudé, S. Dreizler +52

One of the main objectives of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite ({TESS}) mission is the discovery of small rocky planets around relatively bright nearby stars. Here, we rep…
