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…
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…
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…
NGTS-EB-7, an eccentric, long-period, low-mass eclipsing binary
Toby Rodel, Christopher. A. Watson, Solène Ulmer-Moll +35
Despite being the most common types of stars in the Galaxy, the physical properties of late M dwarfs are often poorly constrained. A trend of radius inflation compared to evolution…
