GJ 9827 is a bright, nearby K7V star orbited by two super-Earths and one mini-Neptune on close-in orbits. The system was first discovered using K2 data then further characterized other spectroscopic photometric instruments. Previous literature studies provide several mass measurements for the three planets, however, with large variations uncertainties. To better constrain planetary masses, we added high-precision radial velocity from ESPRESSO to published datasets HARPS, HARPS-N, HIRES...

Abstract The recent discoveries of Neptune-sized ultra-short-period planets (USPs) challenge existing planet formation theories.
