Detailed cool star flare morphology with CHEOPS and TESS

G. Bruno, I. Pagano, G. Scandariato +79

Context. White-light stellar flares are proxies for some of the most energetic types of flares, but their triggering mechanism is still poorly understood. As they are associated wi…

The EBLM Project XI. Mass, radius and effective temperature measurements for 23 M-dwarf companions to solar-type stars observed with CHEOPS

M. I. Swayne, P. F. L. Maxted, A. H. M. J. Triaud +104

Observations of low-mass stars have frequently shown a disagreement between observed stellar radii and radii predicted by theoretical stellar structure models. This ``radius inflat…

Optical and near-infrared stellar activity characterization of the early M dwarf Gl~205 with SOPHIE and SPIRou

P. Cortes-Zuleta, I. Boisse, B. Klein +41

The stellar activity of M dwarfs is the main limitation for discovering and characterizing exoplanets orbiting them since it induces quasi-periodic RV variations. We aim to charact…

Connecting photometric and spectroscopic granulation signals with CHEOPS and ESPRESSO

S. Sulis, M. Lendl, H. Cegla +83

Stellar granulation generates fluctuations in photometric and spectroscopic data whose properties depend on the stellar type, composition, and evolutionary state. In this study, we…

The EBLM project -- IX. Five fully convective M-dwarfs, precisely measured with CHEOPS and TESS light curves

D. Sebastian, M. I. Swayne, P. F. L. Maxted +85

Eclipsing binaries are important benchmark objects to test and calibrate stellar structure and evolution models. This is especially true for binaries with a fully convective M-dwar…

Fundamental effective temperature measurements for eclipsing binary stars -- III. SPIRou near-infrared spectroscopy and CHEOPS photometry of the benchmark G0V star EBLM J0113+31

P. F. L. Maxted, N. J. Miller, S. Hoyer +74

EBLM J0113+31 is moderately bright (V=10.1), metal-poor ([Fe/H]) G0V star with a much fainter M dwarf companion on a wide, eccentric orbit (=14.3 d). We have used near…

The EBLM project -- VIII. First results for M-dwarf mass, radius and effective temperature measurements using CHEOPS light curves

M. I. Swayne, P. F. L. Maxted, A. H. M. J. Triaud +93

The accuracy of theoretical mass, radius and effective temperature values for M-dwarf stars is an active topic of debate. Differences between observed and theoretical values have r…

Discovery of a young low-mass brown dwarf transiting a fast-rotating F-type star by the Galactic Plane eXoplanet (GPX) survey

P. Benni, A. Y. Burdanov, V. V. Krushinsky +64

We announce the discovery of GPX-1 b, a transiting brown dwarf with a mass of and a radius of , the first sub-stell…

The detection and characterisation of 54 massive companions with the SOPHIE spectrograph -- 7 new brown dwarfs and constraints on the BD desert

F. Kiefer, G. Hébrard, J. Sahlmann +35

Brown-dwarfs are substellar objects with masses intermediate between planets and stars within about 13-80Mjup. While isolated BDs are most likely produced by gravitational collapse…

The SOPHIE search for northern extrasolar planets VIII. Follow-up of ELODIE candidates: long-period brown-dwarf companions

F. Bouchy, D. Ségransan, R. F. Díaz +29

Long-period brown dwarf companions detected in radial velocity surveys are important targets for direct imaging and astrometry to calibrate the mass-luminosity relation of substell…
