SOAR TESS Survey III: Mapping the Stellar Companion Deficit around TESS Planet Candidates
Carl Ziegler, Andrei Tokovinin, César Briceño +3
We present the cumulative SOAR TESS Survey, based on HRCam speckle observations of 2,982 targets, and report 433 companion measurements obtained after Survey II. In a demographic s…
Thermal Eclipse Observation of the Young Hot Neptune AU Mic b with Spitzer
Kevin I. Collins, Peter Plavchan, Zachory Berta-Thompson +11
We present the observation of a secondary eclipse of the young hot Neptune, AU Mic b, in the infrared using the Spitzer Space Telescope. Using a primary transit from Spitzer to con…
Unraveling the Brown Dwarf Desert: Four New Discoveries and a Unifying, Period-Coded Picture
Ján Šubjak, Rafael Brahm, Jozef Lipták +30
We present four newly validated transiting brown dwarfs identified through TESS photometry and confirmed with high-precision radial velocity measurements obtained from the FEROS an…
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…
Giant Outer Transiting Exoplanet Mass (GOT 'EM) Survey. VI: Confirmation of a Long-Period Giant Planet Discovered with a Single TESS Transit
Zahra Essack, Diana Dragomir, Paul A. Dalba +81
We report the discovery and confirmation of TOI-4465 b, a , giant planet orbiting a G dwarf star at 122 pc. The planet was…
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…
Investigating the eccentricity distribution of transiting, long-period giant planets
Ahlam Alqasim, Teruyuki Hirano, Yasunori Hori +12
Eccentric giant planets are predicted to have acquired their eccentricity through two major mechanisms: the Kozai-Lidov effect or planet-planet scattering, but it is normally diffi…
GJ 238 b: A 0.57 Earth Radius Planet Orbiting an M2.5 Dwarf Star at 15.2 pc
Evan Tey, Avi Shporer, Zifan Lin +30
We report the discovery of the transiting planet GJ 238 b, with a radius of R ( times the radius of Mars) and an orbital period of 1.74 da…
Surviving in the Hot Neptune Desert: The Discovery of the Ultra-Hot Neptune TOI-3261b
Emma Nabbie, Chelsea X. Huang, Jennifer A. Burt +45
The recent discoveries of Neptune-sized ultra-short period planets (USPs) challenge existing planet formation theories. It is unclear whether these residents of the Hot Neptune Des…
HD 21520 b: a warm sub-Neptune transiting a bright G dwarf
Molly Nies, Ismael Mireles, François Bouchy +49
We report the discovery and validation of HD 21520 b, a transiting planet found with TESS and orbiting a bright G dwarf (V=9.2, K, $R_{\star} = 1.04\pm 0.02…
TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME) X: a two-planet system in the 210 Myr MELANGE-5 Association
Pa Chia Thao, Andrew W. Mann, Madyson G. Barber +35
Young (<500 Myr) planets are critical to studying how planets form and evolve. Among these young planetary systems, multi-planet configurations are particularly useful as they prov…
Separated twins or just siblings? A multi-planet system around an M dwarf including a cool sub-Neptune
Mallory Harris, Diana Dragomir, Ismael Mireles +27
We report the discovery of two TESS sub-Neptunes orbiting the early M dwarf TOI-904 (TIC 261257684). Both exoplanets, TOI-904 b and c, were initially observed in TESS Sector 12 wit…
Cluster Difference Imaging Photometric Survey. II. TOI 837: A Young Validated Planet in IC 2602
L. G. Bouma, J. D. Hartman, R. Brahm +42
We report the discovery of TOI 837b and its validation as a transiting planet. We characterize the system using data from the NASA TESS mission, the ESA Gaia mission, ground-based…
A remnant planetary core in the hot-Neptune desert
David J. Armstrong, Théo A. Lopez, Vardan Adibekyan +91
The interiors of giant planets remain poorly understood. Even for the planets in the Solar System, difficulties in observation lead to large uncertainties in the properties of plan…
The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs. Two planets on the opposite sides of the radius gap transiting the nearby M dwarf LTT 3780
G. Nowak, R. Luque, H. Parviainen +97
We present the discovery and characterisation of two transiting planets observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) orbiting the nearby (d ~ 22 pc), bright (J ~ 9…
Evryscope science: exploring the potential of all-sky gigapixel-scale telescopes
Nicholas M. Law, Octavi Fors, Jeffrey Ratzloff +11
Low-cost mass-produced sensors and optics have recently made it feasible to build telescope arrays which observe the entire accessible sky simultaneously. In this article we discus…
The High-Order-Multiplicity of Unusually Wide M-dwarf Binaries: Eleven New Triple and Quadruple Systems
Nicholas M. Law, Saurav Dhital, Adam L. Kraus +2
M-dwarfs in extremely wide binary systems are very rare, and may thus have different formation processes from those found as single stars or close binaries in the field. In this pa…
Discovery of Five Very Low Mass Close Binaries, Resolved in the Visible with Lucky Imaging
N. M. Law, S. T. Hodgkin, C. D. Mackay
We survey a sample of 32 M5-M8 stars with distance < 40pc for companions with separations between 0.1 arcsec and 1.5 arcsec and with Delta m_i <5. We find five new VLM binaries wit…
