TESS Giants Transiting Giants II: The hottest Jupiters orbiting evolved stars

Samuel K. Grunblatt, Nicholas Saunders, Meng Sun +42

Giant planets on short-period orbits are predicted to be inflated and eventually engulfed by their host stars. However, the detailed timescales and stages of these processes are no…

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…

A 20-Second Cadence View of Solar-Type Stars and Their Planets with TESS: Asteroseismology of Solar Analogs and a Re-characterization of pi Men c

Daniel Huber, Timothy R. White, Travis S. Metcalfe +50

We present an analysis of the first 20-second cadence light curves obtained by the TESS space telescope during its extended mission. We find a precision improvement of 20-second da…

TOI-1749: an M dwarf with a Trio of Planets including a Near-Resonant Pair

A. Fukui, J. Korth, J. H. Livingston +65

We report the discovery of one super-Earth- (TOI-1749b) and two sub-Neptune-sized planets (TOI-1749c and TOI-1749d) transiting an early M dwarf at a distance of 100~pc, which were…

TOI-674b: an oasis in the desert of exo-Neptunes transiting a nearby M dwarf

F. Murgas, N. Astudillo-Defru, X. Bonfils +59

We use TESS, Spitzer, ground-based light curves and HARPS spectrograph radial velocity measurements to establish the physical properties of the transiting exoplanet candidate TOI-6…

TOI-1431b/MASCARA-5b: A Highly Irradiated Ultra-Hot Jupiter Orbiting One of the Hottest & Brightest Known Exoplanet Host Stars

Brett Christopher Addison, Emil Knudstrup, Ian Wong +70

We present the discovery of a highly irradiated and moderately inflated ultra-hot Jupiter, TOI-1431b/MASCARA-5b (HD 201033b), first detected by NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey S…
