TOI 564 b and TOI 905 b: Grazing and Fully Transiting Hot Jupiters Discovered by TESS

Allen B. Davis, Songhu Wang, Matias Jones +46

We report the discovery and confirmation of two new hot Jupiters discovered by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS): TOI 564 b and TOI 905 b. The transits of these two…

KELT-25b and KELT-26b: A Hot Jupiter and a Substellar Companion Transiting Young A-stars Observed by TESS

Romy Rodríguez Martínez, B. Scott Gaudi, Joseph E. Rodriguez +89

We present the discoveries of KELT-25b (TIC 65412605, TOI-626.01) and KELT-26b (TIC 160708862, TOI-1337.01), two transiting companions orbiting relatively bright, early A-stars. Th…

Formation of close binaries by disc fragmentation and migration, and its statistical modeling

Andrei Tokovinin, Maxwell Moe

Joint statistics of periods and mass ratios of close binaries and its dependence on primary mass can be explained by assuming that seed binary companions are formed by disc fragmen…

TOI-132 b: A short-period planet in the Neptune desert transiting a G-type star

Matías R. Díaz, James S. Jenkins, Davide Gandolfi +45

The Neptune desert is a feature seen in the radius-mass-period plane, whereby a notable dearth of short period, Neptune-like planets is found. Here we report the {\it TESS} discove…

Spectroscopic orbits of subsystems in multiple stars. VI

Andrei Tokovinin

Thirteen spectroscopic orbits of late-type stars are determined from the high-resolution spectra taken with the CHIRON echelle spectrometer at the 1.5-m CTIO telescope. Most (HIP 1…

Binary stars in Upper Scorpius

Andrei Tokovinin, Cesar Briceno

To address the statistics of binary stars in the 8-Myr old Upper Scorpius star formation region, we conducted speckle-interferometric survey of 614 association members more massive…

Speckle observations and orbits of multiple stars

Andrei Tokovinin, Mark E. Everett, Elliott P. Horch +2

We report results of speckle-interferometric monitoring of visual hierarchical systems using the newly commissioned instrument NESSI at the 3.5-m WIYN telescope. During one year, 3…

SOAR TESS Survey. I: Sculpting of TESS planetary systems by stellar companions

Carl Ziegler, Andrei Tokovinin, Cesar Briceno +3

TESS is finding transiting planet candidates around bright, nearby stars across the entire sky. The large field-of-view, however, results in low spatial resolution, therefore multi…

Speckle interferometry at SOAR in 2018

Andrei Tokovinin, Brian D. Mason, Rene A. Mendez +2

The results of speckle interferometric observations at the 4.1 m Southern Astrophysical Research Telescope (SOAR) in 2018 are given, totaling 3097 measurements of 2427 resolved pai…

Spectroscopic orbits of nearby stars

J. Sperauskas, V. Deveikis, A. Tokovinin

We observed stars with variable radial velocities to determine their spectroscopic orbits. Velocities of 132 targets taken over a time span reaching 30 years are presented. They we…

Observations of red giants with suspected massive companions

Valeri V. Makarov, Andrei Tokovinin

Motivated by the existence of binary systems where a stellar-mass black hole is bound to a normal star, we selected four red giants with large radial velocity (RV) variation from t…

HD 213885b: A transiting 1-day-period super-Earth with an Earth-like composition around a bright () star unveiled by TESS

Néstor Espinoza, Rafael Brahm, Thomas Henning +60

We report the discovery of the 1.008-day, ultra-short period (USP) super-Earth HD 213885b (TOI-141b) orbiting the bright () star HD 213885 (TOI-141, TIC 403224672), detected…

Near-resonance in a system of sub-Neptunes from TESS

Samuel N. Quinn, Juliette C. Becker, Joseph E. Rodriguez +78

We report the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite () detection of a multi-planet system orbiting the K0 dwarf TOI 125. We find evidence for up to five planets, wit…

Spectroscopic orbits of subsystems in multiple stars. V

Andrei Tokovinin

Spectroscopic orbits are determined for inner subsystems in nine stellar hierachies (HIP 2863, 4974, 8353, 28796, 35261, 92929, 115272, 115552, and 117596). Their periods range fro…

An Eccentric Massive Jupiter Orbiting a Sub-Giant on a 9.5 Day Period Discovered in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite Full Frame Images

Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn, Chelsea X. Huang +71

We report the discovery of TOI-172 b from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission, a massive hot Jupiter transiting a slightly evolved G-star with a 9.48-day orbit…
