cds-question@unistra.frexoplanetsinfrared-photometryThe ESA Ariel mission has been adopted for launch in 2029 and will conduct a survey of around 1000 exoplanetary atmospheres during its primary mission life. By providing homogeneous data sets with a high signal-to-noise ratio and wide wavelength coverage, Ariel will unveil the atmospheric demographics of these faraway worlds, helping to constrain planet formation and evolution processes on a galactic scale. Ariel seeks to undertake a statistical survey of a diverse population of planets; therefore, the sample of planets from which this selection can be made is of the utmost importance. While many suitable targets have already been found, hundreds more will be discovered before the mission is operational. Previous studies have used predictions of exoplanet detections to forecast the available planet population by the launch date of Ariel, with the most recent noting that the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) alone should provide over 1000 potential targets. In this work, we consider the planet candidates found to date by TESS to show that, with the addition of already confirmed planets, Ariel will already have a more than sufficient sample to choose its target list from once these candidates are validated. We showcase the breadth of this population, as well as exploring, for the first time, the ability of Ariel to characterize multiple planets within a single system. Comparative planetology of worlds orbiting the same star, as well as across the wider population, will undoubtedly revolutionize our understanding of planet formation and evolution.2022AJ....164...15Ehttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/AJ/164/15CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toI/337 : Gaia DR1 (Gaia Collaboration, 2016)I/345 : Gaia DR2 (Gaia Collaboration, 2018)J/ApJS/208/9 : Intrinsic colors and temperatures of PMS stars (Pecaut+, 2013)J/A+A/564/A125 : AGN Torus model comparison of AGN in the CDFS (Buchner+, 2014)J/MNRAS/440/1649 : ExoMol line lists for CH4 (Yurchenko+, 2014)J/ApJ/809/77 : Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) (Sullivan+, 2015)J/ApJ/825/62 : Star with M_p_sin(i)>0.1M_Jup_ hot Jupiter (Schlaufman+, 2016)J/ApJ/831/64 : Mass-metallicity relation for giant planets (Thorngren+, 2016)J/ApJ/834/17 : Mass & radius of planets, moons, low mass stars (Chen+, 2017)J/ApJS/239/2 : Simulated exoplanets from TESS list targets (Barclay+, 2018)J/AJ/157/242 : Updated study of potential targets for Ariel (Edwards+, 2019)J/A+A/640/A112 : TRAPPIST-1 transit timings (Ducrot+, 2020)J/A+A/640/A48 : K2-32 and K2-233 light and RV curves (Lillo-Box+, 2020)J/AJ/160/230 : WASP-31b & host star rad compared with IMACS (McGruder+, 2020)J/other/ExA/51.109 : Transit KELT-11b observed by CHEOPS (Benz+, 2021)J/A+A/646/A157 : HD 108236 CHEOPS light curves (Bonfanti+, 2021)J/other/NatAs/5.775 : nu2 Lupi CHEOPS light curves (Delrez+, 2021)J/ApJS/254/39 : Exoplanet candidates from TESS first 2yr obs (Guerrero+, 2021)J/A+A/649/A26 : TOI-178 six transiting planets (Leleu+, 2021)J/A+A/645/A100 : SPECULOOS.
