Identifying non-TOI candidates with CHEOPS Abstract: We propose to perform CHEOPS transit photometry of non-TOIs i.e. small planet candidates detected in TESS light curves with a relatively low signal-to-noise ratio (S/N < 7). More specifically the program aims at 1) excluding false alarms and increasing the significance of the transit detection 2) identifying additional transiting planet candidates (aka ChOIs) in bright TESS systems already known to host a TOI 3) improving the transit ephemeris and parameters.
