K2-99 revisited: a non-inflated warm Jupiter, and a temperate giant planet on a 522-d orbit around a subgiant

A. M. S. Smith, S. N. Breton, Sz. Csizmadia +29

We report new photometric and spectroscopic observations of the K2-99 planetary system. Asteroseismic analysis of the short-cadence light curve from K2's Campaign 17 allows us to r…

The young HD 73583 (TOI-560) planetary system: Two 10-M mini-Neptunes transiting a 500-Myr-old, bright, and active K dwarf

O. Barragán, D. J. Armstrong, D. Gandolfi +103

We present the discovery and characterisation of two transiting planets observed by \textit{TESS} in the light curves of the young and bright (V=9.67) star HD73583 (TOI-560). We pe…

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…
