The sensitivity of TESS to transiting planets in TOIs with close-in stellar companions

High resolution imaging with optical speckle interferometry has revealed that many transiting exoplanet host stars possess close-in stellar companions. The objective of this study…
CAFE follow-up of TESS hot Jupiter candidates left behind: I. Five newly confirmed planets and a false positive
J. Lillo-Box, C. Cifuentes, O. Balsalobre-Ruza +56
Hot Jupiters are key targets for understanding planet formation, migration, and atmospheres. Yet, most ground-based follow-up resources for the TESS mission are focused on confirmi…

TOI-7169 b: A Hot Jupiter Transiting a Metal-Poor Star
Joshua D. Simon, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Jhon Yana Galarza +38
Most known planets are found around metal-rich host stars, which has made it difficult to determine whether a lower metallicity limit for planet formation exists and how the proper…

We report the discovery and characterization of TOI-6692 b, an eccentric (e~0.54) Jupiter on a 130-day orbit. TOI-6692 b was first detected as a community TESS Object of Interest (…
A 43 day transiting Neptune and two 25 day Saturns from TESS, NGTS and ASTEP
Alicia Kendall, Solène Ulmer-Moll, Samuel Gill +53
Beyond orbital periods of 10 days, there is a dearth of known transiting gas giants. On longer orbits, planets are less affected by their host star, and become ideal probes of plan…
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…
Multicolour Validation of Two Temperate Mini-Neptunes Around M-dwarf Habitable Zones
Chengzi Jiang, Aleksandra Selezneva, Hannu Parviainen +17
For small planets orbiting within the habitable zones of their host stars, multicolour validation via photometric transit observations offers an efficient alternative to prioritize…
Migration and Evolution of giant ExoPlanets (MEEP) II: Super-Jupiters and Lithium-rich Host Stars
Jack Schulte, Joseph E. Rodriguez, David W. Latham +30
Although hot Jupiters were the first exoplanets discovered orbiting main sequence stars, the dominant mechanisms through which they form and evolve are not known. To address the qu…
Validation of TESS Planet Candidates with Multi-Color Transit Photometry and TRICERATOPS+
Jonathan Gomez Barrientos, Michael Greklek-McKeon, Heather A. Knutson +33
We present an upgraded version of TRICERATOPS, a software package designed to calculate false positive probabilities for planet candidates identified by the Transiting Exoplanet Su…
A New Brown Dwarf Orbiting an M star and An Investigation on the Eccentricity Distribution of Transiting Long-Period Brown Dwarfs
Tianjun Gan, Charles Cadieux, Shigeru Ida +32
The orbital eccentricities of brown dwarfs encode valuable information of their formation and evolution history, providing insights into whether they resemble giant planets or stel…
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…
A transiting giant planet in orbit around a 0.2-solar-mass host star
Edward M. Bryant, Andrés Jordán, Joel D. Hartman +56
Planet formation models suggest that the formation of giant planets is significantly harder around low-mass stars, due to the scaling of protoplanetary disc masses with stellar mas…
The TOI-1117 Multi-planetary System: 3 sub-Neptunes, 1 in both the Neptunian Desert and Radius Valley
Isobel S. Lockley, David J. Armstrong, Jorge Fernández Fernández +33
We present the discovery of three sub-Neptune planets around TOI-1117, a Sun-like star with mass , radius , age Gyr and ef…
