Gas-depleted planet formation occurred in the four-planet system around the red dwarf LHS 1903
Thomas G. Wilson, Anna M. Simpson, Andrew Collier Cameron +173
Small exoplanet radii show two populations, referred to as super-Earths and sub-Neptunes, separated by a gap known as the radius valley. This may be produced by the removal of atmo…
Transit-timing variations in the AU Mic system observed with CHEOPS
Á. Boldog, Gy. M. Szabó, L. Kriskovics +86
AU Mic is a very active M dwarf with an edge-on debris disk and two transiting sub-Neptunes with a possible third planetary companion. The two transiting planets exhibit significan…
A joint effort to discover and characterize two resonant mini Neptunes around TOI-1803 with TESS, HARPS-N and CHEOPS
T. Zingales, L. Malavolta, L. Borsato +130
We present the discovery of two mini Neptunes near a 2:1 orbital resonance configuration orbiting the K0 star TOI-1803. We describe their orbital architecture in detail and suggest…
In-situ observations of resident space objects with the CHEOPS space telescope
Nicolas Billot, Stephan Hellmich, Willy Benz +80
The CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite (CHEOPS) is a partnership between the European Space Agency and Switzerland with important contributions by 10 additional ESA member States.…
TOI-757 b: an eccentric transiting mini-Neptune on a 17.5-d orbit
A. Alqasim, N. Grieves, N. M. Rosário +129
We report the spectroscopic confirmation and fundamental properties of TOI-757 b, a mini-Neptune on a 17.5-day orbit transiting a bright star ( mag) discovered by the TESS…
Photo-dynamical characterisation of the TOI-178 resonant chain
A. Leleu, J. -B. Delisle, L. Delrez +104
The TOI-178 system consists of a nearby late K-dwarf transited by six planets in the super-Earth to mini-Neptune regime, with radii ranging from 1.2 to 2.9 earth radius and orbital…
The tidal deformation and atmosphere of WASP-12b from its phase curve
B. Akinsanmi, S. C. C. Barros, M. Lendl +85
Ultra-hot Jupiters present a unique opportunity to understand the physics and chemistry of planets at extreme conditions. WASP-12b stands out as an archetype of this class of exopl…
CHEOPS and TESS view of the ultra-short period super-Earth TOI-561 b
J. A. Patel, J. A. Egger, T. G. Wilson +75
Ultra-short period planets (USPs) are a unique class of super-Earths with an orbital period of less than a day and hence subject to intense radiation from their host star. While mo…
Discovery of TOI-1260d and the characterisation of the multi-planet system
Kristine W. F. Lam, J. Cabrera, M. J. Hooton +83
We report the discovery of a third planet transiting the star TOI-1260, previously known to host two transiting sub-Neptune planets with orbital periods of 3.127 and 7.493 days, re…
Detection of the tidal deformation of WASP-103b at with CHEOPS
S. C. C. Barros, B. Akinsanm, G. Boué +5
WASP-103b is the exoplanet with the highest expected deformation signature in its transit light curve and one of the shortest expected spiral-in times. Measuring the tidal deformat…
Exploiting timing capabilities of the CHEOPS mission with warm-Jupiter planets
Borsato L, Piotto G, Gandolfi D +75
We present 17 transit light curves of seven known warm-Jupiters observed with the CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite (CHEOPS). The light curves have been collected as part of the C…
A transit survey to search for planets around hot subdwarfs: I. methods and performance tests on light curves from Kepler, K2, TESS, and CHEOPS
V. Van Grootel, F. J. Pozuelos, A. Thuillier +79
Context. Hot subdwarfs experienced strong mass loss on the Red Giant Branch (RGB) and are now hot and small He-burning objects. Aims. In this project we aim to perform a transit su…
The CHEOPS mission
Willy Benz, Christopher Broeg, Andrea Fortier +107
The CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite (CHEOPS) was selected in 2012, as the first small mission in the ESA Science Programme and successfully launched in December 2019. CHEOPS is…
