  • Abstract: The large number of close-in Jupiter-size exoplanets prompts the question whether star-planet interaction (SPI) effects can be detected. We focus our attention on the system HD 17156, having a Jupiter-mass planet in a very eccentric orbit. A brightening of the stellar corona in X-rays was observed during a periastron passage of its planet and this could be a systematic effect of magnetic SPI. With this proposal we aim at the detection of any increase of the flux in the CHEOPS band when the planet is close to periastron. We also aim at investigating the origin of the flaring activity, whether it is due to the interaction of the stellar and planetary magnetic fields, or originating from accretion of material tidally stripped by the planet and falling onto the stellar surface.

Mission Description CHEOPS (Benz et al., https://doi.org/10.1007/s10686-020-09679-4) is a European Space Agency (ESA) mission in partnership with Switzerland with important contributions to the payload and the ground segment from Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom.

The satellite has a single payload comprising an ultra-high precision photometer covering the 330 - 1100 nm wavelength range in a single photometric band. Observations are made as part of the Guaranteed Time Observing Programme that is formulated by the CHEOPS Science Team, and the Guest Observers Programme through which the Community at large can apply for CHEOPS time.
