TOI-4616 b: a benchmark Earth-sized planet transiting a nearby M4 dwarf
F. Zong Lang, B. O. Demory, Y. Gomez Maqueo Chew +44
Rocky exoplanets are particularly abundant around M-type stars. Their small radii and low luminosities provide favourable conditions for detecting transiting terrestrial planets an…
TOI-1080 b: a temperate, rocky planet orbiting a quiet M4V host
Y. Gómez Maqueo Chew, G. Dransfield, K. Barkaoui +41
We present the detection and validation of a small, temperate transiting exoplanet orbiting TOI-1080 every 3.9652482 days. The host is a quiet M4V star…
Hidden Gems in TESS: sherlock finds two new rocky planets around nearby M dwarfs
M. Timmermans, M. Dévora-Pajares, F. J. Pozuelos +25
The Hidden Gems project searches the TESS data for additional planets transiting low-mass stars in confirmed systems. Our goal is to identify planet candidates that are below the d…
Astrometric Reconnaissance of Exoplanetary Systems (ARES). I. Methodology validation with HST point-source images of Proxima Centauri
M. Libralato, L. Bedin, A. Burgasser
We present the first results of the Astrometric Reconnaissance of Exoplanetary Systems (ARES) project, aimed at validating and characterizing candidate exoplanets around the neares…
MANGOS II: Five new giant planets orbiting low-mass stars
G. Dransfield, M. Timmermans, D. Sebastian +47
Giant planets orbiting low-mass stars on short orbits present a conundrum, as in the most extreme cases their existence cannot be reconciled with current models of core accretion.…
TOI-1743 b, TOI-5799 b, TOI-5799 c and TOI-6223 b: TESS discovery and validation of four super-Earth to Neptune-sized planets around M dwarfs
S. Yalçınkaya, K. Barkaoui, Ö. Baştürk +62
We present the discovery by the TESS mission of one transiting Neptune-sized planet, TOI-6223 b and two transiting super-Earths, TOI-1743 b and TOI-5799 b. We validate these planet…
TOI-2407 b: a warm Neptune in the desert
C. Janó Muñoz, M. J. Hooton, P. P. Pedersen +22
We present the validation of TOI-2407 b, a warm Neptune-sized planet with a radius of 4.26 0.26 R, orbiting an early M-type star with a period of 2.7 days and an equ…
TOI-6508b: A massive transiting brown dwarf orbiting a low-mass star
K. Barkaoui, D. Sebastian, S. Zúñiga-Fernández +44
We report the discovery of a transiting brown dwarf orbiting a low-mass star, TOI-6508b. Today, only ~50 transiting brown dwarfs have been discovered. TOI-6508b was first detected…
TOI-2015b: a sub-Neptune in strong gravitational interaction with an outer non-transiting planet
K. Barkaoui, J. Korth, E. Gaidos +119
TOI-2015 is a known exoplanetary system around an M4 dwarf star, consisting of a transiting sub-Neptune planet in a 3.35-day orbital period, TOI-2015b, accompanied by a non-transit…
TESS discovery of two super-Earths orbiting the M-dwarf stars TOI-6002 and TOI-5713 near the radius valley
M. Ghachoui, B. V. Rackham, M. Dévora-Pajares +45
We present the validation of two TESS super-Earth candidates transiting the mid-M dwarfs TOI-6002 and TOI-5713 every 10.90 and 10.44 days, respectively. The first star (TOI-6002) i…
Three short-period Earth-sized planets around M dwarfs discovered by TESS: TOI-5720b, TOI-6008b and TOI-6086b
K. Barkaoui, R. P. Schwarz, N. Narita +53
One of the main goals of the NASA's TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) mission is the discovery of Earth-like planets around nearby M-dwarf stars. Here, we present the di…
TOI-4336 A b: A temperate sub-Neptune ripe for atmospheric characterization in a nearby triple M-dwarf system
M. Timmermans, G. Dransfield, M. Gillon +54
Small planets transiting bright nearby stars are essential to our understanding of the formation and evolution of exoplanetary systems. However, few constitute prime targets for at…
HST astrometry of the closest Brown Dwarfs -- II. Improved parameters and constraints on a third body
L. R. Bedin, J. Dietrich, A. J. Burgasser +5
Located at less than 2pc away, Luhman16AB (WISE.J104915.57-531906.1) is the closest pair of brown dwarfs and third closest `stellar' system to Earth. An exoplanet candidate in the…
