A new dynamical modeling of the WASP-47 system with CHEOPS observations
V. Nascimbeni, L. Borsato, T. Zingales +80
Among the hundreds of known hot Jupiters (HJs), only five have been found to have companions on short-period orbits. Within this rare class of multiple planetary systems, the archi…
TOI-1055 b: Neptunian planet characterised with HARPS, TESS, and CHEOPS
A. Bonfanti, D. Gandolfi, J. A. Egger +89
TOI-1055 is a Sun-like star known to host a transiting Neptune-sized planet on a 17.5-day orbit (TOI-1055 b). Radial velocity (RV) analyses carried out by two independent groups us…
Hint of an exocomet transit in the CHEOPS lightcurve of HD 172555
F. Kiefer, V. Van Grootel, A. Lecavelier des Etangs +72
HD172555 is a young (20Myr) A7V star surrounded by a 10au wide debris disk suspected to be replenished partly by collisions between large planetesimals. Small eva…
Characterization of the HD 108236 system with CHEOPS and TESS. Confirmation of a fifth transiting planet
S. Hoyer, A. Bonfanti, A. Leleu +87
The HD108236 system was first announced with the detection of four small planets based on TESS data. Shortly after, the transit of an additional planet with a period of 29.54d was…
CHEOPS finds KELT-1b darker than expected in visible light: Discrepancy between the CHEOPS and TESS eclipse depths
H. Parviainen, T. G. Wilson, M. Lendl +78
Recent TESS-based studies have suggested that the dayside of KELT-1b, a strongly-irradiated brown dwarf, is significantly brighter in visible light than what would be expected base…
TEMPus VoLA: the Timed Epstein Multi-pressure Vessel at Low Accelerations
Holly L. Capelo, Jonas Kühn, Antoine Pommerol +12
The field of planetary system formation relies extensively on our understanding of the aerodynamic interaction between gas and dust in protoplanetary disks. Of particular importanc…
A stellar occultation by the transneptunian object (50000) Quaoar observed by CHEOPS
B. E. Morgado, G. Bruno, A. R. Gomes-Júnior +82
Stellar occultation is a powerful technique that allows the determination of some physical parameters of the occulting object. The result depends on the photometric accuracy, the t…
Uncovering the true periods of the young sub-Neptunes orbiting TOI-2076
Hugh P. Osborn, Andrea Bonfanti, Davide Gandolfi +93
Context: TOI-2076 is a transiting three-planet system of sub-Neptunes orbiting a bright (G = 8.9 mag), young ( Myr) K-type star. Although a validated planetary system, th…
The changing face of AU Mic b: stellar spots, spin-orbit commensurability, and Transit Timing Variations as seen by CHEOPS and TESS
Gy. M. Szabó, D. Gandolfi, A. Brandeker +78
AU Mic is a young planetary system with a resolved debris disc showing signs of planet formation and two transiting warm Neptunes near mean-motion resonances. Here we analyse three…
CHEOPS observations of the HD 108236 planetary system: A fifth planet, improved ephemerides, and planetary radii
A. Bonfanti, L. Delrez, M. J. Hooton +106
The detection of a super-Earth and three mini-Neptunes transiting the bright ( = 9.2 mag) star HD 108236 (also known as TOI-1233) was recently reported on the basis of TESS and…
The hot dayside and asymmetric transit of WASP-189b seen by CHEOPS
M. Lendl, Sz. Csizmadia, A. Deline +102
The CHEOPS space mission dedicated to exoplanet follow-up was launched in December 2019, equipped with the capacity to perform photometric measurements at the 20 ppm level. As CHEO…
The CHEOPS mission
Willy Benz, Christopher Broeg, Andrea Fortier +107
The CHaracterising ExOPlanet Satellite (CHEOPS) was selected in 2012, as the first small mission in the ESA Science Programme and successfully launched in December 2019. CHEOPS is…
SUPERSHARP - Segmented Unfolding Primary for Exoplanet Research via Spectroscopic High Angular Resolution Photography
Ian Parry, Didier Queloz, Grant Kennedy +20
We propose to search for biosignatures in the spectra of reflected light from about 100 Earth-sized planets that are already known to be orbiting in their habitable zones (HZ). For…
An Impacting Descent Probe for Europa and the other Galilean Moons of Jupiter
P. Wurz, D. Lasi, N. Thomas +10
We present a study of an impacting descent probe that increases the science return of spacecraft orbiting or passing an atmosphere-less planetary body of the solar system, such as…
Developing Engineering Model Cobra fiber positioners for the Subaru Telescope Prime Focus Spectrometer
Charles Fisher, Chaz Morantz, David Braun +19
The Cobra fiber positioner is being developed by the California Institute of Technology (CIT) and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) for the Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) instrum…
