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…
MANGOS II: Five new giant planets orbiting low-mass stars
G. Dransfield, M. Timmermans, D. Sebastian +47
Giant planets orbiting low-mass stars on short orbits present a conundrum, as in the most extreme cases their existence cannot be reconciled with current models of core accretion.…
TOI-1743 b, TOI-5799 b, TOI-5799 c and TOI-6223 b: TESS discovery and validation of four super-Earth to Neptune-sized planets around M dwarfs
S. Yalçınkaya, K. Barkaoui, Ã. BaÅtürk +62
We present the discovery by the TESS mission of one transiting Neptune-sized planet, TOI-6223 b and two transiting super-Earths, TOI-1743 b and TOI-5799 b. We validate these planet…
TOI-1846b: A super-Earth in the radius valley orbiting a nearby M dwarf
Abderahmane Soubkiou, Khalid Barkaoui, Zouhair Benkhaldoun +42
We present the discovery and validation of a super-Earth planet orbiting the M dwarf star TOI-1846 (TIC 198385543). The host star(Kmag = 9.6)is located 47 pc away and has a radius…
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-6508b: A massive transiting brown dwarf orbiting a low-mass star
K. Barkaoui, D. Sebastian, S. Zúñiga-Fernández +44
We report the discovery of a transiting brown dwarf orbiting a low-mass star, TOI-6508b. Today, only ~50 transiting brown dwarfs have been discovered. TOI-6508b was first detected…
