Constraining Small Planet Compositions for Future Missions
Larissa Palethorpe, Annelies Mortier, Jo Ann Egger +14
Accurate mass and radius measurements of small transiting exoplanets are essential for probing their compositions, formation histories, and potential habitability. We present a uni…
HARPS-N, TESS, and CHEOPS discover a transiting sub-Neptune and two outer companions around the bright solar analogue HD 85426
F. Lienhard, A. Mortier, A. Collier Cameron +96
We provide a detailed characterisation of the planetary system orbiting HD 85426 (TOI-1774). This bright G-type star (: 0.99 ; : 1.13 $\text{R…
Granulation on a quiet K dwarf: HD 166620 I. Spectral signatures as a function of line-formation temperature
Ancy Anna John, Khaled Al Moulla, Niamh K. O'Sullivan +14
As Radial velocity (RV) spectrographs reach unprecedented precision and stability below 1 m/s, the challenge of granulation in the context of exoplanet detection has intensified. D…
The HD 60779 Planetary System: A Transiting Sub-Neptune on a 30-day Orbit and a More Massive Outer World
Victoria DiTomasso, David Charbonneau, Andrew Vanderburg +37
We present the discovery of the planetary system orbiting the bright (V = 7.2), nearby (35 pc), Sun-like star HD 60779, which has a mass of 1.050 +/- 0.044 solar masses and a radiu…
Discovery of a multi-planetary system orbiting the aged Sun-like star HD 224018
M. Damasso, L. Naponiello, A. Anna John +22
In 2016, Kepler/K2 detected a system of two sub-Neptunes transiting the star HD 224018, one of them showing a mono-transit event. In 2017, we began a spectroscopic follow-up with H…
In-depth characterization of the Kepler-10 three-planet system with HARPS-N radial velocities and Kepler transit timing variations
A. S. Bonomo, L. Borsato, V. M. Rajpaul +25
The old G3V star Kepler-10 is known to host two transiting planets, the ultra-short-period super-Earth Kepler-10b ( d; ) and the long-period s…
