Direct discovery of the inner exoplanet in the HD206893 system. Evidence for deuterium burning in a planetary mass companion [PDF]
Long term precise radial velocity (RV) monitoring of the nearby star HD206893, as well as anomalies in the system proper motion, have suggested the presence of an additional, inner companion in the system.

VaTEST. II. Statistical Validation of 11 TESS-detected Exoplanets Orbiting K-type Stars
NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is an all-sky survey mission designed to find transiting exoplanets orbiting nearby bright stars. It has identified more than 329 transiting exoplanets, and almost 6000 candidates remain unvalidated. In

Exoplanet Characterization using Conditional Invertible Neural Networks [PDF]
The characterization of an exoplanet's interior is an inverse problem, which requires statistical methods such as Bayesian inference in order to be solved. Current methods employ Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling to infer the posterior probability

Mission Design of an Aperture-Synthetic Interferometer System for Space-Based Exoplanet Exploration
In recent years, exoplanet detection has become the technological frontier in the field of astronomy, because it provides evidence of the origin of life and the future human habitable exoplanet.

A simple analysis of earthlike exoplanets [PDF]
The astrobiology is an interdisciplinary science, combining the methods and the means of physics, biology, chemistry and astronomy. Its main purpose is to find out if the exoplanets are habitable and if so, to confirm life on them. The basic conditions for habitability are the essential ones, like these on the Earth.

Aerosol Composition of Hot Giant Exoplanets Dominated by Silicates and Hydrocarbon Hazes [PDF]
Aerosols are common in the atmospheres of exoplanets across a wide swath of temperatures, masses, and ages. These aerosols strongly impact observations of transmitted, reflected, and emitted light from exoplanets, obfuscating our understanding of exoplanet thermal structure and composition.
