Migration and Evolution of giant ExoPlanets (MEEP). III. Twenty-Nine Giant Planets from the TESS Mission

Jack Schulte, Joseph E. Rodriguez, David W. Latham +97

We present the discovery and characterization of 29 hot and warm Jupiter systems transiting bright () FGK stars using TESS data and ground-based photometry and spectrosco…

The TASSIE Program. II: Three Close-In Companions Orbiting Sun-Like Stars

T. Plunkett, E. Thygesen, A. A. Cole +16

We present three southern transiting giant planet candidates alerted by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission and investigated at the University of Tasmania Gree…

HIP 61637 b: a TESS Brown Dwarf in a Near-circular Orbit around a Massive A-type Star

Nino Ephremidze, David W. Latham, Perry Berlind +8

We present the characterization of HIP 61637 b (TOI-5401 b), a brown dwarf discovered by TESS to transit an A-type star. HIP 61637 is the most massive and the brightest star known…

Lithium Enrichment in a Subgiant Star with a Brown Dwarf Companion: A Planetary Engulfment Candidate

Brooke Kotten, Melinda Soares-Furtado, Ricardo Yarza +11

Theoretical models predict that subgiants within a narrow mass regime can retain detectable lithium enrichment signatures from planetary engulfment. We test this prediction using T…

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…

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…

The TESS Grand Unified Hot Jupiter Survey. III. Thirty More Giant Planets

Samuel W. Yee, Joshua N. Winn, Joel D. Hartman +123

We present the discovery of 30 transiting giant planets that were initially detected using data from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission. These new planets…

TOI-2005b: An Eccentric Warm Jupiter in Spin-Orbit Alignment

Allyson Bieryla, Jiayin Dong, George Zhou +36

We report the discovery and characterization of TOI-2005b, a warm Jupiter on an eccentric (e~0.59), 17.3-day orbit around a V_mag = 9.867 rapidly rotating F-star. The object was de…

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME) XII: A Young Mini-Neptune on the Upper Edge of the Radius Valley in the Hyades Cluster

Adam Distler, Melinda Soares-Furtado, Andrew Vanderburg +18

We present the discovery and characterization of TOI-4364\,b, a young mini-Neptune in the tidal tails of the Hyades cluster, identified through TESS transit observations and ground…

Migration and Evolution of giant ExoPlanets (MEEP) I: Nine Newly Confirmed Hot Jupiters from the TESS Mission

Jack Schulte, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Allyson Bieryla +72

Hot Jupiters were many of the first exoplanets discovered in the 1990s, but in the decades since their discovery, the mysteries surrounding their origins remain. Here, we present n…

Verification of Gaia DR3 Single-lined Spectroscopic Binary Solutions With Three Transiting Low-mass Secondaries

Stephen P. Schmidt, Kevin C. Schlaufman, Keyi Ding +18

While secondary mass inferences based on single-lined spectroscopic binary (SB1) solutions are subject to degeneracies, this degeneracy can be lifted through the observat…
