CHEOPS photometry from 2024 reveals a reversal in the transit-timing variations of AU Mic c

Z. Garai, Gy. M. Szabó, D. Gandolfi +90

We present new CHEOPS transit observations of AU Mic b and AU Mic c obtained between June and September 2024, extending the baseline of transit-timing measurements of this young pl…

HD 148797: A bright F-type star with two moderate-period low-density sub-Jovian planets. Compact multi-planet architectures are common in the Neptunian savanna

J. M. Almenara, A. Castro-González, R. Mardling +26

We report the confirmation and characterisation of two moderate-period sub-Jovian planets transiting the bright F-type star HD 148797 (G=9.4 mag, Teff=6441 +/- 51 K). Using photome…

Spin-Orbit Geometry of AU Mic b and c from Back-to-Back Transits Observed Contemporaneously with Magellan PFS, LCOGT, and CHEOPS

Zitao Lin, Gyula M. Szabó, Krzysztof Sz. Zieliński +37

Young planets offer a unique window into the early stages of planetary evolution. AU Mic is one of the nearest (9.8 pc) pre-main sequence stars (~20 Myr), hosting two transiting Ne…

An Ultra-Short Period Super-Earth and a Sub-Neptune Orbiting the K dwarf TOI-4311

Yoshi Nike Emilia Eschen, Thomas G. Wilson, Andrew Collier Cameron +95

We report the discovery and characterisation of the multi-planetary system around TOI-4311, a K dwarf kinematically between the Galactic thick disk and Hercules stream. TOI-4311 ho…

Ever Elusive Exospheres: One Probable Detection and Two Non-Detections of Hα Transits in Young Systems

Reilly P. Milburn, Andrew W. Mann, Keighley Rockcliffe +5

Gaps in the exoplanet population, such as the Neptunian Desert, point to the importance of mass-loss in sculpting the radii of close-in exoplanets. Young planets (500Myr) offer…

An Ultra-Short Period Super-Earth and Sub-Neptune Spanning the Radius Valley Orbiting the Kinematic Thick Disk Star TOI-2345

Yoshi Nike Emilia Eschen, Thomas G. Wilson, Andrea Bonfanti +94

A crucial chemical link between stars and their orbiting exoplanets is thought to exist. If universal, this connection could affect the formation and evolution of all planets. Ther…
