The Hot Neptune Initiative (HONEI) II. TOI-5795 b: A hot super-Neptune orbiting a metal-poor star

F. Manni, L. Naponiello, L. Mancini +31

The formation of Neptune planets with orbital periods less than 10\,days remains uncertain. They might have developed similarly to longer-period counterparts, emerged from rare col…

An Eccentric Sub-Neptune Moving Into the Evaporation Desert

Sydney Jenkins, Andrew Vanderburg, Ritika Sethi +31

Though missions such as Kepler, K2, and TESS have discovered 2,000 sub-Neptune and Neptunian planets, there is a dearth of such planets at close-in (P3 days) orbits. T…

Three Hot Jupiters transiting K-dwarfs with a significant heavy element mass

Y. G. C. Frensch, F. Bouchy, G. Lo Curto +50

Albeit at a lower frequency than around hotter stars, short-period gas giants around low-mass stars ( K) do exist, despite predictions from planetary populat…

The Hot-Neptune Initiative (HONEI) I. Two hot sub-Neptunes on a close-in, eccentric orbit (TOI-5800 b) and a farther-out, circular orbit (TOI-5817 b)

L. Naponiello, S. Vissapragada, A. S. Bonomo +37

Neptune-sized exoplanets are key targets for atmospheric studies, yet their formation and evolution remain poorly understood due to their diverse characteristics and limited sample…
