The Ingot WFS belongs to a class of pupil-plane WFSs designed to address the challenges posed by Sodium Laser Guide Stars, and consists of a combination of refractive and reflectiv…
The PLATO Mission
Heike Rauer, Conny Aerts, Juan Cabrera +842
PLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) is ESA's M3 mission designed to detect and characterise extrasolar planets and perform asteroseismic monitoring of a large numb…
HIP 41378 observed by CHEOPS: Where is planet d?
S. Sulis, L. Borsato, S. Grouffal +84
HIP 41378 d is a long-period planet that has only been observed to transit twice, three years apart, with K2. According to stability considerations and a partial detection of the R…
An Ingot-like class of WaveFront Sensors for Laser Guide Stars
Roberto Ragazzoni, Elisa Portaluri, Davide Greggio +15
Full sky coverage Adaptive Optics on Extremely Large Telescopes requires the adoption of several Laser Guide Stars as references.With such large apertures, the apparent elongation…
Characterising TOI-732 b and c: New insights into the M-dwarf radius and density valley
A. Bonfanti, M. Brady, T. G. Wilson +88
TOI-732 is an M dwarf hosting two transiting planets that are located on the two opposite sides of the radius valley. By doubling the number of available space-based observations a…
CHEOPS observations of KELT-20 b/MASCARA-2 b: An aligned orbit and signs of variability from a reflective dayside
V. Singh, G. Scandariato, A. M. S. Smith +87
Occultations are windows of opportunity to indirectly peek into the dayside atmosphere of exoplanets. High-precision transit events provide information on the spin-orbit alignment…
MORFEO enters final design phase
