ESPRESSO high resolution transmission spectroscopy of WASP-76b
H. M. Tabernero, M. R. Zapatero Osorio, R. Allart +87
Aims. We report on ESPRESSO high-resolution transmission spectroscopic observations of two primary transits of the highly-irradiated, ultra-hot Jupiter-size planet WASP-76b. We inv…
Broadband transmission spectroscopy of HD209458b with ESPRESSO: Evidence for Na, TiO, or both
N. C. Santos, E. Cristo, O. Demangeon +42
The detection and characterization of exoplanet atmospheres is currently one of the main drivers pushing the development of new observing facilities. In this context, high-resoluti…
The Magellan-TESS Survey I: Survey Description and Mid-Survey Results
Johanna Teske, Sharon Xuesong Wang, Angie Wolfgang +66
revealed that roughly one-third of Sun-like stars host planets orbiting within 100 days and between the size of Earth and Neptune. How do these planets form, what are they…
K2-111: an old system with two planets in near-resonance
A. Mortier, M. R. Zapatero Osorio, L. Malavolta +64
This paper reports on the detailed characterisation of the K2-111 planetary system with K2, WASP, and ASAS-SN photometry as well as high-resolution spectroscopic data from HARPS-N…
ESPRESSO@VLT -- On-sky performance and first results
F. Pepe, S. Cristiani, R. Rebolo +97
ESPRESSO is the new high-resolution spectrograph of ESO's Very-Large Telescope (VLT). It was designed for ultra-high radial-velocity precision and extreme spectral fidelity with th…
The hot dayside and asymmetric transit of WASP-189b seen by CHEOPS
M. Lendl, Sz. Csizmadia, A. Deline +102
The CHEOPS space mission dedicated to exoplanet follow-up was launched in December 2019, equipped with the capacity to perform photometric measurements at the 20 ppm level. As CHEO…
The CHEOPS mission
Willy Benz, Christopher Broeg, Andrea Fortier +107
The CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite (CHEOPS) was selected in 2012, as the first small mission in the ESA Science Programme and successfully launched in December 2019. CHEOPS is…
Constraining the oblateness of transiting planets with photometry and spectroscopy
B. Akinsanmi, S. C. C. Barros, N. C. Santos +2
Rapid planetary rotation can cause the equilibrium shape of a planet to be oblate. While planetary oblateness has mostly been probed by examining the subtle ingress and egress feat…
A precise architecture characterization of the Men planetary system
M. Damasso, A. Sozzetti, C. Lovis +97
The bright star Men was chosen as the first target for a radial velocity follow-up to test the performance of ESPRESSO, the new high-resolution spectrograph at the ESO's Very-L…
Characterization of the K2-38 planetary system. Unraveling one of the densest planets known to date
B. Toledo-Padrón, C. Lovis, A. Suárez Mascareño +90
We characterized the transiting planetary system orbiting the G2V star K2-38 using the new-generation echelle spectrograph ESPRESSO. We carried out a photometric analysis of the av…
Revisiting Proxima with ESPRESSO
A. Suárez Mascareño, J. P. Faria, P. Figueira +88
We aim to confirm the presence of Proxima b using independent measurements obtained with the new ESPRESSO spectrograph, and refine the planetary parameters taking advantage of its…
Discovery and characterization of the exoplanets WASP-148b and c. A transiting system with two interacting giant planets
G. Hebrard, R. F. Diaz, A. C. M. Correia +39
We present the discovery and characterization of WASP-148, a new extrasolar system that includes at least two giant planets. The host star is a slowly rotating inactive late-G dwar…
Can planetary rings explain the extremely low density of HIP 41378f?
B. Akinsanmi, N. C. Santos, J. P. Faria +4
The presence of rings around a transiting planet can cause its radius to be overestimated and lead to an underestimation of its density if the mass is known. We employ a Bayesian f…
Can we detect the stellar differential rotation of WASP-7 through theRossiter-McLaughlin observations?
Luisa Maria Serrano, M. Oshagh, H. M. Cegla +4
The Rossiter-McLaughlin (RM) effect is the radial velocity signal generated when an object transits a rotating star. Stars rotate differentially and this affects the shape and ampl…
Mass determinations of the three mini-Neptunes transiting TOI-125
L. D. Nielsen, D. Gandolfi, D. J. Armstrong +77
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, TESS, is currently carrying out an all-sky search for small planets transiting bright stars. In the first year of the TESS survey, steady…
Improving transit characterisation with Gaussian process modelling of stellar variability
S. C. C. Barros, O. Demangeon, R. F. Díaz +4
New photometric space missions to detect and characterise transiting exoplanets are focusing on bright stars to obtain high cadence, high signal-to-noise light curves. Since these…
