TOI-4616 b: a benchmark Earth-sized planet transiting a nearby M4 dwarf
F. Zong Lang, B. O. Demory, Y. Gomez Maqueo Chew +44
Rocky exoplanets are particularly abundant around M-type stars. Their small radii and low luminosities provide favourable conditions for detecting transiting terrestrial planets an…
