TOI-6981 b: a transiting sub-Neptune at the water ice line
Madison G. Scott, Amaury H. M. J Triaud, Emily K. Pass +42
We present TOI-6981 b, a cold (Teq= 170.0 +/-4.5 K, assuming an Earth-like albedo) sub-Neptune (Rb=2.40+/-0.10 R_oplus) on a 60.8 day orbit around around its M4-type host star (R*=…
Assessing the Impact of High-Resolution Imaging on Statistical Validation of TESS Planet Candidates
Michael Collier, Steven Giacalone, Brian Derfer +38
High-resolution imaging is widely used to constrain false-positive scenarios in exoplanet validation, but it is a finite follow-up resource that reaches only a subset of candidates…
Stellar Multiplicity of M Dwarfs with Short-period Giant Planets, and the Characterization of TOI-5628Ab
Tianjun Gan, Alexandrine L'Heureux, Charles Cadieux +33
Binary stars are ubiquitous, yet it remains unclear how wide-orbit stellar companions influence the formation of hot Jupiters, particularly around M dwarfs. Here, we first report t…

TOI-7169 b: A Hot Jupiter Transiting a Metal-Poor Star
Joshua D. Simon, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Jhon Yana Galarza +38
Most known planets are found around metal-rich host stars, which has made it difficult to determine whether a lower metallicity limit for planet formation exists and how the proper…

Two temperate Earth- and Neptune-sized planets orbiting fully convective M dwarfs
Madison G. Scott, Georgina Dransfield, Mathilde Timmermans +30
As the diversity of exoplanets continues to grow, it is important to revisit assumptions about habitability and classical HZ definitions. In this work, we introduce an expanded 'te…

Khalid Barkaoui, Francisco J. Pozuelos, Benjamin V. Rackham +41
We present the discovery and validation of TOI-7166b, a 2.01+/-0.05R_Earth planet orbiting a nearby low-mass star. We validated the planet by combining TESS and multi-color high-pr…
TOI-333b: A Neptune Desert planet around a F7V star
Douglas R. Alves, James S. Jenkins, José I. Vinés +29
Observations have shown that planets similar to Neptune are rarely found orbiting Sun-like stars with periods up to ~4 days, defining the so-called Neptune desert region. Therefore…
MANGOS II: Five new giant planets orbiting low-mass stars
G. Dransfield, M. Timmermans, D. Sebastian +47
Giant planets orbiting low-mass stars on short orbits present a conundrum, as in the most extreme cases their existence cannot be reconciled with current models of core accretion.…
