Phosphorus abundances and multi-element co-enrichment in nearby FGK stars

Dario Esposito, Giovanni Covone, Donato Giovannelli +9

The distribution of bio-essential elements is key to assessing the chemical fertility of galactic environments. We analyse phosphorus abundances for 233 nearby FGK stars from the H…

The PLATO field selection process III. Selection of the Prime Sample for the LOPS2 field

V. Nascimbeni, G. Piotto, V. Granata +30

The PLanetary Transits and Oscillations of stars (PLATO) mission will begin its four-year nominal mission in early 2027 by monitoring its Long-duration Observation Phase field at S…

Characterization of two new transiting sub-Neptunes and a terrestrial planet around M-dwarf hosts

E. Poultourtzidis, G. Lacedelli, E. Pallé +49

We report the confirmation of three transiting exoplanets orbiting TOI-1243 (LSPM~J0902+7138), TOI-4529 (G~2--21), and TOI-5388 (Wolf~346) that were initially detected by TESS thro…

Predictions of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Galactic Exoplanet Survey. V. Detection Rates of Multiplanetary Systems in High Magnification Microlensing Events

Vito Saggese, Étienne Bachelet, Sebastiano Calchi Novati +34

The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will expand the reach of gravitational microlensing surveys by increasing the number of events monitored and the precision of their light curv…

TOI-333b: A Neptune Desert planet around a F7V star

Douglas R. Alves, James S. Jenkins, José I. Vinés +29

Observations have shown that planets similar to Neptune are rarely found orbiting Sun-like stars with periods up to ~4 days, defining the so-called Neptune desert region. Therefore…

DART-Vetter: A Deep LeARning Tool for automatic triage of exoplanet candidates

Stefano Fiscale, Laura Inno, Alessandra Rotundi +12

In the identification of new planetary candidates in transit surveys, the employment of Deep Learning models proved to be essential to efficiently analyse a continuously growing vo…

Revisiting the conundrum of the sub-Jovian and Neptune desert. A new approach that incorporates stellar properties

Christian Magliano, Giovanni Covone, Enrico Corsaro +5

The search for exoplanets has led to the identification of intriguing patterns in their distributions, one of which is the so-called sub-Jovian and Neptune desert. The occurrence r…

VBMicroLensing: three algorithms for multiple lensing with contour integration

V. Bozza, V. Saggese, G. Covone +2

Modeling of microlensing events poses computational challenges for the resolution of the lens equation and the high dimensionality of the parameter space. In particular, numerical…

Three short-period Earth-sized planets around M dwarfs discovered by TESS: TOI-5720b, TOI-6008b and TOI-6086b

K. Barkaoui, R. P. Schwarz, N. Narita +53

One of the main goals of the NASA's TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) mission is the discovery of Earth-like planets around nearby M-dwarf stars. Here, we present the di…

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME) XI: An Earth-sized Planet Orbiting a Nearby, Solar-like Host in the 400Myr Ursa Major Moving Group

Benjamin K. Capistrant, Melinda Soares-Furtado, Andrew Vanderburg +32

Young terrestrial worlds are critical test beds to constrain prevailing theories of planetary formation and evolution. We present the discovery of HD 63433d - a nearby (22pc), Eart…
