K2-265 b: A Transiting Rocky Super-Earth
K. W. F. Lam, A. Santerne, S. G. Sousa +34
We report the discovery of the super-Earth K2-265 b detected with K2 photometry. The planet orbits a bright (V_mag = 11.1) star of spectral type G8V with a period of 2.37 days. We…
NGTS-4b: A sub-Neptune Transiting in the Desert
Richard G. West, Edward Gillen, Daniel Bayliss +48
We report the discovery of NGTS-4b, a sub-Neptune-sized planet transiting a 13th magnitude K-dwarf in a 1.34d orbit. NGTS-4b has a mass M=M_E and radius R=…
An Earth-sized exoplanet with a Mercury-like composition
A. Santerne, B. Brugger, D. J. Armstrong +43
The Earth, Venus, Mars, and some extrasolar terrestrial planets have a mass and radius that is consistent with a mass fraction of about 30% metallic core and 70% silicate mantle. A…
The XUV environments of exoplanets from Jupiter-size to super-Earth
George W. King, Peter J. Wheatley, Michael Salz +8
Planets that reside close-in to their host star are subject to intense high-energy irradiation. Extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) and X-ray radiation (together, XUV) is thought to drive ma…
