Understanding the origin and evolution of planetary atmospheres, and the connection between their lower and upper atmospheric layers, remains a fundamental challenge in exoplanet s…
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…

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…
The multi-planet system TOI-5624: Four transiting sub-Neptunes with an outer companion revealed by transit-timing variations

Following the 2022 alert of a TESS object of interest transiting TOI-5624 (a G7 V star 100 pc away), a CHEOPS campaign in 2023 detected four planetary signals at $P_b\approx3…
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…
An Ultra-Short Period Super-Earth and Sub-Neptune Spanning the Radius Valley Orbiting the Kinematic Thick Disk Star TOI-2345
Yoshi Nike Emilia Eschen, Thomas G. Wilson, Andrea Bonfanti +94
A crucial chemical link between stars and their orbiting exoplanets is thought to exist. If universal, this connection could affect the formation and evolution of all planets. Ther…
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…
A possible misaligned orbit for the young planet AU Mic c
H. Yu, Z. Garai, M. Cretignier +98
The AU Microscopii planetary system is only 24 Myr old, and its geometry may provide clues about the early dynamical history of planetary systems. Here, we present the first measur…
