Vetting of 384 TESS Objects of Interest with TRICERATOPS and Statistical Validation of 12 Planet Candidates

Steven Giacalone, Courtney D. Dressing, Eric L. N. Jensen +34

We present TRICERATOPS, a new Bayesian tool that can be used to vet and validate TESS Objects of Interest (TOIs). We test the tool on 68 TOIs that have been previously confirmed as…

TESS Discovery of an ultra-short-period planet around the nearby M dwarf LHS 3844

Roland Vanderspek, Chelsea X. Huang, Andrew Vanderburg +45

Data from the newly-commissioned \textit{Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite} (TESS) has revealed a "hot Earth" around LHS 3844, an M dwarf located 15 pc away. The planet has a r…

TESS Discovery of a Transiting Super-Earth in the Mensae System

Chelsea X. Huang, Jennifer Burt, Andrew Vanderburg +45

We report the detection of a transiting planet around Mensae (HD 39091), using data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). The solar-type host star is unusually…

Binary orbit, physical properties, and evolutionary state of Capella (alpha Aurigae)

Guillermo Torres, Antonio Claret, Patrick A. Young

We report extensive radial-velocity measurements of the two giant components of the detached, 104-day period binary system of Capella. Our highly accurate three-dimensional orbital…

The Visual Orbit of the 1.1-day Spectroscopic Binary σ^2 Coronae Borealis from Interferometry at the CHARA Array

Deepak Raghavan, Harold A. McAlister, Guillermo Torres +11

We present an updated spectroscopic orbit and a new visual orbit for the double-lined spectroscopic binary σ^2 Coronae Borealis based on radial velocity measurements at the Oak Rid…

Improved parameters for extrasolar transiting planets

G. Torres, J. N. Winn, M. J. Holman

We present refined values for the physical parameters of transiting exoplanets, based on a self-consistent and uniform analysis of transit light curves and the observable propertie…
