Hidden Gems in TESS: sherlock finds two new rocky planets around nearby M dwarfs
M. Timmermans, M. Dévora-Pajares, F. J. Pozuelos +25
The Hidden Gems project searches the TESS data for additional planets transiting low-mass stars in confirmed systems. Our goal is to identify planet candidates that are below the d…
ExoClock Project IV: A homogeneous catalogue of 620 updated exoplanet ephemerides
A. Kokori, A. Tsiaras, G. Pantelidou +323
The ExoClock project is an open platform aiming to monitor exoplanets by integrating observations from space and ground based telescopes. This study presents an updated catalogue o…
Fundamental effective temperature measurements for eclipsing binary stars -- VI. Improved methodology and application to the circumbinary planet host star BEBOP-3
P. F. L. Maxted, N. J. Miller, T. A. Baycroft +3
BEBOP-3 is detached eclipsing binary star that shows total eclipses of a faint M~dwarf every 13.2 days by a 9-magnitude F9V star. High precision radial velocity measurem…
MANGOS II: Five new giant planets orbiting low-mass stars
G. Dransfield, M. Timmermans, D. Sebastian +47
Giant planets orbiting low-mass stars on short orbits present a conundrum, as in the most extreme cases their existence cannot be reconciled with current models of core accretion.…
The EBLM project -- XIV. TESS light curves for eclipsing binaries with very low mass companions
Jay Fitzpatrick, Pierre F. L. Maxted, Alix V. Freckelton +3
Accurate limb-darkening models are needed for accurate characterisation of eclipsing binary stars and transiting exoplanets from the analysis of their light curves. The limb-darken…
