A Search for Transiting Exocomets in TESS Sectors 1-26
Azib Norazman, Grant M. Kennedy, Ann Marie Cody +3
We present a search for single photometric exocomet transits using a magnitude-limited sample of stars observed by the TESS primary mission. These events are asymmetric, with a sha…
Validation of 13 Hot and Potentially Terrestrial TESS Planets
Steven Giacalone, Courtney D. Dressing, Christina Hedges +108
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will be able to probe the atmospheres and surface properties of hot, terrestrial planets via emission spectroscopy. We identify 18 potentially…
No Transits of Proxima Centauri Planets in High-Cadence TESS Data
Emily A. Gilbert, Thomas Barclay, Ethan Kruse +2
Proxima Centauri is our nearest stellar neighbor and one of the most well-studied stars in the sky. In 2016, a planetary companion was detected through radial velocity measurements…
Identifying Planetary Transit Candidates in TESS Full-Frame Image Light Curves via Convolutional Neural Networks
Greg Olmschenk, Stela Ishitani Silva, Gioia Rau +8
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission measured light from stars in ~75% of the sky throughout its two year primary mission, resulting in millions of TESS 30-minu…
A planet within the debris disk around the pre-main-sequence star AU Microscopii
Peter Plavchan, Thomas Barclay, Jonathan Gagné +84
AU Microscopii (AU Mic) is the second closest pre main sequence star, at a distance of 9.79 parsecs and with an age of 22 million years. AU Mic possesses a relatively rare and spat…
The First Habitable Zone Earth-sized Planet from TESS. I: Validation of the TOI-700 System
Emily A. Gilbert, Thomas Barclay, Joshua E. Schlieder +92
We present the discovery and validation of a three-planet system orbiting the nearby (31.1 pc) M2 dwarf star TOI-700 (TIC 150428135). TOI-700 lies in the TESS continuous viewing zo…
