Contemporary formation of early solar system planetesimals at two distinct radial locations

Alessandro Morbidelli, Kevin Baillie, Konstantin Batygin +4

The formation of planetesimals is expected to occur via particle-gas instabilities that concentrate dust into self-gravitating clumps. Triggering these instabilities requires the p…

Analysis of Early Science observations with the CHaracterising ExOPlanets Satellite (CHEOPS) using pycheops

P. F. L. Maxted, D. Ehrenreich, T. G. Wilson +77

CHEOPS(CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite) is an ESA S-class mission that observes bright stars at high cadence from low-Earth orbit. The main aim of the mission is to characterize…

Spi-OPS: Spitzer and CHEOPS confirm the near-polar orbit of MASCARA-1 b and reveal a hint of dayside reflection

M. J. Hooton, S. Hoyer, D. Kitzmann +82

The light curves of tidally locked hot Jupiters transiting fast-rotating, early-type stars are a rich source of information about both the planet and star, with full-phase coverage…

Constraints on planetesimal accretion inferred from particle-size distribution in CO chondrites

Gabriel A. Pinto, Yves Marrocchi, Alessandro Morbidelli +5

The formation of planetesimals was a key step in the assemblage of planetary bodies, yet many aspects of their formation remain poorly constrained. Notably, the mechanism by which…

The changing face of AU Mic b: stellar spots, spin-orbit commensurability, and Transit Timing Variations as seen by CHEOPS and TESS

Gy. M. Szabó, D. Gandolfi, A. Brandeker +78

AU Mic is a young planetary system with a resolved debris disc showing signs of planet formation and two transiting warm Neptunes near mean-motion resonances. Here we analyse three…

Transit detection of the long-period volatile-rich super-Earth Lupi d with

Laetitia Delrez, David Ehrenreich, Yann Alibert +75

Exoplanets transiting bright nearby stars are key objects for advancing our knowledge of planetary formation and evolution. The wealth of photons from the host star gives detailed…
