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*=…
Saturns Are Not Large Neptunes: The effect of removing inflated giants from empirical mass-radius relations
Georgina Dransfield, Valentina Tardugno, Niamh K. O'Sullivan
Empirical mass-radius relations have long been used in exoplanetology to study planet demographics and to predict masses and radii for objects where only one of these is known. Inf…
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…

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…
BEBOP VII. SOPHIE discovery of BEBOP-3b, a circumbinary giant planet on an eccentric orbit
Thomas A. Baycroft, Alexandre Santerne, Amaury H. M. J. Triaud +21
Planetary systems orbiting close binaries are valuable testing grounds for planet formation and migration models. More detections with good mass measurements are needed. We present…
A transiting giant planet in orbit around a 0.2-solar-mass host star
Edward M. Bryant, Andrés Jordán, Joel D. Hartman +56
Planet formation models suggest that the formation of giant planets is significantly harder around low-mass stars, due to the scaling of protoplanetary disc masses with stellar mas…
TOI-6478 b: a cold under-dense Neptune transiting a fully convective M dwarf from the thick disc
Madison G. Scott, Amaury H. M. J. Triaud, Khalid Barkaoui +25
Growing numbers of exoplanet detections continue to reveal the diverse nature of planetary systems. Planet formation around late-type M dwarfs is of particular interest. These syst…
TOI-2379 b and TOI-2384 b: two super-Jupiter mass planets transiting low-mass host stars
Edward M. Bryant, Daniel Bayliss, Joel D. Hartman +31
Short-period gas giant planets have been shown to be significantly rarer for host stars less massive than the Sun. We report the discovery of two transiting giant planets - TOI-237…
Detection of an Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting the nearby ultracool dwarf star SPECULOOS-3
Michaël Gillon, Peter P. Pedersen, Benjamin V. Rackham +81
Located at the bottom of the main sequence, ultracool dwarf stars are widespread in the solar neighbourhood. Nevertheless, their extremely low luminosity has left their planetary p…
