Description
Spectral indices (delta m2100 and delta m1500) for 32 O-type stars with known spectral class and reddening are plotted versus log of effective temperature. The delta m2100 indices are considered to be almost luminosity-independent, while evidence of a well-established relationship between observed spectral indices and empirical temperatures appears. Also graphed are equivalent widths of selected photospheric lines versus temperature. Theoretical line strengths computed with a code that solves the LTE line transfer problem from the model atmosphere input of Kurucz, et al. (1974) indicate that the general behavior of the silicon lines, but not the P V resonance line, appears consistent with the computations.

    3.5 years of observing exoplanet day sides with CHEOPS

    Characterising Exoplanets Satellite (CHEOPS) is the first ESA exoplanet space mission. The satellite carries a 30cm telescope, optimised to deliver exquisite (ppm-level) photometry of bright exoplanetary systems at optical wavelengths. CHEOPS has spent approximately 20% of its observing time during its 3.5-year long nominal mission studying

    Finding Water Worlds with Transit Timing Variations

    Models predict that planets with water-rich compositions may be common around low-mass stars, but definitive evidence for the existence of water worlds has remained elusive. Precise mass and radius measurements for small planets allow us to identify candidate water worlds that have bulk densities too low to be consistent with a rocky composition

    First light and results for atmospheric characterization with The Near Infra-Red Planet Searcher (NIRPS)

    NIRPS is a new fiber-fed high spectral resolution (~80k) spectrograph assisted by adaptive optics installed on the 3.6m telescope of ESO at LaSilla, Chile. Operated simultaneously with HARPS, NIRPS covers the Y, J, and H bands. The commissioning phase demonstrated high stability for time-series observations along precise radial velocities reaching
