An Ancient Brown Dwarf Transiting a Metal-Poor Thick Disk Star

Jéa Adams Redai, Vedant Chandra, Samuel W. Yee +20

We report the discovery of TOI-7019b, the first transiting brown dwarf (BD) known to orbit a star that is part of the Milky Way's ancient thick disk, as defined chemically ([Fe/H]…

The Multiband Imaging Survey for High-Alpha PlanetS (MISHAPS) I: Preliminary Constraints on the Occurrence Rate of Hot Jupiters in 47 Tucanae

Alison L. Crisp, Jonas Klüter, Marz L. Newman +14

The first generation of transiting planet searches in globular clusters yielded no detections, and in hindsight, only placed occurrence rate limits slightly higher than the measure…

TOI-5005 b: A super-Neptune in the savanna near the ridge

A. Castro-González, J. Lillo-Box, D. J. Armstrong +38

The Neptunian desert and savanna have recently been found to be separated by a ridge, an overdensity of planets in the period range of 3-5 days. These features are thought…

Separated twins or just siblings? A multi-planet system around an M dwarf including a cool sub-Neptune

Mallory Harris, Diana Dragomir, Ismael Mireles +27

We report the discovery of two TESS sub-Neptunes orbiting the early M dwarf TOI-904 (TIC 261257684). Both exoplanets, TOI-904 b and c, were initially observed in TESS Sector 12 wit…
