A large topographic feature on the surface of the trans-Neptunian object (307261) 2002 MS measured from stellar occultations

F. L. Rommel, F. Braga-Ribas, J. L. Ortiz +201

This work aims at constraining the size, shape, and geometric albedo of the dwarf planet candidate 2002 MS4 through the analysis of nine stellar occultation events. Using multichor…

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…

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…
