TOI-530b: A giant planet transiting an M dwarf detected by TESS
Tianjun Gan, Zitao Lin, Sharon Xuesong Wang +44
We report the discovery of TOI-530b, a transiting giant planet around an M0.5V dwarf, delivered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). The host star is located at a d…
The TESS Mission Target Selection Procedure
Michael Fausnaugh, Ed Morgan, Roland Vanderspek +61
We describe the target selection procedure by which stars are selected for 2-minute and 20-second observations by TESS. We first list the technical requirements of the TESS instrum…
TESS Science Processing Operations Center FFI Target List Products
Douglas A. Caldwell, Peter Tenenbaum, Joseph D. Twicken +7
We report the delivery to the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes of target pixel and light curve files for up to 160,000 targets selected from full-frame images (FFI) for each T…
TESS Reveals HD 118203 b to be a Transiting Planet
Joshua Pepper, Stephen R. Kane, Joseph E. Rodriguez +30
The exoplanet HD 118203 b, orbiting a bright (V = 8.05) host star, was discovered using the radial velocity method by da Silva et al. (2006), but was not previously known to transi…
TOI-216b and TOI-216c: Two warm, large exoplanets in or slightly wide of the 2:1 orbital resonance
Rebekah I. Dawson, Chelsea X. Huang, Jack J. Lissauer +32
Warm, large exoplanets with 10-100 day orbital periods pose a major challenge to our understanding of how planetary systems form and evolve. Although high eccentricity tidal migrat…
A Swarm of WASP Planets: Nine giant planets identified by the WASP survey
Nicole Schanche, Guillaume Hébrard, Keivan G. Stassun +52
The Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP) survey provided some of the first transiting hot Jupiter candidates. With the addition of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS),…
TESS observations of the WASP-121 b phase curve
Tansu Daylan, Maximilian N. Günther, Thomas Mikal-Evans +23
We study the red-optical photometry of the ultra-hot Jupiter WASP-121 b as observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and model its atmosphere through a radiative…
TESS Discovery of an ultra-short-period planet around the nearby M dwarf LHS 3844
Roland Vanderspek, Chelsea X. Huang, Andrew Vanderburg +45
Data from the newly-commissioned \textit{Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite} (TESS) has revealed a "hot Earth" around LHS 3844, an M dwarf located 15 pc away. The planet has a r…
