An international team including UNIGE and @IAstroPT has discovered that iron winds are blowing across the planet WASP-76 b. #UNIGE #exoplanete #astronomy #research #science ow.ly/h1ej50Telpv

Previously thought to be negligible, the Sun’s ☀️magnetic activity is influencing the determination of its seismic age, as shown by a study published by an international team led by Jérôme Bétrisey, Postdoctoral Researcher at @sciences_UNIGE. 👉unige.ch/medias/%21draf… #astronomy

🎖️Le 25 juillet, le professeur Stéphane Udry, ancien directeur du Département d’astronomie de la @sciences_UNIGE et actuel co-directeur du Pôle de Recherche National PlanetS a reçu le grade de docteur en sciences, honoris causa, de @uniofwarwick. Le prix distingue son travail de pionnier dans le domaine de la recherche sur les exoplanètes 🪐. #prix #exoplanète #astronomie #UNIGE

.@ESO is endorsing a new #spectrograph for its future giant telescope. Switzerland 🇨🇭 is contributing thanks to its expertise in #exoplanets and in high-precision instruments. 👉unige.ch/medias/en/ande… With @sciences_UNIGE @obsge @unibern @NCCRPlanetS

A team from @unige_and @CNRS has simulated the entire runaway #greenhouse effect, which can make a #planet completely unhabitable. On #Earth, a global average temperature rise of just a few tens of degrees would be sufficient to initiate this phenomenon. ow.ly/APvX50QjALm

Grâce aux télescopes spatiaux @ESA_CHEOPS et @NASA_ TESS, une équipe internationale incluant l'@UNIGEnews , l'@unibern et @NCCRPlanetS a découvert six #planètes en orbite autour de leur #étoile en rythme harmonique. @obsge @esa @NASA @SBFI_CH ow.ly/NNtZ50QckPb

1/ A rare star system with 6 #exoplanets has been unlocked with the help of our @ESA_Cheops mission A special discovery because the planets’ orbital configuration shows that the system is largely unchanged since formation more than a billion years ago 👉esa.int/Science_Explor…
