Searching for hot water world candidates with CHEOPS: II. A low-density super-Earth orbiting the K dwarf TOI-2211

J. A. Egger, P. Cortés-Zuleta, D. Kubyshkina +98

Small exoplanets on close-in orbits are exposed to high levels of stellar irradiation, which can effectively remove low-mass primordial H/He envelopes through atmospheric escape. U…

Giant Outer Transiting Exoplanet Mass (GOTEM) Survey.VII. TOI-6041: a multi-planet system including a warm Neptune exhibiting strong TTVs

N. Heidari, A. Alnajjarine, H. P. Osborn +101

We present the characterization of the TOI-6041 system, a bright () G7-type star hosting at least two planets. The inner planet, TOI-6041b, is a warm Neptune wit…

HARPS-N, TESS, and CHEOPS discover a transiting sub-Neptune and two outer companions around the bright solar analogue HD 85426

F. Lienhard, A. Mortier, A. Collier Cameron +96

We provide a detailed characterisation of the planetary system orbiting HD 85426 (TOI-1774). This bright G-type star (: 0.99 ; : 1.13 $\text{R…

Transit Timing Variations in HIP 41378: CHEOPS and TESS confirm a non-transiting sixth planet in the system

P. Leonardi, L. Borsato, L. Pagliaro +89

In multiple-planet systems, gravitational interactions of exoplanets could lead to transit timing variations (TTVs), whose amplitude becomes significantly enhanced when planets are…

A four-planet system orbiting the old thick disk star TOI-1203

D. Gandolfi, A. Alnajjarine, L. M. Serrano +120

TOI-1203 is a bright (V=8.6) G3 V star known to host a transiting warm sub-Neptune on a 25.5 d orbit. Here we report on an intensive high-precision radial velocity and photometric…

Improved characterization of the TOI-2141 system: a dense sub-Neptune with non-transiting inner and outer companions

R. Luque, K. W. F. Lam, J. Cabrera +87

We aim to refine the fundamental parameters of the TOI-2141 planetary system, which includes a transiting sub-Neptune orbiting a Sun-like star in a relatively long orbit of 18.26 d…

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…

The KELT-7b atmospheric thermal-inversion conundrum revisited with CHEOPS, TESS, and additional data

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…

Dark skies of the slightly eccentric WASP-18 b from its optical-to-infrared dayside emission

A. Deline, P. E. Cubillos, L. Carone +86

We performed a joint analysis of phase-curve observations of the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-18 b from the visible to the mid-infrared, using data from CHEOPS, TESS and Spitzer. We aim…

Searching for Hot Water World Candidates with CHEOPS: Refining the radii and analysing the internal structures and atmospheric lifetimes of TOI-238 b and TOI-1685 b

J. A. Egger, D. Kubyshkina, Y. Alibert +85

Studying the composition of exoplanets is one of the most promising approaches to observationally constrain planet formation and evolution processes. However, this endeavour is com…

Transit-timing variations in the AU Mic system observed with CHEOPS

Á. Boldog, Gy. M. Szabó, L. Kriskovics +86

AU Mic is a very active M dwarf with an edge-on debris disk and two transiting sub-Neptunes with a possible third planetary companion. The two transiting planets exhibit significan…

CHEOPS observations confirm nodal precession in the WASP-33 system

A. M. S. Smith, Sz. Csizmadia, V. Van Grootel +86

Aims: We aim to observe the transits and occultations of WASP-33b, which orbits a rapidly-rotating Scuti pulsator, with the goal of measuring the orbital obliquity via the grav…

A joint effort to discover and characterize two resonant mini Neptunes around TOI-1803 with TESS, HARPS-N and CHEOPS

T. Zingales, L. Malavolta, L. Borsato +130

We present the discovery of two mini Neptunes near a 2:1 orbital resonance configuration orbiting the K0 star TOI-1803. We describe their orbital architecture in detail and suggest…

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…

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…
