ExoMiner: A Highly Accurate and Explainable Deep Learning Classifier that Validates 301 New Exoplanets

Hamed Valizadegan, Miguel Martinho, Laurent S. Wilkens +10

The kepler and TESS missions have generated over 100,000 potential transit signals that must be processed in order to create a catalog of planet candidates. During the last few yea…

GJ 367b: A dense ultra-short period sub-Earth planet transiting a nearby red dwarf star

Kristine W. F. Lam, Szilárd Csizmadia, Nicola Astudillo-Defru +75

Ultra-short-period (USP) exoplanets have orbital periods shorter than one day. Precise masses and radii of USPs could provide constraints on their unknown formation and evolution p…

TOI-2076 and TOI-1807: Two young, comoving planetary systems within 50 pc identified by TESS that are ideal candidates for further follow-up

Christina Hedges, Alex Hughes, Steven Giacalone +42

We report the discovery of two planetary systems around comoving stars; TOI-2076 (TIC 27491137) and TOI-1807 (TIC 180695581). TOI-2076 is a nearby (41.9 pc) multi-planetary system…

The LHS 1678 System: Two Earth-Sized Transiting Planets and an Astrometric Companion Orbiting an M Dwarf Near the Convective Boundary at 20 pc

Michele L. Silverstein, Joshua E. Schlieder, Thomas Barclay +48

We present the TESS discovery of the LHS 1678 (TOI-696) exoplanet system, comprised of two approximately Earth-sized transiting planets and a likely astrometric brown dwarf orbitin…

The TESS Mission Target Selection Procedure

Michael Fausnaugh, Ed Morgan, Roland Vanderspek +61

We describe the target selection procedure by which stars are selected for 2-minute and 20-second observations by TESS. We first list the technical requirements of the TESS instrum…

TOI-1518b: A Misaligned Ultra-hot Jupiter with Iron in its Atmosphere

Samuel H. C. Cabot, Aaron Bello-Arufe, João M. Mendonça +36

We present the discovery of TOI-1518b -- an ultra-hot Jupiter orbiting a bright star . The transiting planet is confirmed using high-resolution optical transmission spect…
