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…
CHEOPS observations of V1298 Tau: updated planetary densities and implications on the early evolution of the young system
Hinna Shivkumar, Sérgio Gomes, Jean-Michel Désert +9
The young (10-30 Myr) multi-planet system V1298 Tau presents a unique opportunity to probe the early formation and evolution of young systems. We present new CHEOPS observations of…
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. ZieliÅski +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…
Assessment of PLATO Science Performance
Juan Cabrera, Heike Rauer, Reza Samadi +121
The PLATO mission is scheduled for launch early 2027. In this paper we present an overview of the performance drivers for the mission at the time where all flight models of the cam…
Gas-depleted planet formation occurred in the four-planet system around the red dwarf LHS 1903
Thomas G. Wilson, Anna M. Simpson, Andrew Collier Cameron +173
Small exoplanet radii show two populations, referred to as super-Earths and sub-Neptunes, separated by a gap known as the radius valley. This may be produced by the removal of atmo…
Detached eclipsing binary star science in the 2040s
Pierre F. L. Maxted, Dominic M. Bowman, Thomas G. Wilson +7
Detached eclipsing binary stars (DEBS) are currently the best source of accurate and precise fundamental stellar parameters. This makes DEBS crucial targets for constraining the im…
