Photometry of 10 Million Stars from the First Two Years of TESS Full Frame Images

Chelsea X. Huang, Andrew Vanderburg, András Pál +8

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is the first high-precision full-sky photometry survey in space. We present light curves from a magnitude limited set of stars and…

The Magellan-TESS Survey I: Survey Description and Mid-Survey Results

Johanna Teske, Sharon Xuesong Wang, Angie Wolfgang +66

revealed that roughly one-third of Sun-like stars host planets orbiting within 100 days and between the size of Earth and Neptune. How do these planets form, what are they…

Spitzer Reveals Evidence of Molecular Absorption in the Atmosphere of the Hot Neptune LTT 9979b

Diana Dragomir, Ian J. M. Crossfield, Bjorn Benneke +27

Non-rocky sub-jovian exoplanets in high irradiation environments are rare. LTT 9979b, also known as TESS Object of Interest (TOI) 193.01, is one of the few such planets discovered…

A Giant Planet Candidate Transiting a White Dwarf

Andrew Vanderburg, Saul A. Rappaport, Siyi Xu +61

Astronomers have discovered thousands of planets outside the solar system, most of which orbit stars that will eventually evolve into red giants and then into white dwarfs. During…

TIC 278956474: Two close binaries in one young quadruple system, identified by \textit{TESS}

Pamela Rowden, Tamás Borkovits, Jon M. Jenkins +25

We have identified a quadruple system with two close eclipsing binaries in TESS data. The object is unresolved in Gaia and appears as a single source at parallax 1.08~0.01 mas…

The multi-planet system TOI-421 -- A warm Neptune and a super puffy mini-Neptune transiting a G9 V star in a visual binary

Ilaria Carleo, Davide Gandolfi, Oscar Barragán +110

We report the discovery of a warm Neptune and a hot sub-Neptune transiting TOI-421 (BD-14 1137, TIC 94986319), a bright (V=9.9) G9 dwarf star in a visual binary system observed by…
