NGTS-8b and NGTS-9b: two non-inflated hot-Jupiters
Jean C. Costes, Christopher A. Watson, Claudia Belardi +35
We report the discovery, by the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS), of two hot-Jupiters NGTS-8b and NGTS-9b. These orbit a V = 13.68 K0V star (Teff = 5241 +/- 50 K) with a perio…
NGTS-10b: The shortest period hot Jupiter yet discovered
James McCormac, Edward Gillen, James A. G. Jackman +44
We report the discovery of a new ultra-short period transiting hot Jupiter from the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS). NGTS-10b has a mass and radius of $2.162\,^{+0.092}_{-0.1…
ESA Voyage 2050 White Paper: Detecting life outside our solar system with a large high-contrast-imaging mission
Ignas Snellen, Simon Albrecht, Guillem Anglada-Escude +64
In this white paper, we recommend the European Space Agency plays a proactive role in developing a global collaborative effort to construct a large high-contrast imaging space tele…
Atmospheric characterization of terrestrial exoplanets in the mid-infrared: biosignatures, habitability & diversity
Sascha P. Quanz, Olivier Absil, Daniel Angerhausen +45
Exoplanet science is one of the most thriving fields of modern astrophysics. A major goal is the atmospheric characterization of dozens of small, terrestrial exoplanets in order to…
WASP-South hot Jupiters: WASP-178b, WASP-184b, WASP-185b & WASP-192b
C. Hellier, D. R. Anderson, K. Barkaoui +19
We report on four new transiting hot Jupiters discovered by the WASP-South survey. WASP-178b transits a V = 9.9, A1V star with Teff = 9350 +/- 150 K, the second-hottest transit hos…
Ground-based follow-up observations of TRAPPIST-1 transits in the near-infrared
A. Y. Burdanov, S. M. Lederer, M. Gillon +10
The TRAPPIST-1 planetary system is a favorable target for the atmospheric characterization of temperate earth-sized exoplanets by means of transmission spectroscopy with the forthc…
NGTS-5b: a highly inflated planet offering insights into the sub-Jovian desert
Philipp Eigmüller, Alexander Chaushev, Edward Gillen +32
Context: Planetary population analysis gives us insight into formation and evolution processes. For short-period planets, the subJovian desert has been discussed in recent years wi…
The CORALIE survey for southern extrasolar planets XVIII. Three new massive planets and two low mass brown dwarfs at separation larger than 5 AU
E. L. Rickman, D. Ségransan, M. Marmier +36
Context. Since 1998, a planet-search around main sequence stars within 50~pc in the southern hemisphere has been carried out with the CORALIE spectrograph at La Silla Observatory.…
WASP-169, WASP-171, WASP-175 and WASP-182: three hot Jupiters and one bloated sub-Saturn mass planet discovered by WASP-south
L. D. Nielsen, F. Bouchy, O. D. Turner +21
We present the discovery of four new giant planets from \WASP, three hot Jupiters and one bloated sub-Saturn mass planet; WASP-169b, WASP-171b, WASP-175b and WASP-182b. Besides the…
NGTS-6b: An Ultra Short Period Hot-Jupiter Orbiting an Old K Dwarf
Jose I. Vines, James S. Jenkins, Jack S. Acton +37
We report the discovery of a new ultra-short period hot Jupiter from the Next Generation Transit Survey. NGTS-6b orbits its star with a period of 21.17~h, and has a mass and radius…
Three Hot-Jupiters on the upper edge of the mass-radius distribution: WASP-177, WASP-181 and WASP-183
Oliver D. Turner, D. R. Anderson, K. Barkaoui +21
We present the discovery of 3 transiting planets from the WASP survey, two hot-Jupiters: WASP-177b (~0.5 M_Jup, ~1.6 R_Jup) in a 3.07-d orbit of a V = 12.6 K2 star, WASP-183b (~0.5…
WASP-180Ab: Doppler tomography of an hot Jupiter orbiting the primary star in a visual binary
L. Y. Temple, C. Hellier, D. R. Anderson +26
We report the discovery and characterisation of WASP-180Ab, a hot Jupiter confirmed by the detection of its Doppler shadow and by measuring its mass using radial velocities. We fin…
