A new window in time: a mid-infrared slit spectroscopy mode for precision time-series astronomy with JWST/MIRI
Achrene Dyrek, Taylor J. Bell, Pierre-Olivier Lagage +7
The Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) on board the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) provides Low Resolution Spectroscopy (LRS) over 5-12 um at a resolving power of R ~ 100. To date,…
Observing a 542-day transiting giant with large TTVs: The 2025 transit of HIP 41378 f and new constraints on the outer system
Pietro Leonardi, Alexandre Santerne, Luca Borsato +27
Characterizing long-period transiting exoplanets is inherently challenging due to the rarity and long duration of transit events. Yet, these systems provide unique insights into pl…
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, Ã. BaÅtürk +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…
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…
A transiting giant planet in orbit around a 0.2-solar-mass host star
Edward M. Bryant, Andrés Jordán, Joel D. Hartman +56
Planet formation models suggest that the formation of giant planets is significantly harder around low-mass stars, due to the scaling of protoplanetary disc masses with stellar mas…
Tidally Heated Sub-Neptunes, Refined Planetary Compositions, and Confirmation of a Third Planet in the TOI-1266 System
Michael Greklek-McKeon, Shreyas Vissapragada, Heather A. Knutson +38
TOI-1266 is a benchmark system of two temperate ( 450 K) sub-Neptune-sized planets orbiting a nearby M dwarf exhibiting a rare inverted architecture with a larger interior plane…
