An Ultra-Hot Neptune in the Neptune desert
James S. Jenkins, Matías R. Díaz, Nicolás T. Kurtovic +81
About one out of 200 Sun-like stars has a planet with an orbital period shorter than one day: an ultra-short-period planet (Sanchis-ojeda et al. 2014; Winn et al. 2018). All of the…
NGTS-12b: A sub-Saturn mass transiting exoplanet in a 7.53 day orbit
Edward M. Bryant, Daniel Bayliss, Louise D. Nielsen +35
We report the discovery of the transiting exoplanet NGTS-12b by the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS). The host star, NGTS-12, is a V=12.38 mag star with an effective temperatu…
Simultaneous TESS and NGTS Transit Observations of WASP-166b
Edward M. Bryant, Daniel Bayliss, James McCormac +21
We observed a transit of WASP-166 b using nine NGTS telescopes simultaneously with TESS observations of the same transit. We achieved a photometric precision of 152 ppm per 30 minu…
A remnant planetary core in the hot-Neptune desert
David J. Armstrong, Théo A. Lopez, Vardan Adibekyan +91
The interiors of giant planets remain poorly understood. Even for the planets in the Solar System, difficulties in observation lead to large uncertainties in the properties of plan…
Three Short Period Jupiters from TESS
L. D. Nielsen, R. Brahm, F. Bouchy +74
We report the confirmation and mass determination of three hot Jupiters discovered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission: HIP 65Ab (TOI-129, TIC-201248411) is…
Shallow transit follow-up from NGTS: simultaneous observations of HD106315 with 11 identical telescopes
Alexis M. S. Smith, Philipp Eigmüller, Ramanathan Gurumoorthy +15
The Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS) is a photometric survey for transiting exoplanets, consisting of twelve identical 0.2-m telescopes. We report a measurement of the transit…
