The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs. The impact of rotation and magnetic fields on the radial velocity jitter in cool stars
H. L. Ruh, M. Zechmeister, A. Reiners +19
Radial velocity (RV) jitter represents an intrinsic limitation on the precision of Doppler searches for exoplanets that can originate from both instrumental and astrophysical sourc…
Retrieving wind properties from the ultra-hot dayside of WASP-189b with CRIRES
F. Lesjak, L. Nortmann, D. Cont +12
The extreme temperature gradients from day- to nightside in the atmospheres of hot Jupiters generate fast winds in the form of equatorial jets or day-to-night flows. Observations o…
Revisiting the dynamical masses of the transiting planets in the young AU Mic system: Potential AU Mic b inflation at 20 Myr
M. MallorquÃn, V. J. S. Béjar, N. Lodieu +26
Understanding planet formation is important in the context of the origin of planetary systems in general and of the Solar System in particular, as well as to predict the likelihood…
The MOPYS project: A survey of 70 planets in search of extended He I and H atmospheres. No evidence of enhanced evaporation in young planets
J. Orell-Miquel, F. Murgas, E. Pallé +30
During the first Gyr of their life, exoplanet atmospheres suffer from different atmospheric escape phenomena that can strongly affect the shape and morphology of the exoplanet itse…
A conclusive non-detection of magnetic field in the Am star o Peg with high-precision near-infrared spectroscopy
O. Kochukhov, A. M. Amarsi, A. Lavail +10
The A-type metallic-line (Am) stars are typically considered to be non-magnetic or possessing very weak sub-G magnetic fields. This view has been repeatedly challenged in the liter…
Detection of Fe and Ti on the dayside of the ultrahot Jupiter MASCARA-1b with CARMENES
B. Guo, F. Yan, L. Nortmann +20
Ultrahot Jupiters are a type of gaseous exoplanet that orbit extremely close to their host star, resulting in significantly high equilibrium temperatures. In recent years, high-res…
