Current theories of planetary evolution predict that infant giant planets have large radii and very low densities before they slowly contract to reach their final size after about several hundred million years 1,2. These theoretical expectations remain untested so far as the detection and characterization of very young planets is extremely

We report the discovery of TOI-2285b, a sub-Neptune-sized planet transiting a nearby (42 pc) M dwarf with a period of 27.3 d. We identified the transit signal from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite photometric data, which we confirmed with ground-based photometric observations using the multiband imagers MuSCAT2 and MuSCAT3. Combining these

During the survey phase of the Kepler mission, several thousand stars were observed in short cadence, allowing for the detection of solar-like oscillations in more than 500 main-sequence and subgiant stars. These detections showed the power of asteroseismology in determining fundamental stellar parameters. However, the Kepler Science Office

Aims: We describe the first s-process post-processing models for asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars of masses 3, 4, and 5 M ⊙ at solar metallicity (Z = 0.018) computed using the input from the stellar evolutionary code ATON. Methods: The models are computed with the new code SNUPPAT (S-process NUcleosynthesis Post-Processing code for ATON), which

We analyze two high-resolution spectral transit time series of the hot Jupiter HAT-P-32 b obtained with the CARMENES spectrograph. Our new XMM-Newton X-ray observations of the system show that the fast-rotating F-type host star exhibits a high X-ray luminosity of 2.3 × 10 29 erg s −1 (5-100 Å), corresponding to a flux of 6.9 × 10 4 erg cm −2 s −1

Context. We explore the stellar content of the Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey (J-PLUS) Data Release 2 and show its potential for identifying low-metallicity stars using the Stellar Parameters Estimation based on Ensemble Methods (SPEEM) pipeline. Aims: SPEEM is a tool used to provide determinations of atmospheric parameters for stars
