HRMOS: A High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph for the VLT
Laura Magrini, Thomas Bensby, Sofia Randich +174
This White Paper presents the scientific rationale and instrument concept for HRMOS (High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph), a next-generation instrument proposed for the ESO V…
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…
Searching for Exoplanets Born Outside the Milky Way: VOYAGERS Survey Design
Robert Aloisi, Andrew Vanderburg, Melinda Soares-Furtado +44
Observations over the past few decades have found that planets are common around nearby stars in our Galaxy, but little is known about planets that formed outside the Milky Way. We…
The mass of the exo-Venus Gliese 12 b, as revealed by HARPS-N, ESPRESSO, and CARMENES
Daisy A. Turner, Yoshi Nike Emilia Eschen, Felipe Murgas +60
Small temperate planets are prime targets for exoplanet studies due to their possible similarities with the rocky planets in the Solar System. M dwarfs are promising hosts since th…
The HD 60779 Planetary System: A Transiting Sub-Neptune on a 30-day Orbit and a More Massive Outer World
Victoria DiTomasso, David Charbonneau, Andrew Vanderburg +37
We present the discovery of the planetary system orbiting the bright (V = 7.2), nearby (35 pc), Sun-like star HD 60779, which has a mass of 1.050 +/- 0.044 solar masses and a radiu…
