A comprehensive Rossiter-Mclaughlin Modelling Framework in TLCM: Application to HD 2685 TOI-135 system

Szilárd Csizmadia, Alexis M. S. Smith, J. V. Harre +1

We present an updated Rossiter-McLaughlin modelling framework in the exoplanet analysis code \textsc{TLCM}. We describe our model in detail. The model and the code were validated b…

TOI-2147 b and TOI-6019 b: Two eccentric warm Jupiters detected and characterized with TESS and MaHPS

Luis Thomas, Louise D. Nielsen, Hanna Kellermann +36

The population of Jupiter-sized exoplanets with orbital periods between 10 and 200 days (WJs) exhibits a broad range of orbital eccentricities and system architectures, suggesting…

CHEOPS observations confirm nodal precession in the WASP-33 system

A. M. S. Smith, Sz. Csizmadia, V. Van Grootel +86

Aims: We aim to observe the transits and occultations of WASP-33b, which orbits a rapidly-rotating Scuti pulsator, with the goal of measuring the orbital obliquity via the grav…

A close outer companion to the ultra-hot Jupiter TOI-2109 b?

J. -V. Harre, A. M. S. Smith, S. C. C. Barros +86

Hot Jupiters with close-by planetary companions are rare, with only a handful of them having been discovered so far. This could be due to their suggested dynamical histories, leadi…

A false positive transit candidate for EPIC 211101996 from K2 and TESS data identified as background eclipsing binary Gaia DR3 66767847894609792

René Heller, Milena Hüschen, Jan-Vincent Harre +1

Transiting planets around young stars are hard to find due to the enhanced stellar activity. Only a few transiting planets have been detected around stars younger than 100 Myr. We…

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…

The apparent tidal decay of WASP-4 b can be explained by the Rømer effect

Jan-Vincent Harre, Alexis M. S. Smith

Tidal orbital decay plays a vital role in the evolution of hot Jupiter systems. As of now, this was only observationally confirmed for the WASP-12 system. There are a few other can…

Impact of Cosmic Rays on Atmospheric Ion Chemistry and Spectral Transmission Features of TRAPPIST-1e

Konstantin Herbst, Andreas Bartenschlager, John Lee Grenfell +10

Ongoing observing projects like the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and future missions offer the chance to characterize Earth-like exoplanetary atmospheres. Thereby, M-dwarfs ar…

The Orbit of Warm Jupiter WASP-106 b is aligned with its Star

Jan-Vincent Harre, Alexis M. S. Smith, Teruyuki Hirano +3

Understanding orbital obliquities, or the misalignment angles between a star's rotation axis and the orbital axis of its planets, is crucial for unraveling the mechanisms of planet…

Spinning up a Daze: TESS Uncovers a Hot Jupiter orbiting the Rapid-Rotator TOI-778

Jake Clark, Brett Addison, Jack Okumura +68

NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission, has been uncovering a growing number of exoplanets orbiting nearby, bright stars. Most exoplanets that have been discov…

Examining the orbital decay targets KELT-9 b, KELT-16 b and WASP-4 b, and the transit-timing variations of HD 97658 b

J. -V. Harre, A. M. S. Smith, S. C. C. Barros +87

Tidal orbital decay is suspected to occur especially for hot Jupiters, with the only observationally confirmed case of this being WASP-12 b. By examining this effect, information o…

Transit least-squares survey IV. Earth-like transiting planets expected from the PLATO mission

René Heller, Jan-Vincent Harre, Réza Samadi

In its long-duration observation phase, the PLATO satellite will observe two non-overlapping fields for a total of 4 yr. The exact duration of each pointing will be determined 2 yr…

Digital color codes of stars

Jan-Vincent Harre, René Heller

Publications in astrophysics are nowadays mainly published and read in digitized formats. Astrophysical publications in both research and in popular outreach often use colorful rep…
