The TESS Mission Target Selection Procedure
Michael Fausnaugh, Ed Morgan, Roland Vanderspek +61
We describe the target selection procedure by which stars are selected for 2-minute and 20-second observations by TESS. We first list the technical requirements of the TESS instrum…
Hot planets around cool stars -- two short-period mini-Neptunes transiting the late K-dwarf TOI-1260
I. Y. Georgieva, C. M. Persson, O. Barragán +56
We present the discovery and characterization of two sub-Neptunes in close orbits, as well as a tentative outer planet of a similar size, orbiting TOI-1260 - a low metallicity K6V…
TOI-1634 b: an Ultra-Short Period Keystone Planet Sitting Inside the M Dwarf Radius Valley
R. Cloutier, D. Charbonneau, K. G. Stassun +63
Studies of close-in planets orbiting M dwarfs have suggested that the M dwarf radius valley may be well-explained by distinct formation timescales between enveloped terrestrials, a…
Precise transit and radial-velocity characterization of a resonant pair: a warm Jupiter TOI-216c and eccentric warm Neptune TOI-216b
Rebekah I. Dawson, Chelsea X. Huang, Rafael Brahm +53
TOI-216 hosts a pair of warm, large exoplanets discovered by the TESS Mission. These planets were found to be in or near the 2:1 resonance, and both of them exhibit transit timing…
TESS Delivers Five New Hot Giant Planets Orbiting Bright Stars from the Full Frame Images
Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn, George Zhou +115
We present the discovery and characterization of five hot and warm Jupiters -- TOI-628 b (TIC 281408474; HD 288842), TOI-640 b (TIC 147977348), TOI-1333 b (TIC 395171208, BD+47 352…
TOI-1259Ab -- a gas giant planet with 2.7% deep transits and a bound white dwarf companion
David V. Martin, Kareem El-Badry, Vedad Kunovac Hodžić +33
We present TOI-1259Ab, a 1.0 Rjup gas giant planet transiting a 0.71 Rsun K-dwarf on a 3.48 day orbit. The system also contains a bound white dwarf companion TOI-1259B with a proje…
