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…
Hot Exoplanet Atmospheres Resolved with Transit Spectroscopy (HEARTS) VI. Non-detection of sodium with HARPS on the bloated super-Neptune WASP-127b
J. V. Seidel, M. Lendl, V. Bourrier +17
WASP-127b is one of the puffiest exoplanets found to date, with a mass only Neptune masses, but a radius larger than Jupiter. It is also located at the border of the Neptune…
TOI-824 b: A New Planet on the Lower Edge of the Hot Neptune Desert
Jennifer A. Burt, Louise D. Nielsen, Samuel N. Quinn +54
We report the detection of a transiting hot Neptune exoplanet orbiting TOI-824 (SCR J1448-5735), a nearby (d = 64 pc) K4V star, using data from the \textit{Transiting Exoplanet Sur…
Probing the atmosphere of HD189733b with the Na I and K I lines
E. Keles, D. Kitzmann, M. Mallonn +12
High spectral resolution transmission spectroscopy is a powerful tool to characterize exoplanet atmospheres. Especially for hot Jupiters, this technique is highly relevant, due to…
TESS Reveals a Short-period Sub-Neptune Sibling (HD 86226c) to a Known Long-period Giant Planet
Johanna Teske, Matías R. Díaz, Rafael Luque +44
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite mission was designed to find transiting planets around bright, nearby stars. Here we present the detection and mass measurement of a small…
Search for helium in the upper atmosphere of the hot Jupiter WASP-127 b using Gemini/Phoenix
Leonardo A. dos Santos, David Ehrenreich, Vincent Bourrier +8
Large-scale exoplanet search surveys have shown evidence that atmospheric escape is a ubiquitous process that shapes the evolution and demographics of planets. However, we lack a d…
Hot Exoplanet Atmospheres Resolved with Transit Spectroscopy (HEARTS) V. Detection of sodium on the bloated super-Neptune WASP-166b
J. V. Seidel, D. Ehrenreich, V. Bourrier +17
Planet formation processes or evolution mechanisms are surmised to be at the origin of the hot Neptune desert. Studying exoplanets currently living within or at the edge of this de…
Hot Exoplanet Atmospheres Resolved with Transit Spectroscopy (HEARTS) IV. A spectral inventory of atoms and molecules in the high-resolution transmission spectrum of WASP-121 b
H. J. Hoeijmakers, J. V. Seidel, L. Pino +22
Aims: We survey the transmission spectrum of WASP-121 b for line-absorption by metals and molecules at high spectral resolution, and elaborate on existing interpretations of the op…
Mass loss rate and local thermodynamic state of KELT-9 b thermosphere from the hydrogen Balmer series
A. Wyttenbach, P. Mollière, D. Ehrenreich +12
KELT-9 b, the hottest known exoplanet with K, is the archetype of a new planet class known as ultra-hot Jupiters. These exoplanets are presumed to have an atmosphere do…
Nightside condensation of iron in an ultra-hot giant exoplanet
David Ehrenreich, Christophe Lovis, Romain Allart +94
Ultra-hot giant exoplanets receive thousands of times Earth's insolation. Their high-temperature atmospheres (>2,000 K) are ideal laboratories for studying extreme planetary climat…
Three Short Period Jupiters from TESS
L. D. Nielsen, R. Brahm, F. Bouchy +74
We report the confirmation and mass determination of three hot Jupiters discovered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission: HIP 65Ab (TOI-129, TIC-201248411) is…
Two intermediate-mass transiting brown dwarfs from the TESS mission
Theron W. Carmichael, Samuel N. Quinn, Alexander J. Mustill +28
We report the discovery of two intermediate-mass brown dwarfs (BDs), TOI-569b and TOI-1406b, from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite mission. TOI-569b has an orbital peri…
Mass determinations of the three mini-Neptunes transiting TOI-125
L. D. Nielsen, D. Gandolfi, D. J. Armstrong +77
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, TESS, is currently carrying out an all-sky search for small planets transiting bright stars. In the first year of the TESS survey, steady…
