Barnard's star is a primary target within the ESPRESSO guaranteed time observations (GTO) as it is the second closest neighbour to our Sun after the Centauri stellar system. We…
MINCE II. Neutron capture elements
P. François, G. Cescutti, P. Bonifacio +24
The MINCE (Measuring at Intermediate metallicity Neutron-Capture Elements) project aims to gather the abundances of neutron-capture elements but also of light elements and iron pea…
TESS and ESPRESSO discover a super-Earth and a mini-Neptune orbiting the K-dwarf TOI-238
A. Suárez Mascareño, V. M. Passegger, J. I. González Hernández +53
The number of super-Earth and mini-Neptune planet discoveries has increased significantly in the last two decades thanks to transit and radial velocity surveys. When it is possible…
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…
Detection of barium in the atmospheres of the ultra-hot gas giants WASP-76b and WASP-121b
T. Azevedo Silva, O. D. S. Demangeon, N. C. Santos +33
High-resolution spectroscopy studies of ultra-hot Jupiters have been key in our understanding of exoplanet atmospheres. Observing into the atmospheres of these giant planets allows…
The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey: Motivation, implementation, GIRAFFE data processing, analysis, and final data products
G. Gilmore, S. Randich, C. C. Worley +165
The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey is an ambitious project designed to obtain astrophysical parameters and elemental abundances for 100,000 stars, including large representat…
The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey: Implementation, data products, open cluster survey, science, and legacy
S. Randich, G. Gilmore, L. Magrini +161
In the last 15 years different ground-based spectroscopic surveys have been started (and completed) with the general aim of delivering stellar parameters and elemental abundances f…
A candidate short-period sub-Earth orbiting Proxima Centauri
J. P. Faria, A. Suárez Mascareño, P. Figueira +34
Proxima Centauri is the closest star to the Sun. This small, low-mass, mid M dwarf is known to host an Earth-mass exoplanet with an orbital period of 11.2 days within the habitable…
The Rossiter-McLaughlin effect Revolutions: An ultra-short period planet and a warm mini-Neptune on perpendicular orbits
V. Bourrier, C. Lovis, M. Cretignier +34
Comparisons of the alignment of exoplanets with a common host star can be used to distinguish among concurrent evolution scenarios. However, multi-planet systems usually host mini-…
HD22496b: the first ESPRESSO standalone planet discovery
