Atmospheric Reconnaissance of TRAPPIST-1 f with JWST NIRISS SOSS: No Evidence for the Transit Light Source Effect
Olivia Lim, René Doyon, Ryan J. MacDonald +25
In just over three years of operation, JWST has observed all seven planets of the TRAPPIST-1 system. The two innermost planets were found to have little to no atmosphere, barring t…
Super-Earth masses and stellar abundances from NIRPS reveal tentative evidence for water-rich formation around M dwarfs
Drew Weisserman, Nicole Gromek, Ryan Cloutier +98
Tracing the compositional link between terrestrial super-Earths and their host stars provides clues to their dominant formation pathway. By constraining the stellar abundances of r…
NIRPS tightens the mass estimate of GJ 3090 b and detects a planet near the stellar rotation period
Pierrot Lamontagne, Drew Weisserman, Charles Cadieux +148
We present an updated characterization of the planetary system orbiting the nearby M2 dwarf GJ 3090 (TOI-177; pc), based on new high-precision radial velocity (RV) observa…
Evidence of 1:1 slope between rocky Super-Earths and their host stars
Mykhaylo Plotnykov, Diana Valencia, Alejandra Ross +2
The relationship between the composition of rocky exoplanets and their host stars is fundamental to understanding planetary formation and evolution. However, previous studies have…
A Thick Volatile Atmosphere on the Ultrahot Super-Earth TOI-561 b
Johanna K. Teske, Nicole L. Wallack, Anjali A. A. Piette +10
Ultrashort-period (USP) exoplanets -- with R and periods 1 day -- are expected to be stripped of volatile atmospheres by intense host star irradiation…
NIRPS and TESS reveal a peculiar system around the M dwarf TOI-756: A transiting sub-Neptune and a cold eccentric giant
Léna Parc, François Bouchy, Neil J. Cook +148
The Near InfraRed Planet Searcher (NIRPS) joined HARPS on the 3.6-m ESO telescope at La Silla Observatory in April 2023, dedicating part of its Guaranteed Time Observations (GTO) p…
