Performance of AutoRegressive Planet Search methodology on simulated PLATO lightcurves

Eric D. Feigelson, Marco Montalto, Geert Jan Talens +4

AIM. This study examines the PLATO mission sensitivity to small transiting planets (radii between 0.5 and 2.0 R) using Autoregressive Planet Search (ARPS) methodology base…

Characterization of exoplanetary atmospheres with SLOPpy

Daniela Sicilia, Luca Malavolta, Lorenzo Pino +4

Transmission spectroscopy is among the most fruitful techniques to infer the main opacity sources present in the upper atmosphere of a transiting planet and to constrain the compos…

The GAPS Programme at TNG XXVII. Reassessment of a young planetary system with HARPS-N: is the hot Jupiter V830 Tau b really there?

M. Damasso, A. F. Lanza, S. Benatti +41

Detecting and characterising exoworlds around very young stars (age10 Myr) are key aspects of exoplanet demographic studies, especially for understanding the mechanisms and time…

The GAPS Programme at TNG -- XXIV. An eccentric Neptune-mass planet near the inner edge of the BD-11 4672 habitable zone

D. Barbato, M. Pinamonti, A. Sozzetti +34

With the growth of comparative exoplanetology, it is increasingly clear that investigating the relationships between inner and outer planets plays a key role in discriminating betw…

The GAPS Programme with HARPS-N@TNG XII: Characterization of the planetary system around HD108874

S. Benatti, S. Desidera, M. Damasso +36

In order to understand the observed physical and orbital diversity of extrasolar planetary systems, a full investigation of these objects and of their host stars is necessary. With…

A PSF-based approach to Kepler/K2 data - III. Search for exoplanets and variable stars within the open cluster M 67 (NGC 2682)

D. Nardiello, M. Libralato, L. R. Bedin +5

In the third paper of this series we continue the exploitation of Kepler/K2 data in dense stellar fields using our PSF-based method. This work is focused on a ~720-arcmin^2 region…

Atmospheric Parameters and Metallicities for 2191 stars in the Globular Cluster M4

Luca Malavolta, Christopher Sneden, Giampaolo Piotto +3

We report new metallicities for stars of Galactic globular cluster M4 using the largest number of stars ever observed at high spectral resolution in any cluster. We analyzed 7250 s…

The PLATO 2.0 Mission

H. Rauer, C. Catala, C. Aerts +159

PLATO 2.0 has recently been selected for ESA's M3 launch opportunity (2022/24). Providing accurate key planet parameters (radius, mass, density and age) in statistical numbers, it…

The GAPS Programme with HARPS-N@TNG II: No giant planets around the metal-poor star HIP 11952

S. Desidera, A. Sozzetti, A. S. Bonomo +37

In the context of the program Global Architecture of Planetary Systems (GAPS), we have performed radial velocity monitoring of the metal-poor star HIP 11952 on 35 nights over about…
