Spinning out of focus: The challenge of rotational line broadening in exoplanet reflection spectroscopy
T. O. Winterhalder, K. Molaverdikhani, D. Cont +17
Detecting light reflected off the dayside of an exoplanet in high-resolution spectroscopic data has proved to be a notoriously difficult endeavour. Despite several attempts, the fa…
A gem system with a lava world and a habitable zone sub-Neptune orbiting TOI-1752
A. Peláez-Torres, F. J. Pozuelos, G. Morello +47
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has delivered a large number of transiting planet candidates around nearby stars by identifying periodic decreases in stellar brigh…
The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs. A homogeneous catalogue of projected rotational velocities accounting for limb-darkening
R. Varas, G. Morello, M. Zechmeister +18
Stellar rotation is closely linked to both age and magnetic activity. Through gyrochronology, it provides a means to estimate stellar ages and trace the evolution of planetary syst…
WD 1054-226 revisited: a stable transiting debris system
J. Korth, A. J. Mustill, H. Parviainen +24
A growing number of white dwarfs (WDs) exhibit one or more signs of remnant planetary systems, including transits, infrared excesses, and atmospheric metal pollution. WD 1054-226 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…
Tighter constraints on the atmosphere of GJ 436 b from combined high-resolution CARMENES and CRIRES observations
A. Peláez-Torres, A. Sánchez-López, L. Nortmann +23
We aim to study the atmospheric properties of the warm Neptune GJ 436 b by combining a set of five transit events observed with the CARMENES spectrograph with one transit from CRIR…
