The CHEOPS view of HD 95338b: refined transit parameters, and a search for exomoons
Sz. Kálmán, A. E. Simon, A. Deline +90
Despite the ever-increasing number of known exoplanets, no uncontested detections have been made of their satellites, known as exomoons. The quest to find exomoons is at the forefr…

Z. Garai, A. Krenn, P. E. Cubillos +84
Ultrahot Jupiters are predicted to show inverted temperature-pressure (T-P) profiles in the presence of optical absorbers such as TiO and VO. An inverted T-P profile of KELT-7b was…

We present new observations from CHEOPS and TESS to clarify the architecture of the planetary system hosted by the old Galactic thick disk star TOI-561. Our global analysis, which…
The CHEOPS view on the climate of WASP-3 b
G. Scandariato, L. Carone, P. E. Cubillos +83
Hot Jupiters are giant planets subject to intense stellar radiation. The physical and chemical properties of their atmosphere makes them the most amenable targets for the atmospher…
The K2-24 planetary system revisited by CHEOPS
V. Nascimbeni, L. Borsato, P. Leonardi +82
K2-24 is a planetary system composed of two transiting low-density Neptunians locked in an almost perfect 2:1 resonance and showing large TTVs, i.e., an excellent laboratory to sea…
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…
Characterisation of the Warm-Jupiter TOI-1130 system with CHEOPS and photo-dynamical approach
L. Borsato, D. Degen, A. Leleu +93
Among the thousands of exoplanets discovered to date, approximately a few hundred gas giants on short-period orbits are classified as "lonely" and only a few are in a multi-planet…

J. A. Egger, H. P. Osborn, D. Kubyshkina +91
Multiplanetary systems spanning the radius valley are ideal testing grounds for exploring the proposed explanations for the observed bimodality in the radius distribution of close-…
CHEOPS in-flight performance: A comprehensive look at the first 3.5 years of operations
A. Fortier, A. E. Simon, C. Broeg +128
CHEOPS is a space telescope specifically designed to monitor transiting exoplanets orbiting bright stars. In September 2023, CHEOPS completed its nominal mission and remains in exc…
