"A planet orbiting not just a binary, but a binary brown dwarf, as well as being on a polar orbit, is rather incredible and ...

Using the radial velocity method, an international team of astronomers has discovered a new extrasolar planet orbiting a ...

TOI-1453: Sub-Neptune in System of Two Exoplanets Mar. 14, 2025 — Astronomers have discovered two exoplanets around TOI-1453, a star about 250 light years away. These two exoplanets, a super ...

"We can see, for the first time, rings of dust surrounding protoplanets made visible by the bright starlight reflecting off of them." ...

A new study modeled the chemistry of TOI-270 d, an exoplanet between Earth and Neptune in size, finding evidence that it could be a giant rocky planet shrouded in a thick, hot atmosphere. TOI-270 d is ...

Scientists are using an array of instruments to detect other planets, some of which may harbor life—and others that most ...

But finding such extrasolar planets, or exoplanets, is not easy — even when they're relatively close by. In fact, it takes more than four years for light to travel from the nearest star to our ...

An exoplanet—also called an extrasolar planet—is a planet outside a solar system that orbits another star. With direct imaging, astronomers can see an exoplanet’s light in a telescope and study its ...

Astronomical observatories on the lunar surface and in cis-lunar space will be amongst the most sensitive probes for learning about the habitability on Earth-like exoplanets. Can we find another ...

We are international leaders in analysing extrasolar planetary data obtained with space telescopes. We are developing a holistic modelling approach for different planets and exoplanets that ...

The discovery of a small protoplanetary disk has implications for the commonality of a particular kind of extrasolar planet, or "exoplanet," called a super-Earth. These are rocky worlds that are ...
