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…
An eclipsing M-dwarf close to the hydrogen burning limit from NGTS
Jack S. Acton, Michael R. Goad, Sarah L. Casewell +20
We present the discovery of NGTS J0930-18, an extreme mass ratio eclipsing M-dwarf binary system with an early M-dwarf primary and a late M-dwarf secondary close to the hydrogen bu…
Complex Modulation of Rapidly Rotating Young M Dwarfs: Adding Pieces to the Puzzle
Maximilian N. Günther, David A. Berardo, Elsa Ducrot +37
New sets of young M dwarfs with complex, sharp-peaked, and strictly periodic photometric modulations have recently been discovered with Kepler/K2 (scallop shells) and TESS (complex…
Global Analysis of the TRAPPIST Ultra-Cool Dwarf Transit Survey
F. Lienhard, D. Queloz, M. Gillon +10
We conducted a global analysis of the TRAPPIST Ultra-Cool Dwarf Transit Survey - a prototype of the SPECULOOS transit search conducted with the TRAPPIST-South robotic telescope in…
NGTS clusters survey -- II. White-light flares from the youngest stars in Orion
James A. G. Jackman, Peter J. Wheatley, Jack S. Acton +18
We present the detection of high energy white-light flares from pre-main sequence stars associated with the Orion complex, observed as part of the Next Generation Transit Survey (N…
NGTS-11 b / TOI-1847 b: A transiting warm Saturn recovered from a TESS single-transit event
Samuel Gill, Peter J. Wheatley, Benjamin F. Cooke +37
We report the discovery of NGTS-11 b (=TOI-1847 b), a transiting Saturn in a 35.46-day orbit around a mid K-type star (Teff=5050 K). We initially identified the system from a singl…
Mon-735: A new low-mass pre-main sequence eclipsing binary in NGC 2264
Edward Gillen, Lynne A. Hillenbrand, John Stauffer +3
We present Mon-735, a detached double-lined eclipsing binary (EB) member of the 3 Myr old NGC 2264 star forming region, detected by Spitzer. We simultaneously model the Spitz…
