Аннотация:We present the confirmation of a hot super-Neptune with an exterior Neptune companion orbiting a bright (V = 10.1 mag) F-dwarf identified by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). The two planets, observed in sectors 45, 46 and 48 of the TESS extended mission, are 4.74+0.16−0.14R⊕ and 3.86+0.17−0.16R⊕ with 5.4588385+0.0000070−0.0000072 d and 17.8999+0.0018−0.0013 d orbital periods, respectively. We also obtained precise space based photometric follow-up of the system with ESA's CHaracterising ExOplanets Satellite (CHEOPS) to constrain the radius and ephemeris of TOI-5126 b. TOI-5126 b is located in the 'hot Neptune Desert' and is an ideal candidate for follow-up transmission spectroscopy due to its high predicted equilibrium temperature (Teq= 1442+46−40 K) implying a cloud-free atmosphere. TOI-5126 c is a warm Neptune (Teq= 971+31−27 K) also suitable for follow-up. Tentative transit timing variations (TTVs) have also been identified in analysis, suggesting the presence of at least one additional planet, however this signal may be caused by spot-crossing events, necessitating further precise photometric follow-up to confirm these signals.
