MORFEO: Advancing Towards Final Design

Lorenzo Busoni, Guido Agapito, Marco Bonaglia +106

The Multiconjugate adaptive Optics Relay For ELT Observations (MORFEO) is a first-generation adaptive optics module for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), designed to deliver a d…

An Ultra-Short Period Super-Earth and a Sub-Neptune Orbiting the K dwarf TOI-4311

Yoshi Nike Emilia Eschen, Thomas G. Wilson, Andrew Collier Cameron +95

We report the discovery and characterisation of the multi-planetary system around TOI-4311, a K dwarf kinematically between the Galactic thick disk and Hercules stream. TOI-4311 ho…

Assessment of PLATO Science Performance

Juan Cabrera, Heike Rauer, Reza Samadi +121

The PLATO mission is scheduled for launch early 2027. In this paper we present an overview of the performance drivers for the mission at the time where all flight models of the cam…

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…

Continuous Wide-Field Optical Monitoring for Very Early-Phase Transient Discovery

Massimo Della Valle, Maria Teresa Botticella, Enrico Cappellaro +40

The study of transient phenomena in a multimessenger context is expected to remain a major pillar of astrophysical discovery in the decades ahead. Supernovae, Kilonovae, Black-Hole…

Interfacing adaptive optics simulations with the optical model: a powerful tool for MORFEO

Giorgio Pariani, Guido Agapito, Demetrio Magrin +5

In the framework of the MORFEO project, the Multi-Conjugated Adaptive Optics (MCAO) module for the European Extremely Large Telescope (ELT), we developed an integrated modeling too…
