Faith Hawthorn, Daniel Bayliss, Thomas G. Wilson +137
We present the discovery of two exoplanets transiting TOI-836 (TIC 440887364) using data from TESS Sector 11 and Sector 38. TOI-836 is a bright ( mag), high proper motion…
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…

Thomas G. Wilson, Elisa Goffo, Yann Alibert +132
We report the discovery and characterisation of a pair of sub-Neptunes transiting the bright K-dwarf TOI-1064 (TIC 79748331), initially detected in TESS photometry. To characterise…
Analysis of Early Science observations with the CHaracterising ExOPlanets Satellite (CHEOPS) using pycheops
P. F. L. Maxted, D. Ehrenreich, T. G. Wilson +77
CHEOPS(CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite) is an ESA S-class mission that observes bright stars at high cadence from low-Earth orbit. The main aim of the mission is to characterize…
Constraining stellar rotation and planetary atmospheric evolution of a dozen systems hosting sub-Neptunes and super-Earths
A. Bonfanti, L. Fossati, D. Kubyshkina +1
We constrain the planetary atmospheric mass fraction at the time of the dispersal of the protoplanetary disk and the evolution of the stellar rotation rate for a dozen multi-planet…
Spi-OPS: Spitzer and CHEOPS confirm the near-polar orbit of MASCARA-1 b and reveal a hint of dayside reflection
M. J. Hooton, S. Hoyer, D. Kitzmann +82
The light curves of tidally locked hot Jupiters transiting fast-rotating, early-type stars are a rich source of information about both the planet and star, with full-phase coverage…
Transit detection of the long-period volatile-rich super-Earth Lupi d with
Laetitia Delrez, David Ehrenreich, Yann Alibert +75
Exoplanets transiting bright nearby stars are key objects for advancing our knowledge of planetary formation and evolution. The wealth of photons from the host star gives detailed…
Exploiting timing capabilities of the CHEOPS mission with warm-Jupiter planets
Borsato L, Piotto G, Gandolfi D +75
We present 17 transit light curves of seven known warm-Jupiters observed with the CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite (CHEOPS). The light curves have been collected as part of the C…
The EBLM project -- VIII. First results for M-dwarf mass, radius and effective temperature measurements using CHEOPS light curves
M. I. Swayne, P. F. L. Maxted, A. H. M. J. Triaud +93
The accuracy of theoretical mass, radius and effective temperature values for M-dwarf stars is an active topic of debate. Differences between observed and theoretical values have r…
Detection of Ongoing Mass Loss from HD 63433c, a Young Mini Neptune
Michael Zhang, Heather A. Knutson, Lile Wang +9
We detect Lyman absorption from the escaping atmosphere of HD 63433c, a , d mini Neptune orbiting a young (440 Myr) solar analogue in the Ursa Major M…
CHEOPS observations of the HD 108236 planetary system: A fifth planet, improved ephemerides, and planetary radii
A. Bonfanti, L. Delrez, M. J. Hooton +106
The detection of a super-Earth and three mini-Neptunes transiting the bright ( = 9.2 mag) star HD 108236 (also known as TOI-1233) was recently reported on the basis of TESS and…
Six transiting planets and a chain of Laplace resonances in TOI-178
A. Leleu, Y. Alibert, N. C. Hara +152
Determining the architecture of multi-planetary systems is one of the cornerstones of understanding planet formation and evolution. Resonant systems are especially important as the…
The hot dayside and asymmetric transit of WASP-189b seen by CHEOPS
