Transit Timing Variations in HIP 41378: CHEOPS and TESS confirm a non-transiting sixth planet in the system
P. Leonardi, L. Borsato, L. Pagliaro +89
In multiple-planet systems, gravitational interactions of exoplanets could lead to transit timing variations (TTVs), whose amplitude becomes significantly enhanced when planets are…
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…
