A 43 day transiting Neptune and two 25 day Saturns from TESS, NGTS and ASTEP
Alicia Kendall, Solène Ulmer-Moll, Samuel Gill +53
Beyond orbital periods of 10 days, there is a dearth of known transiting gas giants. On longer orbits, planets are less affected by their host star, and become ideal probes of plan…
TOI-7166 b: A Habitable Zone mini-Neptune planet around a nearby low-mass star
Khalid Barkaoui, Francisco J. Pozuelos, Benjamin V. Rackham +41
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…
Multicolour Validation of Two Temperate Mini-Neptunes Around M-dwarf Habitable Zones

For small planets orbiting within the habitable zones of their host stars, multicolour validation via photometric transit observations offers an efficient alternative to prioritize…
A Paradigm Shift in Exoplanet False Positive Identification with HIP-44302
Arielle C. Frommer, Jason D. Eastman, David R. Ciardi +5
Through detailed modeling of all three stars, we show that HIP-44302 is a false positive triple-star system. While the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite initially designated th…
Precise mass and radius determination for two new and one known Neptune-sized planets around G Dwarf hosts

Justin Hom, Schuyler G. Wolff, Catherine A. Clark +28
The upcoming Roman Coronagraph will be the first high-contrast instrument in space capable of high-order wavefront sensing and control technologies, a critical technology demonstra…
NGTS-11 c: a transiting Neptune-mass planet interior to the warm Saturn NGTS-11 b
David R. Anderson, Jose I. Vines, Katharine Hesse +56
We report the discovery of NGTS-11 c, a transiting warm Neptune ( d; ; ), in an…
TOI-3288 b and TOI-4666 b: two gas giants transiting low-mass stars characterised by NIRPS
Yolanda G. C. Frensch, François Bouchy, Gaspare Lo Curto +62
Gas giant planets orbiting low-mass stars are uncommon outcomes of planet formation. Increasing the sample of well-characterised giants around early M dwarfs will enable population…
High five from ASTEP: Three validated planets and two eclipsing binaries in a diverse set of long-period candidates
Erika Rea, Maximilian N. Günther, George Dransfield +44
We present the analysis of five long-period TESS Objects of Interest (TOIs), all orbiting Sun-like stars, with orbital periods exceeding one month. Initially identified by the Tran…
A search for Be stars in multiple systems within the solar neighborhood
V. M. Kalari, R. Salinas, C. Saez-Carvajal +9
Be stars are widely considered to be the product of binary interaction. However, whether all Be stars are formed via binary interaction is unclear, and detailed estimates of the mu…
Detection and characterisation of a 106-day transiting Jupiter : TOI-2449 b / NGTS-36 b
S. Ulmer-Moll, S. Gill, R. Brahm +64
Only a handful of transiting giant exoplanets with orbital periods longer than 100 days are known. These warm exoplanets are valuable objects as their radius and mass can be measur…
THYME XIII: Two young Neptunes orbiting a 75-Myr star in the Alpha Persei Cluster
Anne Dattilo, Andrew M. Vanderburg, Madyson G. Barber +28
Young planets with mass measurements are particularly valuable in studying atmospheric mass-loss processes, but these planets are rare and their masses difficult to measure due to…
Two warm Earth-sized exoplanets and an Earth-sized candidate in the M5V-M6V binary system TOI-2267
S. Zúñiga-Fernández, F. J. Pozuelos, M. Dévora-Pajares +63
We report two warm Earth-sized exoplanets orbiting the close binary TOI-2267 (M5+M6, separation ~8 au). Data from TESS and ground-based facilities confirm the planets, but we canno…
Migration and Evolution of giant ExoPlanets (MEEP) II: Super-Jupiters and Lithium-rich Host Stars
Jack Schulte, Joseph E. Rodriguez, David W. Latham +30
Although hot Jupiters were the first exoplanets discovered orbiting main sequence stars, the dominant mechanisms through which they form and evolve are not known. To address the qu…
Sibling Sub-Neptunes Around Sibling M Dwarfs: TOI-521 and TOI-912
G. Lacedelli, E. Pallé, R. Luque +47
Sub-Neptunes are absent in the Solar System, yet they are commonly found in our Galaxy. They challenge the internal structure models and prompt investigation on their formation, ev…
TOI-1438: A rare system with two short-period sub-Neptunes and a tentative long-period Jupiter-like planet orbiting a K0V star
Carina M. Persson, Emil Knudstrup, Ilaria Carleo +44
We present the detection and characterisation of the TOI-1438 multi-planet system discovered by TESS. We collected a series of follow-up observations including high-spectral resolu…
