We present the discovery of two mini Neptunes near a 2:1 orbital resonance configuration orbiting the K0 star TOI-1803. We describe their orbital architecture in detail and suggest…
History and Habitability of the LP 890-9 Planetary System
Rory Barnes, Laura N. R. do Amaral, Jessica Birky +42
We present numerous aspects of the evolution of the LP 890-9 (SPECULOOS-2/TOI-4306) planetary system, focusing on the likelihood that planet c can support life. We find that the ho…

M. Stangret, L. Fossati, M. C. D'Arpa +21
Ultra-hot Jupiters (UHJs) are gas giant planets orbiting close to their host star, with equilibrium temperatures exceeding 2000 K, and among the most studied planets in terms of th…
A sub-Earth-mass planet orbiting Barnard's star: No evidence of transits in TESS photometry
A. K. Stefanov, J. I. González Hernández, A. Suárez Mascareño +8
A sub-Earth-mass planet orbiting Barnard's star, designated as Barnard b, has been recently announced. At almost the same time, the first photometric data of Barnard's star by the…
A sub-Earth-mass planet orbiting Barnard's star
J. I. Gonzalez Hernandez, A. Suarez Mascareno, A. M. Silva +37
Barnard's star is a primary target within the ESPRESSO guaranteed time observations (GTO) as it is the second closest neighbour to our Sun after the Centauri stellar system. We…
Radio Signatures of Star-Planet Interactions, Exoplanets, and Space Weather
J. R. Callingham, B. J. S. Pope, R. D. Kavanagh +22
Radio detections of stellar systems provide a window onto stellar magnetic activity and the space weather conditions of extrasolar planets, information that is difficult to attain…
TOI-5005 b: A super-Neptune in the savanna near the ridge
A. Castro-González, J. Lillo-Box, D. J. Armstrong +38
The Neptunian desert and savanna have recently been found to be separated by a ridge, an overdensity of planets in the period range of 3-5 days. These features are thought…
The GAPS Programme at TNG. LXI. Atmospheric parameters and elemental abundances of TESS young exoplanet host stars
S. Filomeno, K. Biazzo, M. Baratella +26
The study of exoplanets at different evolutionary stages can shed light on their formation, migration, and evolution. The determination of exoplanet properties depends on the prope…
The GAPS Programme at TNG. LIX. A characterisation study of the 300 Myr old multi-planetary system orbiting the star BD+40 2790 (TOI-2076)
M. Damasso, D. Locci, S. Benatti +35
We collected more than 300 high-resolution spectra of the 300 Myr old star BD+40 2790 (TOI-2076) over ~3 years. This star hosts three transiting planets discovered by TESS, with or…
Revisiting the dynamical masses of the transiting planets in the young AU Mic system: Potential AU Mic b inflation at 20 Myr
M. Mallorquín, 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…
Unveiling the internal structure and formation history of the three planets transiting HIP 29442 (TOI-469) with CHEOPS
J. A. Egger, H. P. Osborn, D. Kubyshkina +91
Multiplanetary systems spanning the radius valley are ideal testing grounds for exploring the proposed explanations for the observed bimodality in the radius distribution of close-…
TOI-837 b: characterisation, formation and evolutionary history of an infant warm Saturn-mass planet
M. Damasso, D. Polychroni, D. Locci +15
We aim to determine the fundamental properties of the 35 Myr old star TOI-837 and its close-in Saturn-sized planet, and to investigate the system's formation and evolutionary…
Three super-Earths and a possible water world from TESS and ESPRESSO
