COUNTESS I: A Uniformly Vetted Catalog of Known and New Transiting Exoplanets in the TESS Northern Continuous Viewing Zone

Andrew Hotnisky, Rachel B. Fernandes, Kevin K. Hardegree-Ullman +9

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has transformed the study of nearby exoplanetary systems; however, its nominal observing strategy limits sensitivity to planets wit…

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: 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…

Gaia-4b and 5b: Radial Velocity Confirmation of Gaia Astrometric Orbital Solutions Reveal a Massive Planet and a Brown Dwarf Orbiting Low-mass Stars

Gudmundur Stefansson, Suvrath Mahadevan, Joshua Winn +31

Gaia astrometry of nearby stars is precise enough to detect the tiny displacements induced by substellar companions, but radial velocity data are needed for definitive confirmation…
