TESS Science Processing Operations Center FFI Target List Products
Douglas A. Caldwell, Peter Tenenbaum, Joseph D. Twicken +7
We report the delivery to the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes of target pixel and light curve files for up to 160,000 targets selected from full-frame images (FFI) for each T…
The Occurrence of Rocky Habitable Zone Planets Around Solar-Like Stars from Kepler Data
Steve Bryson, Michelle Kunimoto, Ravi K. Kopparapu +79
We present occurrence rates for rocky planets in the habitable zones (HZ) of main-sequence dwarf stars based on the Kepler DR25 planet candidate catalog and Gaia-based stellar prop…
Spitzer Reveals Evidence of Molecular Absorption in the Atmosphere of the Hot Neptune LTT 9979b
Diana Dragomir, Ian J. M. Crossfield, Bjorn Benneke +27
Non-rocky sub-jovian exoplanets in high irradiation environments are rare. LTT 9979b, also known as TESS Object of Interest (TOI) 193.01, is one of the few such planets discovered…
Measuring Transit Signal Recovery in the Kepler Pipeline IV: Completeness of the DR25 Planet Candidate catalog
Jessie L. Christiansen, Bruce D. Clarke, Christopher J. Burke +12
In this work we empirically measure the detection efficiency of Kepler pipeline used to create the final Kepler Threshold Crossing Event (TCE; Twicken et al. 2016) and planet candi…
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 Giant Planet Candidate Transiting a White Dwarf
Andrew Vanderburg, Saul A. Rappaport, Siyi Xu +61
Astronomers have discovered thousands of planets outside the solar system, most of which orbit stars that will eventually evolve into red giants and then into white dwarfs. During…
TOI-824 b: A New Planet on the Lower Edge of the Hot Neptune Desert
Jennifer A. Burt, Louise D. Nielsen, Samuel N. Quinn +54
We report the detection of a transiting hot Neptune exoplanet orbiting TOI-824 (SCR J1448-5735), a nearby (d = 64 pc) K4V star, using data from the \textit{Transiting Exoplanet Sur…
TKS III: A Stellar Obliquity Measurement of TOI-1726 c
Fei Dai, Arpita Roy, Benjamin Fulton +43
We report the measurement of a spectroscopic transit of TOI-1726 c, one of two planets transiting a G-type star with = 6.9 in the Ursa Major Moving Group (400 Myr). With…
TOI 694 b and TIC 220568520 b: Two Low-Mass Companions Near the Hydrogen Burning Mass Limit Orbiting Sun-like Stars
Ismael Mireles, Avi Shporer, Nolan Grieves +40
We report the discovery of TOI 694 b and TIC 220568520 b, two low-mass stellar companions in eccentric orbits around metal-rich Sun-like stars, first detected by the Transiting Exo…
The K2 and TESS Synergy. I. Updated Ephemerides and Parameters for K2-114, K2-167, K2-237, and K2-261
Mma Ikwut-Ukwa, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Allyson Bieryla +30
Although the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) primary mission observed the northern and southern ecliptic hemispheres, generally avoiding the ecliptic, and the Kepler s…
PTFO 8-8695: Two Stars, Two Signals, No Planet
L. G. Bouma, J. N. Winn, G. R. Ricker +13
PTFO 8-8695 (CVSO 30) is a star in the 7-10 million year old Orion-OB1a cluster that shows brightness dips that resemble planetary transits. Although strong evidence against the pl…
The TESS-Keck Survey I: A Warm Sub-Saturn-mass Planet and a Caution about Stray Light in TESS Cameras
Paul A. Dalba, Arvind F. Gupta, Joseph E. Rodriguez +63
We report the detection of a Saturn-size exoplanet orbiting HD 332231 (TOI 1456) in light curves from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). HD 332231, an F8 dwarf star…
TOI-1338: TESS' First Transiting Circumbinary Planet
Veselin B. Kostov, Jerome A. Orosz, Adina D. Feinstein +65
We report the detection of the first circumbinary planet found by TESS. The target, a known eclipsing binary, was observed in sectors 1 through 12 at 30-minute cadence and in secto…
