Estrellas | ExoplaneResearchers combined space-based K2 and TESS photometry with high-resolution HERMES spectroscopy to study four bright stars: HD 73135, BD +19° 2045, BD +19° 2046, and TYC 1395-855-1. Their analysis clarified the stars’ variability, chemical properties, and evolutionary status. HD 73135 shows a persistent modulation near 1.5 days, likely due to rotation, but an ellipsoidal-binary scenario is also possible. BD +19° 2045 is identified as a new candidate γ Doradus g-mode pulsator, while BD +19° 2046...

31. 5. 2026Estrellas | ExoplaneResearchers have upgraded the Exo-REM atmospheric model to better simulate the complex, patchy clouds found in brown dwarfs and exoplanets. The new Exo-REM k26 grids include a cloud sedimentation parameter, improved molecular opacities, and stricter convergence criteria, allowing for more accurate modeling of objects with heterogeneous cloud cover. Applying this model to VHS 1256 b, a variable brown dwarf, the team found that a two-column approac...

They found evidence for a close-in, non-transiting planet with a mass of about 7.3 Earth masses and a radius of 2.43 Earth radii, placing it in the so-called Neptunian desert—a region where such planets are rare. The planet likely has a water-rich composition and may have lost its original hydrogen/helium envelope or developed a metal-rich ...

Using new ALMA observations, researchers mapped a wide range of molecules and found that emissions from H₂CO, CN, and C₂H are concentrated in spiral-like features in the southern disk, opposite the dust trap. These features are not linked to the disk’s shadows but are likely caused by late infall of carbon-rich material, which boosts the local carbon...

Researchers observed back-to-back transits of both planets, AU Mic b and c, using multiple telescopes and measured their spin-orbit alignment with the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect. They confirmed that planet b’s orbit is well aligned with the star’s rotation, while planet c’s orbit is likely aligned but a polar orbit cannot be ruled out due to data limitations.

Researchers used N-body simulations to study the system’s history and found that its current architecture can be reproduced if the system originally hosted additional massive planets that were later ejected through planet-planet scattering. The mass of the ejected planet help...

Of particular interest is HD 20794 d, a terrestrial planet with a minimum mass of 5.82 Earth masses on a highly eccentric orbit that passes through the star’s habitable zone (HZ). The research calculates the HZ boundaries and determines how much time planet d spends within these limits. ...

Using simulations, they found that all three planets’ internal heat is mainly generated by radioactive decay and tidal forces. TRAPPIST-1f and g are likely to have thin outer ice shells and shallow subsurface oceans, while TRAPPIST-1h may have a thicker ic...
Read article 27. 5. 2026Estrellas | ExoplaneResearchers observed the protoplanetary disk around the young star AB Aurigae using near-infrared polarized imaging and H-alpha observations over several years. Their study reveals that while most of the disk follows Keplerian rotation, the inner regions (within about 60 astronomical units) show significant deviations, including sub-Keplerian motion. Two bright spiral arms inside the disk’s millimeter cavity display different dynamic behaviors, p...
Read article 27. 5. 2026Estrellas | ExoplaneWASP-156 b is a short-period exo-Neptune, a planet similar in size to Neptune but much closer to its star. Scientists studied the planet’s orbit using new high-precision spectroscopic and photometric observations. They measured the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect, which reveals the angle between the planet’s orbit and the star’s rotation. The results show that WASP-156 b’s orbit is well aligned with the star’s equator, with a projected obliquity of ab...
