CHEOPS in the literature

The ESA CHEOPS ADS library which includes refereed papers published since launch that:

• make direct use of data from a mission including from its primary catalogues
• make quantitative predictions of results from a mission
• describe the mission, its instruments, operations, software or calibrations

can be found at this link.

A selection of articles on science and technical aspects of CHEOPS can be found at the individual links below.
