Journal Article
Maxted, P. F. L., Triaud, A. H. M. J., & Martin, D. V. (in press). The EBLM Project—From False Positives to Benchmark Stars and Circumbinary Exoplanets. Universe, 9(12), Article 498. https://doi.org/10.3390/universe9120498

The EBLM project aims to characterise very-low-mass stars that are companions to solar-type stars in eclipsing binaries. We describe the history and motivation for this project, the methodology we use to obtain the precise mass, radius, and effective...

Context. Ultra-short-period planets (USPs) are a unique class of super-Earths with an orbital period of less than a day, and hence they are subject to intense radiation from their host star. These planets cannot retain a primordial H/He atmosphere, a... Read More about CHEOPS and TESS view of the ultra-short-period super-Earth TOI-561 b.
