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…
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…
Connecting photometric and spectroscopic granulation signals with CHEOPS and ESPRESSO
S. Sulis, M. Lendl, H. Cegla +83

A CHEOPS-enhanced view of the HD3167 system
V. Bourrier, A. Deline, A. Krenn +92
Much remains to be understood about the nature of exoplanets smaller than Neptune, most of which have been discovered in compact multi-planet systems. With its inner ultra-short pe…
The phase curve and the geometric albedo of WASP-43b measured with CHEOPS, TESS and HST WFC3/UVIS

Observations of the phase curves and secondary eclipses of extrasolar planets provide a window on the composition and thermal structure of the planetary atmospheres. For example, t…
CHEOPS finds KELT-1b darker than expected in visible light: Discrepancy between the CHEOPS and TESS eclipse depths
H. Parviainen, T. G. Wilson, M. Lendl +78
Recent TESS-based studies have suggested that the dayside of KELT-1b, a strongly-irradiated brown dwarf, is significantly brighter in visible light than what would be expected base…
The EBLM project -- IX. Five fully convective M-dwarfs, precisely measured with CHEOPS and TESS light curves
D. Sebastian, M. I. Swayne, P. F. L. Maxted +85
Eclipsing binaries are important benchmark objects to test and calibrate stellar structure and evolution models. This is especially true for binaries with a fully convective M-dwar…

Faith Hawthorn, Daniel Bayliss, Thomas G. Wilson +137
We present the discovery of two exoplanets transiting TOI-836 (TIC 440887364) using data from TESS Sector 11 and Sector 38. TOI-836 is a bright ( mag), high proper motion…
A stellar occultation by the transneptunian object (50000) Quaoar observed by CHEOPS
B. E. Morgado, G. Bruno, A. R. Gomes-Júnior +82
Stellar occultation is a powerful technique that allows the determination of some physical parameters of the occulting object. The result depends on the photometric accuracy, the t…
The stable climate of KELT-9b
K. D. Jones, B. M. Morris, B. -O. Demory +76
Even among the most irradiated gas giants, so-called ultra-hot Jupiters, KELT-9b stands out as the hottest planet thus far discovered with a dayside temperature of over 4500K. At t…
The HD 93963 A transiting system: A 1.04d super-Earth and a 3.65 d sub-Neptune discovered by TESS and CHEOPS
L. M. Serrano, D. Gandolfi, S. Hoyer +109
We present the discovery of two small planets transiting HD 93963A (TOI-1797), a G0\,V star (M=1.109\,\,0.043\,M, R=1.043\,\,0.009\,R) in a visual…
Fundamental effective temperature measurements for eclipsing binary stars -- III. SPIRou near-infrared spectroscopy and CHEOPS photometry of the benchmark G0V star EBLM J0113+31
P. F. L. Maxted, N. J. Miller, S. Hoyer +74
EBLM J0113+31 is moderately bright (V=10.1), metal-poor ([Fe/H]) G0V star with a much fainter M dwarf companion on a wide, eccentric orbit (=14.3 d). We have used near…

Zoltán Garai, Theodor Pribulla, József Kovács +4
Rapidly rotating early-type main-sequence stars with transiting planets are interesting in many aspects. Unfortunately, several astrophysical effects in such systems are not well u…
