High-Resolution Imaging of a TESS Control Sample: Verifying a Deficit of Close-In Stellar Companions to Exoplanet Host Stars

Colin Littlefield, Steve B. Howell, David R. Ciardi +6

The large number of exoplanets discovered with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) means that any observational biases from TESS could influence the derived stellar mu…

TOI-1801 b: A temperate mini-Neptune around a young M0.5 dwarf

M. Mallorquín, E. Goffo, E. Pallé +79

We report the discovery, mass, and radius determination of TOI-1801 b, a temperate mini-Neptune around a young M dwarf. TOI-1801 b was observed in TESS sectors 22 and 49, and the a…

Visual Orbits & Alignments of Planet Hosting Binary Systems

Kathryn Lester, Steve Howell, Rachel Matson +7

Roughly half of Solar-type planet hosts have stellar companions, so understanding how these binary companions affect the formation and evolution of planets is an important componen…

TOI-2084 b and TOI-4184 b: two new sub-Neptunes around M dwarf stars

K. Barkaoui, M. Timmermans, A. Soubkiou +67

We present the discovery and validation of two TESS exoplanets orbiting nearby M dwarfs: TOI-2084b, and TOI-4184b. We characterized the host stars by combining spectra from Shane/K…

TESS and CHEOPS Discover Two Warm Sub-Neptunes Transiting the Bright K-dwarf HD 15906

Amy Tuson, Didier Queloz, Hugh P. Osborn +119

We report the discovery of two warm sub-Neptunes transiting the bright (G = 9.5 mag) K-dwarf HD 15906 (TOI 461, TIC 4646810). This star was observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Sur…
