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-4641b: An Aligned Warm Jupiter Orbiting a Bright (V=7.5) Rapidly Rotating F-star
Allyson Bieryla, George Zhou, Juliana García-Mejía +25
We report the discovery of TOI-4641b, a warm Jupiter transiting a rapidly rotating F-type star with a stellar effective temperature of 6560 K. The planet has a radius of 0.73 $R_{J…
TOI-5344 b: A Saturn-like planet orbiting a super-Solar metallicity M0 dwarf
Te Han, Paul Robertson, Shubham Kanodia +19
We confirm the planetary nature of TOI-5344 b as a transiting giant exoplanet around an M0 dwarf star. TOI-5344 b was discovered with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite phot…
The POKEMON Speckle Survey of Nearby M Dwarfs. II. Observations of 1125 Targets
Catherine A. Clark, Gerard T. van Belle, Elliott P. Horch +7
Stellar multiplicity is correlated with many stellar properties, yet multiplicity measurements have proven difficult for the M dwarfs -- the most common type of star in our galaxy…
TOI-5126: A hot super-Neptune and warm Neptune pair discovered by and
Tyler R. Fairnington, Emma Nabbie, Chelsea X. Huang +33
We present the confirmation of a hot super-Neptune with an exterior Neptune companion orbiting a bright (V = 10.1 mag) F-dwarf identified by the $\textit{Transiting Exoplanet Surve…
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-5375 B: A Very Low Mass Star at the Hydrogen-Burning Limit Orbiting an Early M-type Star
Mika Lambert, Chad F. Bender, Shubham Kanodia +16
The TESS mission detected a companion orbiting TIC 71268730, categorized it as a planet candidate, and designated the system TOI-5375. Our follow-up analysis using radial velocity…
TOI-3984 A b and TOI-5293 A b: two temperate gas giants transiting mid-M dwarfs in wide binary systems
Caleb I. Cañas, Shubham Kanodia, Jessica Libby-Roberts +30
We confirm the planetary nature of two gas giants discovered by TESS to transit M dwarfs with stellar companions at wide separations. TOI-3984 A () is an M4 dwarf hosting…
An In-Depth Look at TOI-3884b: a Super-Neptune Transiting a M4 Dwarf with Persistent Star Spot Crossings
Jessica E. Libby-Roberts, Maria Schutte, Leslie Hebb +25
We perform an in-depth analysis of the recently validated TOI-3884 system, an M4 dwarf star with a transiting super-Neptune. Using high precision light curves obtained with the 3.5…
