Confirmation of a non-transiting planet in the habitable zone of the nearby M dwarf L 98-59

Paul Schwarz, Stefan Dreizler, René Heller

Only 40 exoplanetary systems with five or more planets are currently known. These systems are crucial for our understanding of planet formation and planet-planet interaction. The M…

A false positive transit candidate for EPIC 211101996 from K2 and TESS data identified as background eclipsing binary Gaia DR3 66767847894609792

René Heller, Milena Hüschen, Jan-Vincent Harre +1

Transiting planets around young stars are hard to find due to the enhanced stellar activity. Only a few transiting planets have been detected around stars younger than 100 Myr. We…

The TEMPO Survey II: Science Cases Leveraged from a Proposed 30-Day Time Domain Survey of the Orion Nebula with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope

Melinda Soares-Furtado, Mary Anne Limbach, Andrew Vanderburg +26

The TEMPO (Transiting Exosatellites, Moons, and Planets in Orion) Survey is a proposed 30-day observational campaign using the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. By providing deep,…

Exomoons & Exorings with the Habitable Worlds Observatory I: On the Detection of Earth-Moon Analog Shadows & Eclipses

Mary Anne Limbach, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger, Andrew Vanderburg +3

The highest priority recommendation of the Astro2020 Decadal Survey for space-based astronomy was the construction of an observatory capable of characterizing habitable worlds. In…

Large Exomoons unlikely around Kepler-1625 b and Kepler-1708 b

René Heller, Michael Hippke

There are more than 200 moons in our Solar System, but their relatively small radii make similarly sized extrasolar moons very hard to detect with current instruments. The best exo…

Estimating transiting exoplanet masses from precise optical photometry

D. Mislis, R. Heller, J. H. M. M. Schmitt +1

We present a theoretical analysis of the optical light curves (LCs) for short-period high-mass transiting extrasolar planet systems. Our method considers the primary transit, the s…
