The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs-Different roads to radii and masses of the target stars

A Schweitzer, VM Passegger, C Cifuentes… - Astronomy & …, 2019 - aanda.org
Aims. We determine the radii and masses of 293 nearby, bright M dwarfs of the CARMENES
survey. This is the first time that such a large and homogeneous high-resolution (R> 80 000) …

Wōtan: Comprehensive time-series detrending in Python

M Hippke, TJ David, GD Mulders… - The Astronomical …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
The detection of transiting exoplanets in time-series photometry requires the removal or
modeling of instrumental and stellar noise. While instrumental systematics can be reduced …

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME): a planet in the 45 Myr Tucana–Horologium association

ER Newton, AW Mann, BM Tofflemire… - The Astrophysical …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
Young exoplanets are snapshots of the planetary evolution process. Planets that orbit stars
in young associations are particularly important because the age of the planetary system is …

Investigating the young AU Mic system with SPIRou: large-scale stellar magnetic field and close-in planet mass

B Klein, JF Donati, C Moutou, X Delfosse… - Monthly Notices of …, 2021 - academic.oup.com
We present a velocimetric and spectropolarimetric analysis of 27 observations of the 22-Myr

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME). VI. An 11 Myr giant planet transiting a very-low-mass star in Lower Centaurus Crux

AW Mann, ML Wood, SP Schmidt… - The Astronomical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Mature super-Earths and sub-Neptunes are predicted to be≃ Jovian radius when younger
than 10 Myr. Thus, we expect to find 5–15 R⊕ planets around young stars even if their older …

275 candidates and 149 validated planets orbiting bright stars in K2 campaigns 0–10

AW Mayo, A Vanderburg, DW Latham… - The Astronomical …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract Since 2014, NASA's K2 mission has observed large portions of the ecliptic plane in
search of transiting planets and has detected hundreds of planet candidates. With …

Planetary population synthesis

C Mordasini - arXiv preprint arXiv:1804.01532, 2018 - arxiv.org
In stellar astrophysics, the technique of population synthesis has been successfully used for
several decades. For planets, it is in contrast still a young method which only became …

One year of AU Mic with HARPS–II. Stellar activity and star–planet interaction

B Klein, N Zicher, RD Kavanagh… - Monthly Notices of …, 2022 - academic.oup.com
We present a spectroscopic analysis of a 1-yr intensive monitoring campaign of the 22-Myr
old planet-hosting M dwarf AU Mic using the HARPS spectrograph. In a companion paper …

N Zicher, O Barragán, B Klein, S Aigrain… - Monthly Notices of …, 2022 - academic.oup.com
The system of two transiting Neptune-sized planets around the bright, young M-dwarf AU
Mic provides a unique opportunity to test models of planet formation, early evolution, and …

TESS hunt for young and maturing exoplanets (THYME). II. A 17 Myr old transiting hot Jupiter in the Sco-cen association

AC Rizzuto, ER Newton, AW Mann… - The Astronomical …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
We present the discovery of a transiting hot Jupiter orbiting HIP 67522 (T eff∼ 5650 K; M*∼
1.2M⊙) in the 10–20 Myr old Sco-Cen OB association. We identified the transits in the TESS …
