TOI-396 is an F6V star () orbited by three transiting planets. The orbital periods of the two innermost planets are close to the 5:3 commensurability ( d…
Assessing the processes behind planet engulfment and its imprints
B. M. T. B. Soares, V. Adibekyan, C. Mordasini +5
Throughout a planetary system's formation evolution, some of the planetary material may end up falling into the host star and be engulfed by it, leading to a potential variation of…
A close outer companion to the ultra-hot Jupiter TOI-2109 b?
J. -V. Harre, A. M. S. Smith, S. C. C. Barros +86
Hot Jupiters with close-by planetary companions are rare, with only a handful of them having been discovered so far. This could be due to their suggested dynamical histories, leadi…

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…
Linking the primordial composition of planet building disks to the present-day composition of rocky exoplanets
V. Adibekyan, M. Deal, C. Dorn +16
The composition of rocky planets is strongly driven by the primordial materials in the protoplanetary disk, which can be inferred from the abundances of the host star. Understandin…
The obliquity and atmosphere of the hot Jupiter WASP-122b (KELT-14b) with ESPRESSO: An aligned orbit and no sign of atomic or molecular absorption
M. Stangret, E. Palle, E. Esparza-Borges +21
Thanks to their short orbital periods and hot extended atmospheres, hot Jupiters are ideal candidates for atmosphere studies with high-resolution spectroscopy. New stable spectrogr…
A sub-Earth-mass planet orbiting Barnard's star
J. I. Gonzalez Hernandez, A. Suarez Mascareno, A. M. Silva +37
Barnard's star is a primary target within the ESPRESSO guaranteed time observations (GTO) as it is the second closest neighbour to our Sun after the Centauri stellar system. We…
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…
SWEET-Cat: A view on the planetary mass-radius relation
S. G. Sousa, V. Adibekyan, E. Delgado-Mena +9
SWEET-Cat (Stars With ExoplanETs Catalogue) was originally introduced in 2013, and since then, the number of confirmed exoplanets has increased significantly. A crucial step for a…
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…
ANDES, the high resolution spectrograph for the ELT: science goals, project overview and future developments
A. Marconi, M. Abreu, V. Adibekyan +286
The first generation of ELT instruments includes an optical-infrared high-resolution spectrograph, indicated as ELT-HIRES and recently christened ANDES (ArmazoNes high Dispersion E…
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…
The TROY project III. Exploring co-orbitals around low-mass stars
O. Balsalobre-Ruza, J. Lillo-Box, D. Barrado +7
Co-orbital objects, also known as trojans, are frequently found in simulations of planetary system formation. In these configurations, a planet shares its orbit with other massive…
Unveiling the internal structure and formation history of the three planets transiting HIP 29442 (TOI-469) with CHEOPS
