Measuring the tidal deformation of the planet allows us to estimate the second-degree fluid Love number and gain insight into the planet's internal structure. Moreover measuring the tidal decay timescale allows us to estimate the stellar tidal quality factor which is key to constraining stellar physics. Therefore studying tidal effects in ultra-short orbital period planets gives us a wealth of information on planet-to-star tidal interactions that shape planetary systems. We also propose to estimate the tidal decay of a few hot-Jupiters for which we expect a measurable orbital period decrease within the next 3 years. The longer baseline allowed by the CHEOPS extension will be crucial for our ability to measure the tidal decay of some systems. During the CHEOPS nominal mission we achieved a breakthrough on the direct detection of the tidal deformation of exoplanets. Building on these results we also propose to better constrain the tidal deformation of WASP-103b and WASP-12b directly from the transit deformation signature (similar to  Barros et al. 2022) and also from the signature in the phase curve (similar to Akinsanmi et al. in prep.).

We propose to use CHEOPS to observe a benchmark multi-planetary system (TOI-5126) around a young F star. The system hosts a Neptune sized planet with a 5.46 day orbital period (TOI-5126.01) and a sub-Neptune on a 17.9 day orbit (TOI-5126.02). Further there are potential Transit Timing Variations (TTVs) exhibited in the TESS data at the 5-minute level. We will use CHEOPS to validate the candidate TTV signals of TOI-5126.01 as well as put mass constraints on the planet. These observations are essential for the confirmation of the planetary nature of the TOI-5126 system enabling future atmospheric characterization and density measurements.    [truncated!

Centrifugal forces due to rapid planetary rotation lead to an equatorial bulge referred to as oblateness. Saturn has the largest oblateness within the Solar system owing to its fast rotation and low density. Therefore measuring the oblateness can provide information about the rotation rate of a planet and its interior structure which can in turn provide insight into the dynamical history of the planet. This program will leverage the precision of CHEOPS to probe for large oblateness indicative of super-rapid rotation rate in selected planets around bright stars.    [truncated!

One specific type of such candidates are Duotransits - candidates with two transits separated by a large gap (as is the case for around 400 TESS candidates observing in the primary and extended missions). Here Cheops is perfectly placed to recover the periods of such long period planets by observing potential period aliases. In this program we propose to use this method to recover the periods of super-Earths  and  Neptunes around bright stars with Cheops.    [truncated! Please see actual data for full text]

However the vast majority of such planets have short (P<20d) orbital periods. This is because long-period transiting planets do not produce consecutive transits in photometric survey data. However these planets are some of the most interesting as unlike their interior companions they are less affected by the gravitational and electromagnetic effects of their host stars. This programme will use CHEOPS to efficiently detect characterisable small transiting planets on long orbital periods. We will do this by leveraging as much external information as possible to constrain orbital periods - from nonconsecutive transits (i.e. mono- duo- or trio-transit candidates) in photometric survey data such as K2 or TESS and from radial velocities where available. Such techniques have been successful in the CHEOPS nominal mission with for example the photometrically-constrained TOI-2076 c  and  d (Osborn et al 2022) or the monotransit+RV case of TOI-561 d  and  e (Lacedelli et al 2021  and  2022). These planets once found by CHEOPS may also form interesting science targets for other parts of the GTO extended mission science case such as studying the architectural diversity of exoplanetary systems and even searches for exomoon  and  rings.

Transit Timing Variations suggest that an additional resonant planet is likely present in the system. The rotation period of the star and the orbital period of AU Mic b are in a 7:4 spin-orbit commensurability. We also foundThere are systematic variations in the transit depth that correlate with the star's brightness strongly hampering the accuracy on the planetary radii. AU Mic displays differential rotation making it the youngest ``red'' star known to feature equator-to-pole spot migration.  AU Mic is a ``young goldmine'' for planetary and stellar physics a treasure chest just waiting to be opened. Thanks to its short-cadence space-born photometry CHEOPS is uniquely well suited to seize this opportunity. We propose to carry out an intensive CHEOPS observing campaign of AU Mic.    [truncated!

Their large radii coupled with the high S/N ratio achievable thanks to their extended atmospheres makes them the perfect target for current observational facilities. In this restricted pool of planets WASP-17b is an ideal case study. With an equilibrium temperature of ~1800 K this inflated hot-Jupiter is expected to display signatures of metal oxides and hydrides in absorption. However recent studies showed that the host star a F6 dwarf appears to be considerably more active than expected. The ability of stellar spots and faculae to mimic absorption features in a planetary atmosphere or hide them altogether is one of the most serious obstacles in exoplanet transmission studies. The high-precision photometer aboard CHEOPS is the optimal instrument to monitor the transit of WASP-17b for two main reasons. Being centred at 0.6 µm the CHEOPS photometer targets specifically the wavelengths where the stellar spectrum peaks and where optical absorbers display strong absorption features. Hence CHEOPS data is essential to solve the ongoing disputes on this planetary system regarding the activity of the host star and the presence of refractory elements in the atmosphere of the companion planet. At least 11 transits with a very high coverage (>65%) are expected to occur during AO-3 making WASP-17 b an excellent target for CHEOPS.  </ul [truncated! Please see actual data for full text]

This object is a terrestrial-size exoplanet with three transits each separated by 718 days (two in TESS one in CHEOPS). This even separation and minimal phase coverage means that the period still needs to be determined. Based on the transit duration and a priori likelihood of transit the true period is very unlikely to be 718 days and instead is more likely to be an alias of that spacing in the 34-60 day range. This planet is therefore a likely-terrestrial planet candidate in its star’s optimistic habitable zone (OHZ). It has potential for future mass measurement and even transmission spectroscopy thanks to its bright (for an M star) host. In fact no other OHZ terrestrial has a host star as bright as TOI4353.01. Because of the rarity of terrestrial OHZ exoplanets and the difficulty of discovering more with TESS due to its short sectors followup of candidates like this one is of critical importance.
