TOI-969: a late-K dwarf with a hot mini-Neptune in the desert and an eccentric cold Jupiter
J. Lillo-Box, D. Gandolfi, D. J. Armstrong +60
The current architecture of a given multi-planetary system is a key fingerprint of its past formation and dynamical evolution history. Long-term follow-up observations are key to c…
