WALTzER: Wide-band Atmospheric Laboratory for Transiting Exoplanet Research

A. G. Sreejith, L. Fossati, M. Lendl +81

Understanding the origin and evolution of planetary atmospheres, and the connection between their lower and upper atmospheric layers, remains a fundamental challenge in exoplanet s…

Night-sky emission correction techniques for high-resolution spectroscopy: Demonstration with NIRPS

Avidaan Srivastava, François Bouchy, Xavier Dumusque +54

Ground-based spectrographs operating in the near-infrared (NIR) regime are hampered by various absorption and emission features of Earth's atmosphere. While considerable attention…

RISTRETTO: Assembly and Testing of the Seven-spaxel, High-resolution, Diffraction-limited Spectrograph

Leonie Hoerner, Bruno Chazelas, Nathanaël Restori +24

The RISTRETTO project aims at the direct detection of the reflected light of extra-solar planets to measure albedos and detect possible biosignatures, using the high-contrast / hig…

DD4AO control law for RISTRETTO: robustness, real-time performance, and on-sky validation with PAPYRUS

Isaac Dinis, Muskan Schinde, Nicolas Blind +11

This study presents DD4AO progress towards its implementation in the RISTRETTO instrument. DD4AO is a novel frequency-domain, data-driven controller for adaptive optics that levera…

The breaking of cold traps and onset of titanium in ultra-hot Jupiter atmospheres: WASP-189b in context

Stefan Pelletier, Romain Allart, Valentina Vaulato +56

Condensates are ubiquitous to all Solar System planets with significant (10mbar) atmospheres. The same is true for most exoplanets with characterised atmospheres, with even ultr…

Resolving protoplanetary H-alpha emission with the high-resolution spectrograph RISTRETTO

J. W. Blackman, C. Mordasini, G. -D. Marleau +4

Thousands of exoplanets have been discovered to date, but only a handful of them are young planets in the latter stages of their formation. H-alpha emission is a strong tracer of t…

Super-Earth masses and stellar abundances from NIRPS reveal tentative evidence for water-rich formation around M dwarfs

Drew Weisserman, Nicole Gromek, Ryan Cloutier +98

Tracing the compositional link between terrestrial super-Earths and their host stars provides clues to their dominant formation pathway. By constraining the stellar abundances of r…

NIRPS tightens the mass estimate of GJ 3090 b and detects a planet near the stellar rotation period

Pierrot Lamontagne, Drew Weisserman, Charles Cadieux +148

We present an updated characterization of the planetary system orbiting the nearby M2 dwarf GJ 3090 (TOI-177; pc), based on new high-precision radial velocity (RV) observa…

Towards a global model for planet formation in layered MHD wind-driven discs: A population synthesis approach to investigate the impact of low viscosity and accretion layer thickness

Jesse Weder, Christoph Mordasini

Planet formation is inherently linked to protoplanetary disc evolution, which recent developments suggest is driven by magnetised winds rather than turbulent viscosity. We study pl…
