Astra: an open-source fully autonomous robotic observatory control software
Peter P. Pedersen, David Degen, Lionel Garcia +12
Robotic and autonomous observatories are critical for modern time-domain and high-cadence astronomical surveys. The operation of these facilities requires complex software coordina…
A gem system with a lava world and a habitable zone sub-Neptune orbiting TOI-1752
A. Peláez-Torres, F. J. Pozuelos, G. Morello +47
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has delivered a large number of transiting planet candidates around nearby stars by identifying periodic decreases in stellar brigh…
TOI-4616 b: a benchmark Earth-sized planet transiting a nearby M4 dwarf
F. Zong Lang, B. O. Demory, Y. Gomez Maqueo Chew +44
Rocky exoplanets are particularly abundant around M-type stars. Their small radii and low luminosities provide favourable conditions for detecting transiting terrestrial planets an…
TOI-1080 b: a temperate, rocky planet orbiting a quiet M4V host
Y. Gómez Maqueo Chew, G. Dransfield, K. Barkaoui +41
We present the detection and validation of a small, temperate transiting exoplanet orbiting TOI-1080 every 3.9652482 days. The host is a quiet M4V star…
Gas-depleted planet formation occurred in the four-planet system around the red dwarf LHS 1903
Thomas G. Wilson, Anna M. Simpson, Andrew Collier Cameron +173
Small exoplanet radii show two populations, referred to as super-Earths and sub-Neptunes, separated by a gap known as the radius valley. This may be produced by the removal of atmo…
From Earths to Super-Earths: Five New Small Planets Transiting M Dwarf Stars
Jonathan Gomez Barrientos, Heather A. Knutson, Morgan Saidel +39
Earth-sized planets transiting M dwarf stars present one of the best opportunities with current facilities for studying the atmospheric and bulk compositions of terrestrial worlds.…
Two warm Earth-sized exoplanets and an Earth-sized candidate in the M5V-M6V binary system TOI-2267
S. Zúñiga-Fernández, F. J. Pozuelos, M. Dévora-Pajares +63
We report two warm Earth-sized exoplanets orbiting the close binary TOI-2267 (M5+M6, separation ~8 au). Data from TESS and ground-based facilities confirm the planets, but we canno…
CHEOPS in-flight performance: A comprehensive look at the first 3.5 years of operations
A. Fortier, A. E. Simon, C. Broeg +128
CHEOPS is a space telescope specifically designed to monitor transiting exoplanets orbiting bright stars. In September 2023, CHEOPS completed its nominal mission and remains in exc…
Detection of an Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting the nearby ultracool dwarf star SPECULOOS-3
Michaël Gillon, Peter P. Pedersen, Benjamin V. Rackham +81
Located at the bottom of the main sequence, ultracool dwarf stars are widespread in the solar neighbourhood. Nevertheless, their extremely low luminosity has left their planetary p…
A super-Earth and a mini-Neptune near the 2:1 MMR straddling the radius valley around the nearby mid-M dwarf TOI-2096
F. J. Pozuelos, M. Timmermans, B. V. Rackham +72
Several planetary formation models have been proposed to explain the observed abundance and variety of compositions of super-Earths and mini-Neptunes. In this context, multitransit…
Two temperate super-Earths transiting a nearby late-type M dwarf
L. Delrez, C. A. Murray, F. J. Pozuelos +82
In the age of JWST, temperate terrestrial exoplanets transiting nearby late-type M dwarfs provide unique opportunities for characterising their atmospheres, as well as searching fo…
Uncovering the true periods of the young sub-Neptunes orbiting TOI-2076
Hugh P. Osborn, Andrea Bonfanti, Davide Gandolfi +93
Context: TOI-2076 is a transiting three-planet system of sub-Neptunes orbiting a bright (G = 8.9 mag), young ( Myr) K-type star. Although a validated planetary system, th…
The THOR+HELIOS general circulation model: multi-wavelength radiative transfer with accurate scattering by clouds/hazes
Russell Deitrick, Kevin Heng, Urs Schroffenegger +5
General circulation models (GCMs) provide context for interpreting multi-wavelength, multi-phase data of the atmospheres of tidally locked exoplanets. In the current study, the non…
TOI-2257 b: A highly eccentric long-period sub-Neptune transiting a nearby M dwarf
N. Schanche, F. J. Pozuelos, M. N. Günther +61
Thanks to the relative ease of finding and characterizing small planets around M dwarf stars, these objects have become cornerstones in the field of exoplanet studies. The current…
A large sub-Neptune transiting the thick-disk M4V TOI-2406
R. D. Wells, B. V. Rackham, N. Schanche +71
Large sub-Neptunes are uncommon around the coolest stars in the Galaxy and are rarer still around those that are metal-poor. However, owing to the large planet-to-star radius ratio…
A super-Earth and a sub-Neptune orbiting the bright, quiet M3 dwarf TOI-1266
B. -O. Demory, F. J. Pozuelos, Y. Gomez Maqueo Chew +70
We report the discovery and characterisation of a super-Earth and a sub-Neptune transiting the bright (), quiet, and nearby (37 pc) M3V dwarf TOI-1266. We validate the plane…
THOR 2.0: Major Improvements to the Open-Source General Circulation Model
Russell Deitrick, João M. Mendonça, Urs Schroffenegger +3
THOR is the first open-source general circulation model (GCM) developed from scratch to study the atmospheres and climates of exoplanets, free from Earth- or Solar System-centric t…
