Rescuing Kepler's False Positives: A Possible Habitable Zone Exoplanet in the Triple Star System KOI-1623

Rita Lanxuan Wang, Daniel Huber, Daniel Hey +6

The Kepler mission has significantly advanced our understanding of exoplanet demographics. However, Kepler planet candidates showing centroid shifts are often classified as false-p…

Searching for GEMS: TOI-5349b is a Saturn-like planet orbiting a metal-rich early M-dwarf

Angeli Sandoval, Caleb I. Cañas, Shubham Kanodia +27

We report the confirmation and analysis of TOI-5349b, a transiting, warm, Saturn-like planet orbiting an early M-dwarf with a period of 3.3 days, which we confirmed as part o…

Fundamental Parameters for Central Stars of 103 Infrared Bowshock Nebulae

Nikhil Patten, Henry A. Kobulnicky, Matthew S. Povich +16

Stellar bowshock nebulae are arcuate shock fronts formed by the interaction of radiation-driven stellar winds and the relative motion of the ambient interstellar material. Stellar…

Searching for GEMS: Confirmation of TOI-5573b, a Cool, Saturn-like Planet Orbiting An M-dwarf

Rachel B Fernandes, Shubham Kanodia, Megan Delamer +35

We present the confirmation of TOI-5573b, a Saturn-sized exoplanet on an 8.79-day orbit around an early M-dwarf (3790 K, 0.59 R, 0.61 M, 12.30 J mag). TOI-5573b has a…

Searching for GEMS: Discovery and Characterization of Two Brown Dwarfs Around M Dwarfs

Alexander Larsen, Tera N. Swaby, Henry A. Kobulnicky +17

Brown dwarfs bridge the gap between stars and planets, providing valuable insight into both planetary and stellar formation mechanisms. Yet the census of transiting brown dwarf com…

Searching for GEMS: Two Super-Jupiters around M-dwarfs -- Signatures of Instability or Accretion?

Andrew Hotnisky, Shubham Kanodia, Jessica Libby-Roberts +20

We present the discovery of TOI-6303b and TOI-6330b, two massive transiting super-Jupiters orbiting a M0 and a M2 star respectively, as part of the Searching for GEMS survey. These…

Searching for GEMS: TOI-6383Ab, a giant planet transiting an M3-dwarf star in a binary system

Lia Marta Bernabò, Shubham Kanodia, Caleb I. Canas +22

We report on the discovery of a transiting giant planet around the 3500 K M3-dwarf star TOI-6383A located 172 pc from Earth. It was detected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Sate…

Searching for GEMS: Characterizing Six Giant Planets around Cool Dwarfs

Shubham Kanodia, Arvind F. Gupta, Caleb I. Canas +42

Transiting giant exoplanets around M-dwarf stars (GEMS) are rare, owing to the low-mass host stars. However, the all-sky coverage of TESS has enabled the detection of an increasing…
