I Can Do It With A Broken Planetesimal: Characterising the planetary debris in heavily polluted cool white dwarfs
Anna-Maria Cutolo, Boris T. Gänsicke, Boris T. Gänsicke +8
The paper analyzes four cool, metal‑polluted hydrogen‑atmosphere white dwarfs using X‑shooter spectra to determine their atmospheric parameters and the composition of accreted plan…
NGTS-39 b: A 58 d transiting warm Jupiter in an eccentric orbit
Ioannis Apergis, Daniel Bayliss, Solène Ulmer-Moll +53
We report the discovery and characterisation of NGTS-39 b (TIC 453147896 b), a warm Jupiter transiting a Sun-like star on a 58.2 day, eccentric (e = 0.386 +/- 0.019) orbit. NGTS-39…
Following up the Kepler field with PLATO: Transit Timing Performance
Morgan A. Mitchell, James McCormac, Don Pollacco +11
The European Space Agency is set to launch PLATO, the third medium-class mission of its Cosmic Vision programme, in early 2027. Using the transit method, PLATO is expected to detec…
DebrisWatch II: Digging deeper for geosynchronous debris
James A. Blake, Benjamin F. Cooke, Cristina Paragini +27
The geosynchronous (GSO) debris environment is continually evolving. Regular monitoring of the region is consequently of great importance, though the trade-off between coverage and…
Brightness, Colour, Polarisation: A Multi-Instrument Observation Campaign of the Gorizont-6 Satellite
Robert J. S Airey, Paul Chote, Klaas Wiersema +15
We present a coordinated multi-instrument photometric and polarimetric study of the defunct geosynchronous satellite, Gorizont-6. This observation campaign combined wide-field mult…
High-Precision Photometry with a scientific CMOS Camera: II On-Sky Testing of the Marana camera at the NGTS facility
Ioannis Apergis, Daniel Bayliss, Paul Chote +24
Modern scientific CMOS cameras offer very fast readout speeds and low read noise. In this study, we evaluate the performance of the Andor Marana CMOS camera through on-sky testing…
