The GAPS Programme at TNG XXVIII -- A pair of hot-Neptunes orbiting the young star TOI-942

Ilaria Carleo, Silvano Desidera, Domenico Nardiello +48

Both young stars and multi-planet systems are primary objects that allow us to study, understand and constrain planetary formation and evolution theories. We validate the physical…

Stellar occultations enable milliarcsecond astrometry for Trans-Neptunian objects and Centaurs

F. L. Rommel, F. Braga-Ribas, J. Desmars +66

Trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) and Centaurs are remnants of our planetary system formation, and their physical properties have invaluable information for evolutionary theories. Ste…

The hot dayside and asymmetric transit of WASP-189b seen by CHEOPS

M. Lendl, Sz. Csizmadia, A. Deline +102

The CHEOPS space mission dedicated to exoplanet follow-up was launched in December 2019, equipped with the capacity to perform photometric measurements at the 20 ppm level. As CHEO…

The CHEOPS mission

Willy Benz, Christopher Broeg, Andrea Fortier +107

The CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite (CHEOPS) was selected in 2012, as the first small mission in the ESA Science Programme and successfully launched in December 2019. CHEOPS is…

A search for transiting planets around FGKM dwarfs and sub-giants in the TESS Full Frame Images of the Southern ecliptic hemisphere

M. Montalto, L. Borsato, V. Granata +6

In this work, we present the analysis of 976 814 FGKM dwarf and sub-giant stars in the TESS Full Frame Images (FFIs) of the Southern ecliptic hemisphere. We present a new pipeline,…

Probing the atmosphere of HD189733b with the Na I and K I lines

E. Keles, D. Kitzmann, M. Mallonn +12

High spectral resolution transmission spectroscopy is a powerful tool to characterize exoplanet atmospheres. Especially for hot Jupiters, this technique is highly relevant, due to…

Hot Exoplanet Atmospheres Resolved with Transit Spectroscopy (HEARTS) IV. A spectral inventory of atoms and molecules in the high-resolution transmission spectrum of WASP-121 b

H. J. Hoeijmakers, J. V. Seidel, L. Pino +22

Aims: We survey the transmission spectrum of WASP-121 b for line-absorption by metals and molecules at high spectral resolution, and elaborate on existing interpretations of the op…

The size, shape, density and ring of the dwarf planet Haumea from a stellar occultation

J. L. Ortiz, P. Santos-Sanz, B. Sicardy +90

Among the four known transneptunian dwarf planets, Haumea is an exotic, very elongated, and fast rotating body. In contrast to the other dwarf planets, its size, shape, albedo, and…

The large Trans-Neptunian Object 2002 TC from combined stellar occultation, photometry and astrometry data

J. L. Ortiz, P. Santos-Sanz, B. Sicardy +78

On 28th January 2018, the large Trans-Neptunian Object (TNO) 2002TC302 occulted a m15.3 star with ID 130957813463146112 in the Gaia DR2 stellar catalog. 12 positive occultati…

The GAPS programme at TNG XXII. The GIARPS view of the extended helium atmosphere of HD189733 b accounting for stellar activity

G. Guilluy, V. Andretta, F. Borsa +48

Exoplanets orbiting very close to their host star are strongly irradiated. This can lead the upper atmospheric layers to expand and evaporate into space. The metastable helium (HeI…

The GAPS Programme at TNG -- XXIII. HD 164922 d: a close-in super-Earth discovered with HARPS-N in a system with a long-period Saturn mass companion

S. Benatti, M. Damasso, S. Desidera +41

In the framework of the Global Architecture of Planetary Systems (GAPS) project we collected more than 300 spectra with HARPS-N at the TNG for the bright G9V star HD164922. This ta…

Neutral Iron Emission Lines From The Day-side Of KELT-9b -- The GAPS Programme With HARPS-N At TNG XX

L. Pino, J. M. Désert, M. Brogi +47

We present the first detection of atomic emission lines from the atmosphere of an exoplanet. We detect neutral iron lines from the day-side of KELT-9b (Teq 4, 000 K). We com…

Hot Exoplanet Atmospheres Resolved with Transit Spectroscopy (HEARTS) III. Atmospheric structure of the misaligned ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-121b

V. Bourrier, D. Ehrenreich, M. Lendl +21

Ultra-hot Jupiters offer interesting prospects for expanding our theories on dynamical evolution and the properties of extremely irradiated atmospheres. In this context, we present…
