abstract
We carried out a Bayesian homogeneous determination of the orbital parameters of 231 transiting giant planets (TGPs) that are alone or have distant companions; we employed DE-MCMC methods to analyse radial-velocity (RV) data from the literature and 782 new high-accuracy RVs obtained with the HARPS-N spectrograph for 45 systems over 3 years. Our work yields the largest sample of systems with a transiting giant exoplanet and coherently determined orbital, planetary, and stellar parameters. We found that the orbital parameters of TGPs in non-compact planetary systems are clearly shaped by tides raised by their host stars. Indeed, the most eccentric planets have relatively large orbital separations and/or high mass ratios, as expected from the equilibrium tide theory. This feature would be the outcome of high-eccentricity migration (HEM). The distribution of $\alpha=a/a_R$, where $a$ and $a_R$ are the semi-major axis and the Roche limit, for well-determined circular orbits peaks at 2.5; this also agrees with expectations from the HEM. The few planets of our sample with circular orbits and $\alpha >5$ values may have migrated through disc-planet interactions instead of HEM. By comparing circularisation times with stellar ages, we found that hot Jupiters with $a < 0.05$ au have modified tidal quality factors $10^{5} < Q'_p < 10^{9}$, and that stellar $Q'_s > 10^{6}-10^{7}$ are required to explain the presence of eccentric planets at the same orbital distance. As a by-product of our analysis, we detected a non-zero eccentricity for HAT-P-29; we determined that five planets that were previously regarded to have hints of non-zero eccentricity have circular orbits or undetermined eccentricities; we unveiled curvatures caused by distant companions in the RV time series of HAT-P-2, HAT-P-22, and HAT-P-29; and we revised the planetary parameters of CoRoT-1b.

JWST MIRI/LRS data combined with archival observations detect magnesium silicate clouds (likely Mg2SiO4) in HD 209458b at 1-10 mbar with ~0.1 micron particles using a new rule-based data reduction approach.
The atmosphere of TOI-1130b shows high metallicity, low C/O, and elevated mean molecular weight consistent with ex-situ formation beyond the water ice line.
Simulations show that von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai migration from inclined companions produces misaligned short-period hot Jupiters while coplanar high-eccentricity migration preserves alignment at longer periods.
JWST/NIRCam observations of 2024 YR4 extend the orbital arc by eight months, reduce 2032 lunar encounter uncertainty by >30x, and rule out impact with a 22,900 ± 800 km miss distance.
New 2025 transit timing of HIP 41378 f shows a 7-hour early arrival consistent with TTVs; N-body modeling with TRADES refines ephemerides for planets d, e, and f.
J0404+1112 is a 2.93 hr period totally eclipsing WD+BD system with a hot DA white dwarf (T_eff ~28,000 K) and ~40 M_Jup brown dwarf, enabling isolation of nightside emission and serving as a JWST atmospheric benchmark.
Updated RM modeling framework in TLCM validated on nine systems and applied to TOI-135 to measure sky-projected obliquity λ = 55.6° with ~11° uncertainties.
Including tidal and centrifugal gravity corrections increases retrieved molecular abundances in transmission spectra retrievals for WASP-12b (HST) and WASP-39b (JWST).
AstroSkyFlow generates simulated time-series astronomical images with realistic noise and variability, outperforming SkyMaker in noise and PSF reproduction while recovering injected signals such as exoplanet transits and asteroid trails.
NUV transit depth of XO-3b measured at 0.1371 with 22-minute late center; X-ray data yield mass-loss rate ~10^4 g/s; bow-shock model predicts early rather than late transit.
TOI-159 b is confirmed as the hottest known eccentric hot Jupiter (e = 0.24) with a 13-sigma Keplerian detection around a young gamma Doradus star, including a preliminary low-resolution transmission spectrum.
New homogeneous abundances for 19 elements in 25 JWST planet-host stars show Tcond slopes independent of stellar and planetary properties after GCE correction, indicating mixed origins requiring careful interpretation.
New transit observations of WASP-43 b yield no evidence of orbital decay while revealing major challenges in combining multi-instrument data for atmospheric retrievals.
New transit data for WASP-11 b over 16 years shows no orbital decay or TTV signals from other planets, with a transmission spectrum exhibiting a strong Rayleigh scattering slope possibly from the atmosphere or contamination.
