The TASSIE Program. II: Three Close-In Companions Orbiting Sun-Like Stars

T. Plunkett, E. Thygesen, A. A. Cole +16

We present three southern transiting giant planet candidates alerted by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission and investigated at the University of Tasmania Gree…

Euclid Quick Data Release (Q2) -- The Euclid Galactic Bulge Survey

J. -P. Beaulieu, E. Bachelet, M. Gilles +173

The Euclid Quick Data Release Q2 provides an unprecedented deep, wide-field, high-angular-resolution view of the inner Galactic bulge through the Euclid Galactic Bulge Survey (EGBS…

A Multiwavelength Assessment Disfavoring the X-ray Binary Origin of He III Regions in Metal-Poor Star-Forming Dwarf Galaxies

Ivan Altunin, Christopher Ellis, Richard M. Plotkin +9

Recent observations of metal-poor, star-forming dwarf galaxies reveal He III regions, traced by nebular He II 4686 emission that require a strong source of extreme-ultraviolet (EUV…

Historic microlensing events in the euclid Galactic Bulge Survey

V. Bozza, L. Salmeri, P. Rota +47

Microlensing campaigns have a long history of observations covering the Galactic bulge, where thousands of detections have been obtained, including many exoplanetary systems. The E…

The K2 and TESS Synergy III: search and rescue of the lost ephemeris for K2's first planet

Erica Thygesen, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Zoë L. De Beurs +13

K2-2 b/HIP 116454 b, the first exoplanet discovery by K2 during its Two-Wheeled Concept Engineering Test, is a sub-Neptune (2.5 0.1 , 9.7 1.2 ) orbi…

Characterization of K2-167 b and CALM, a new stellar activity mitigation method

Zoë L. de Beurs, Andrew Vanderburg, Erica Thygesen +13

We report precise radial velocity (RV) observations of HD 212657 (= K2-167), a star shown by K2 to host a transiting sub-Neptune-sized planet in a 10 day orbit. Using Transiting Ex…

Multiwavelength Scrutiny of X-ray Sources in Dwarf Galaxies: ULXs versus AGN

Erica Thygesen, Richard M. Plotkin, Roberto Soria +10

Owing to their quiet evolutionary histories, nearby dwarf galaxies (stellar masses ) have the potential to teach us about the mechanism(s) t…

The K2 & TESS Synergy II: Revisiting 26 systems in the TESS Primary Mission

Erica Thygesen, Jessica A. Ranshaw, Joseph E. Rodriguez +16

The legacy of NASA's K2 mission has provided hundreds of transiting exoplanets that can be revisited by new and future facilities for further characterization, with a particular fo…

Globular Cluster Ultraluminous X-ray Sources in the Furthest Early-Type Galaxies

E. Thygesen, Y. Sun, J. Huang +5

Ultraluminous X-ray Sources (ULXs) in globular clusters are low mass X-ray binaries that achieve high X-ray luminosities through a currently uncertain accretion mechanism. Using ar…

Another Shipment of Six Short-Period Giant Planets from TESS

Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn, Andrew Vanderburg +119

We present the discovery and characterization of six short-period, transiting giant planets from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) -- TOI-1811 (TIC 376524552), TO…

Ultraluminous X-ray Sources in Seven Edge-On Spiral Galaxies

Kristen C. Dage, Noah Vowell, Erica Thygesen +8

We investigate a sample of seven edge-on spiral galaxies using Chandra observations. Edge-on spiral galaxies allow us to clearly separate source associated with their star-forming…

Three Ultraluminous X-ray Sources Hosted by Globular Clusters in NGC 1316

Kristen C. Dage, Arunav Kundu, Erica Thygesen +8

We have identified three ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) hosted by globular clusters (GCs) within NGC 1316's stellar system. These discoveries bring the total number of known UL…

X-Ray Spectroscopy of Newly Identified ULXs Associated With M87's Globular Cluster Population

Kristen C. Dage, Stephen E. Zepf, Erica Thygesen +5

We have identified seven ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) which are coincident with globular cluster candidates (GCs) associated with M87. ULXs in the old GC environment represen…
