Dippers are a common class of young variable star exhibiting day-long dimmings with depths of up to several tens of percent. A standard explanation is that dippers host nearly edge…
The young planetary system K2-25: constraints on companions and starspots
Isabel J. Kain, Elisabeth R. Newton, Jason A. Dittmann +5
The abundance of planets with orbital periods of a few to tens of days suggests that exoplanets experience complex dynamical histories. Planets in young stellar clusters or associa…

In this paper we report the current status of a new research program. The primary goal of the "Vanishing & Appearing Sources during a Century of Observations" (VASCO) project is to…
TOI-132 b: A short-period planet in the Neptune desert transiting a G-type star
Matías R. Díaz, James S. Jenkins, Davide Gandolfi +45
The Neptune desert is a feature seen in the radius-mass-period plane, whereby a notable dearth of short period, Neptune-like planets is found. Here we report the {\it TESS} discove…
TOI-677 b: A Warm Jupiter (P=11.2d) on an eccentric orbit transiting a late F-type star

We report the discovery of TOI-677 b, first identified as a candidate in light curves obtained within Sectors 9 and 10 of the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission a…
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…
Zodiacal Exoplanets in Time (ZEIT) IX: a flat transmission spectrum and a highly eccentric orbit for the young Neptune K2-25b as revealed by Spitzer
Pa Chia Thao, Andrew W. Mann, Marshall C. Johnson +9
Transiting planets in nearby young clusters offer the opportunity to study the atmospheres and dynamics of planets during their formative years. To this end, we focused on K2-25b -…
Kojima-1Lb Is a Mildly Cold Neptune around the Brightest Microlensing Host Star
A. Fukui, D. Suzuki, N. Koshimoto +56
We report the analysis of additional multiband photometry and spectroscopy and new adaptive optics (AO) imaging of the nearby planetary microlensing event TCP J05074264+2447555 (Ko…
TOI-222: a single-transit TESS candidate revealed to be a 34-day eclipsing binary with CORALIE, EulerCam and NGTS
Monika Lendl, François Bouchy, Samuel Gill +58
We report the period, eccentricity, and mass determination for the TESS single-transit event candidate TOI-222, which displayed a single 3000 ppm transit in the TESS two-minute cad…
Planet Hunters TESS I: TOI 813, a subgiant hosting a transiting Saturn-sized planet on an 84-day orbit
