A 43 day transiting Neptune and two 25 day Saturns from TESS, NGTS and ASTEP

Alicia Kendall, Solène Ulmer-Moll, Samuel Gill +53

Beyond orbital periods of 10 days, there is a dearth of known transiting gas giants. On longer orbits, planets are less affected by their host star, and become ideal probes of plan…

Stringent Upper Bounds on Atmospheric Mass Loss from Three Neptune-Sized Planets in the TOI-4010 System

Morgan Saidel, Shreyas Vissapragada, Michael Zhang +6

Photoevaporative models predict that the lower edge of the Neptune desert is sculpted by atmospheric mass loss. However, the stellar high energy fluxes that power hydrodynamic esca…
