Image: Two low density giant planets found orbiting the star TOI-791
Two giant planets, TOI-791 b and TOI-791 c, have been confirmed orbiting the F7-type star TOI-791. Both planets are similar in size to Jupiter, but they possess exceptionally low densities. They follow long-period orbits, taking approximately 139 days and 232 days respectively to complete a revolution around their host star. The planets are locked in a orbital relationship known as a 5:3 resonance, which causes detectable timing shifts as they pass in front of their star. The planets were obs...

Image: High-resolution observations reveal reflected light from ultra-hot exo-Neptune LTT 9779 b
The ultra-hot Neptune-mass planet LTT 9779 b has been studied through the detection of its reflected starlight. Because planets are much fainter than their host stars, capturing the light they reflect is a significant technical challenge. By observing the system at high spectral resolution, investigators were able to isolate the faint signal of light bouncing off the planet, providing new information about its atmosphere. The findings were gat...

Image: Compact planetary system TOI-1533 hosts two unique super-Neptune planets
The planetary system TOI-1533 consists of two planets orbiting an active orange dwarf star. Located in a compact arrangement, this system features an inner sub-Neptune planet and an outer, larger hot giant planet. Such systems, where a large gas-rich planet is accompanied by a smaller companion, are rare and provide insight into how planetary systems migrate and evolve over time. The research reveals that both planets transit, or pass in front...

Image: Atmospheric composition of temperate exo-Neptune TOI-1231 b revealed by JWST
The temperate exo-Neptune TOI-1231 b serves as a vital benchmark for understanding planets smaller than Neptune. Because of its density, the planet is known to possess a deep, hydrogen-rich atmosphere. This study provides the first near-infrared transmission spectrum—a technique that analyzes how starlight filters through a planet's atmosphere—to determine its chemical makeup, offering a reference for similar worlds. Researchers identified a s...

Image: Orbital architecture and spin-orbit alignment of the TOI-2134 planetary system
The TOI-2134 planetary system contains two confirmed planets orbiting their host star. The inner planet is a mini-Neptune, a gas-rich world smaller than Neptune, while the outer planet is a temperate sub-Saturn. By combining new observations from the TESS space telescope with extensive ground-based velocity measurements, the composition and orbital paths of these planets have been precisely determined, revealing a complex system architecture. ...

Image: Observations of PDS 70 reveal new dust clumps and potential third planet
The young star PDS 70 is known to host two confirmed protoplanets within its disk of gas and dust. Recent observations have identified two elongated dust features near the star, which may indicate the presence of a previously unknown third planet or complex structures within the inner disk. These features share the same orbit, with one leading the other by approximately 120 degrees, suggesting they could be dust trapped by the gravity of an unsee...

Image: Orbital analysis of Kepler-451 reveals evidence for a circumbinary planet
Kepler-451 is a binary star system hosting a planet that orbits both stars, known as a circumbinary planet. By analyzing the timing of eclipses between the two stars from 2004 to 2024, the study investigated variations in the orbital period. These variations, which appear as shifts in the expected timing of eclipses, provide clues about gravitational influences from additional objects in the system or internal changes within the stars themselves....

Image: Stellar passage of HD 7977 likely triggered a comet shower in our solar system
Long-period comets, which take thousands of years to orbit the Sun, are traditionally thought to be nudged toward the inner solar system by the gravitational pull of the Milky Way's disk. New evidence suggests that the star HD 7977 may have passed close to our solar system 2.5 million years ago, creating a "comet shower" that continues to influence the number of comets we observe today. The research compared computer simulations of long-period...

Image: Glossy silicate clouds discovered on the dayside of ultra-hot planet LTT 9779 b
LTT 9779 b is an ultra-hot Neptune-sized planet orbiting in a region of space known as the Neptunian desert, where such worlds are typically not found. Recent observations have provided the first clear evidence of clouds on the dayside of this planet. These clouds, made of silicate—a common mineral found in rocks—act as a highly reflective layer, explaining why the planet appears so bright when viewed from space. The analysis confirms that the...

Image: New model measures global atmospheric wind speeds on the planet WASP-76 b
Atmospheric circulation on ultra-hot Jupiters—massive gas planets that orbit very close to their host stars—can be studied by observing how light emitted by the planet shifts in frequency. A new computational method has been developed to translate these subtle light shifts into precise measurements of wind speeds across the planet’s surface. This approach provides a clearer picture of how gases move on extreme worlds like WASP-76b. To test thi...
