11 New Transiting Brown Dwarfs and Very Low Mass Stars from TESS
Noah Vowell, Joseph E. Rodriguez, David W. Latham +39
We present the discovery of 11 new transiting brown dwarfs and low-mass M-dwarfs from NASA's TESS mission: TOI-2844, TOI-3122, TOI-3577, TOI-3755, TOI-4462, TOI-4635, TOI-4737, TOI…
Retrieving day- and nightside atmospheric properties of the ultra-hot Jupiter TOI-2109b. Detection of Fe and CO emission lines and evidence for inefficient heat transport
D. Cont, L. Nortmann, F. Lesjak +32
The ultra-hot Jupiter (UHJ) TOI-2109b marks the lower edge of the equilibrium temperature gap between 3500 K and 4500 K, an unexplored thermal regime that separates KELT-9b, the ho…
TOI-3493 b: A planet with a Neptune-like density transiting a bright G0-type star
P. Chaturvedi, E. Goffo, D. Gandolfi +23
We report the discovery of TOI-3493 b, a sub-Neptune-sized planet on an 8.15-d orbit transiting the bright (V=9.3) G0 star HD 119355 (aka TIC 203377303) initially identified by NAS…
Constraining atmospheric composition from the outflow: helium observations reveal the fundamental properties of two planets straddling the radius gap
Michael Zhang, Jacob L. Bean, David Wilson +13
TOI-836 is a ~2-3 Gyr K dwarf with an inner super Earth (, d) and an outer mini Neptune (, d). JWST/NIRSpec 2.8--5.2 m transmiss…
The NCORES Program: Precise planetary masses, null results, and insight into the planet mass distribution near the radius gap
David J. Armstrong, Ares Osborn, Remo Burn +39
NCORES was a large observing program on the ESO HARPS spectrograph, dedicated to measuring the masses of Neptune-like and smaller transiting planets discovered by the TESS satellit…
Confirmation of four hot Jupiters detected by TESS using follow-up spectroscopy from MaHPS at Wendelstein together with NEID and TRES
Juliana Ehrhardt, Luis Thomas, Hanna Kellermann +57
We report the confirmation and characterization of four hot Jupiter-type exoplanets initially detected by TESS: TOI-1295 b, TOI-2580 b, TOI-6016 b, and TOI-6130 b. Using observatio…
