A planet’s helium atmosphere streams ahead of its orbit, while infrared observations reveal the hidden rhythms of its star. New work also shows how neutron-star tilt can reshape X-ray light, traces the past of massive blue supergiants, and maps cloudy and clear zones on the hot Jupiter WASP-43 b.

Image: Detailed analysis of WASP-31 b
A new study using the ESPRESSO spectrograph has provided a precise look at the giant exoplanet WASP-31 b. Researchers confirmed that the planet’s orbit is nearly perfectly aligned with its star's rotation. While attempting to scan the planet's atmosphere for chemical elements, the team found that the signal was heavily obscured by distortions caused by the planet passing in front of its star. Although previously suggested elements like potassium were not detected in this specific data set, the s...

Discovery of two warm planets smaller than Saturn orbiting solar-type stars

Image: Discovery of two warm planets smaller than Saturn orbiting solar-type stars
Researchers have discovered two new gas giant planets, TOI-883 b and TOI-899 b, which are similar in mass to a 'light' Saturn. These 'warm' giants orbit stars very much like our own Sun with orbital periods of approximately 10 and 11 days. Despite their similar sizes and environments, the two planets appear to have different internal compositions. This suggests they may have followed different evolutionary paths, providing a unique opportunit...

Image: Chemical traces of a hidden world: Silicon sulfide hints at a protoplanet in the PDS 66 disk
Astronomers using the ALMA telescope have detected rare molecules of silicon sulfide (SiS) in the dusty disk surrounding the young star PDS 66. This chemical signature is highly unusual because these molecules normally freeze onto dust grains in the cold reaches of a planetary system. The detection of a warm, compact source of SiS gas about 60 astronomical units from the star suggests the presence of a 'protoplanet'—a planet still in the proc...

Image: Discovery of NGTS-38 b: A rare warm super-Jupiter with a 180-day orbit
Astronomers have discovered a massive gas giant planet, NGTS-38 b, orbiting a bright, metal-rich star similar to our Sun but slightly hotter. This 'warm super-Jupiter' stands out due to its unusually long orbital period of 180.5 days, which is much longer than most planets discovered by the transit method. Unlike the scorched 'hot Jupiters' that orbit their stars in just a few days, NGTS-38 b maintains a relatively cool equilibrium temperatur...

Image: Using intensity interferometry to double-check the size of Red Clump stars
Scientists are testing a specialized method called intensity interferometry to measure the precise physical dimensions of 'Red Clump' stars, such as HD 17652. These aging stars are vital benchmarks used to calculate distances across the universe, including the gap between us and the Large Magellanic Cloud. By analyzing how light interferes at different wavelengths, researchers can map the stellar surface and account for 'limb darkening'—the e...

Image: Probing the magnetic field of a mysterious neutron star in a massive binary system
Using the NuSTAR space telescope, researchers have performed a deep analysis of the X-ray binary 4U 1700-37, a system where a compact object—likely a neutron star—is pulling material from a massive supergiant star HD 153919. By studying the high-energy light emitted as this material falls toward the object, the team looked for 'cyclotron lines,' which act as a direct probe of a star's magnetic strength. While no rhythmic pulses were found, th...

Image: Mystery of the speeding star: Evidence of a violent stellar merger in Taurus
Astronomers have discovered that the unusual star HP Tau/G2 is likely the result of two stars crashing into each other. This 'walkaway' star is currently speeding away from its birthplace alongside another star, KPNO 15, after a complex gravitational dance in a multiple star system caused them to be ejected 5,600 years ago. HP Tau/G2 exhibits strange characteristics for its age, including an oddly large size, fast rotation, and a flattened shape....

Image: New method unlocks secrets of planets that do not cross in front of their stars
Scientists have developed a new technique called the Variable Planetary Infrared Excess (VPIE) method to study exoplanets that never transit (pass in front of) their host stars. By analyzing how the total light from a star system changes as a planet orbits and shows different phases—much like the Moon's phases—this method can isolate the planet's heat signature without needing a complex model of the star itself. Tests using simulated James We...

Image: Searching for hidden companions within the dusty disks of young stars
Using high-precision data from the Hipparcos and Gaia satellites, researchers have analyzed 11 young star systems surrounded by transition disks to find hidden orbiting bodies. The study successfully detected companions in several systems, including confirmed low-mass stars or sub-stellar objects around HD 142527, AB Aurigae, and MWC 758. In other cases, such as TW Hya and HD 100453, the lack of detection allowed scientists to set strict mass...

Image: Extreme heating and atmospheric secrets of the eccentric giant planet HD 80606 b
Astronomers have peeked into the atmosphere of HD 80606 b, one of the most unusual gas giants known due to its incredibly stretched, eccentric orbit. As the planet swings extremely close to its parent star—reaching a distance of just 0.03 AU, much closer than Mercury is to our Sun—it experiences rapid, intense heating. Using high-resolution spectroscopy from the Keck Observatory, researchers looked for signs of chemical changes during this therma...
