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…

SOPHIE and TESS characterization of fourteen TESS Objects of Interest: nine planetary systems and five low-mass stellar companions

N. Heidari, G. Hébrard, S. Sousa +61

We present fourteen TESS Objects of Interest (TOIs) from the SOPHIE-TESS follow-up program. Combining TESS photometry, SOPHIE radial velocities (RVs), ground-based photometry, and…

Refined parameters, formation, and dynamical stability of the wild exoplanet system K2-312=HD 80653

L. Naponiello, E. Poretti, K. Rice +24

The architecture of planetary systems hosting ultra-short-period (USP) planets is a key diagnostic for understanding formation and migration scenarios. The presence of outer giant…

Following up the Kepler field with PLATO: Transit Timing Performance

Morgan A. Mitchell, James McCormac, Don Pollacco +11

The European Space Agency is set to launch PLATO, the third medium-class mission of its Cosmic Vision programme, in early 2027. Using the transit method, PLATO is expected to detec…

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…

Variability classification of TESS targets in LOPS2, the first long-term pointing field of PLATO. Version 1 of the public variability catalogue

Mykyta Kliapets, Pablo Huijse, Jeroen Audenaert +28

The PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars (PLATO) mission is expected to launch in January 2027. A total of 8\% of its data rate will be dedicated to complementary science t…

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…

Constraining Small Planet Compositions for Future Missions

Larissa Palethorpe, Annelies Mortier, Jo Ann Egger +14

Accurate mass and radius measurements of small transiting exoplanets are essential for probing their compositions, formation histories, and potential habitability. We present a uni…

Mass estimates of the young TOI-451 transiting planets: Multidimensional Gaussian Process on stellar spectroscopic and photometric signals

Oscar Barragán, Manuel Mallorquín, Jorge Fernández-Fernández +30

The young TOI-451 planetary system, aged 125 Myr, provides a unique opportunity to test theories of planetary internal structures and atmospheric mass loss through examination of i…
