We collected more than 300 high-resolution spectra of the 300 Myr old star BD+40 2790 (TOI-2076) over ~3 years. This star hosts three transiting planets discovered by TESS, with or…
TOI-837 b: characterisation, formation and evolutionary history of an infant warm Saturn-mass planet
M. Damasso, D. Polychroni, D. Locci +15
We aim to determine the fundamental properties of the 35 Myr old star TOI-837 and its close-in Saturn-sized planet, and to investigate the system's formation and evolutionary…
Orbital obliquity of the young planet TOI-5398 b and the evolutionary history of the system
G. Mantovan, L. Malavolta, D. Locci +19
Multi-planet systems exhibit remarkable architectural diversity. However, short-period giant planets are typically isolated. Compact systems like TOI-5398, with an outer close-orbi…
