Are We There Yet? Challenges in Quantifying the Frequency of Earth Analogs in the Habitable Zone
Rachel B. Fernandes, Samson Johnson, Galen J. Bergsten +43
Searching for life elsewhere in the universe is one of the most highly prioritized pursuits in astronomy today. However, the ability to observe evidence of Earth-like life through…
Predictions of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Galactic Exoplanet Survey. IV. Lens Mass and Distance Measurements
Sean K. Terry, Etienne Bachelet, Farzaneh Zohrabi +54
As part of the Galactic Bulge Time Domain Survey (GBTDS), the Nancy Grace Roman Galactic Exoplanet Survey (RGES) will use microlensing to discover cold outer planets and free-float…
TOI-2015b: A Warm Neptune with Transit Timing Variations Orbiting an Active mid M Dwarf
Sinclaire E. Jones, Gudmundur Stefansson, Kento Masuda +29
We report the discovery of a close-in () warm Neptune with clear transit timing variations (TTVs) orbiting the nearby ($d=47.3\:\mathrm{pc}…
TOI-3785 b: A Low-Density Neptune Orbiting an M2-Dwarf Star
Luke C. Powers, Jessica Libby-Roberts, Andrea S. J. Lin +19
Using both ground-based transit photometry and high-precision radial velocity (RV) spectroscopy, we confirm the planetary nature of TOI-3785 b. This transiting Neptune orbits an M2…
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…
GJ 3929: High Precision Photometric and Doppler Characterization of an Exo-Venus and its Hot, Mini-Neptune-mass Companion
Corey Beard, Paul Robertson, Shubham Kanodia +31
We detail the follow up and characterization of a transiting exo-Venus identified by TESS, GJ 3929b, (TOI-2013b) and its non-transiting companion planet, GJ 3929c (TOI-2013c). GJ 3…
TOI-1696 and TOI-2136: Constraining the Masses of Two Mini-Neptunes with HPF
Corey Beard, Paul Robertson, Shubham Kanodia +29
We present the validation of two planets orbiting M dwarfs, TOI-1696b and TOI-2136b. Both planets are mini-Neptunes orbiting nearby stars, making them promising prospects for atmos…
TOI-3757 b: A low density gas giant orbiting a solar-metallicity M dwarf
Shubham Kanodia, Jessica Libby-Roberts, Caleb I. Canas +32
We present the discovery of a new Jovian-sized planet, TOI-3757 b, the lowest density planet orbiting an M dwarf (M0V). It orbits a solar-metallicity M dwarf discovered using TESS…
An eccentric Brown Dwarf eclipsing an M dwarf
Caleb I. Cañas, Suvrath Mahadevan, Chad F. Bender +16
We report the discovery of a brown dwarf transiting the early M dwarf TOI-2119 on an eccentric orbit () at an orbital period of $7.2008…
TOI-3714 b and TOI-3629 b: Two gas giants transiting M dwarfs confirmed with HPF and NEID
Caleb I. Cañas, Shubham Kanodia, Chad F. Bender +36
We confirm the planetary nature of two gas giants discovered by TESS to transit M dwarfs. TOI-3714 () is an M2 dwarf hosting a hot Jupiter ($M_p=0.70 \pm 0.03~\ma…
A hot Mars-sized exoplanet transiting an M dwarf
Caleb I. Cañas, Suvrath Mahadevan, William D. Cochran +21
We validate the planetary nature of an ultra-short period planet orbiting the M dwarf KOI-4777. We use a combination of space-based photometry from Kepler, high-precision, near-inf…
TOI-532b: The Habitable-zone Planet Finder confirms a Large Super Neptune in the Neptune Desert orbiting a metal-rich M dwarf host
Shubham Kanodia, Gudmundur Stefansson, Caleb I. Canas +30
We confirm the planetary nature of TOI-532b, using a combination of precise near-infrared radial velocities with the Habitable-zone Planet Finder, TESS light curves, ground based p…
