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…
HD 183579b: A Warm Sub-Neptune Transiting a Solar Twin Detected by TESS
Tianjun Gan, Megan Bedell, Sharon Xuesong Wang +48
We report the discovery and characterization of a transiting warm sub-Neptune planet around the nearby bright ( mag, mag) solar twin HD 183579, delivered by the Tr…
Populating the brown dwarf and stellar boundary: Five stars with transiting companions near the hydrogen-burning mass limit
Nolan Grieves, François Bouchy, Monika Lendl +52
We report the discovery of five transiting companions near the hydrogen-burning mass limit in close orbits around main sequence stars originally identified by the Transiting Exopla…
An Automated Bolide Detection Pipeline for GOES GLM
Jeffrey C. Smith, Robert L. Morris, Clemens Rumpf +4
The Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) instrument onboard the GOES 16 and 17 satellites has been shown to be capable of detecting bolides (bright meteors) in Earth's atmosphere.…
Warm Jupiters in TESS Full-Frame Images: A Catalog and Observed Eccentricity Distribution for Year 1
Jiayin Dong, Chelsea X. Huang, Rebekah I. Dawson +57
Warm Jupiters -- defined here as planets larger than 6 Earth radii with orbital periods of 8--200 days -- are a key missing piece in our understanding of how planetary systems form…
TOI-1431b/MASCARA-5b: A Highly Irradiated Ultra-Hot Jupiter Orbiting One of the Hottest & Brightest Known Exoplanet Host Stars
Brett Christopher Addison, Emil Knudstrup, Ian Wong +70
We present the discovery of a highly irradiated and moderately inflated ultra-hot Jupiter, TOI-1431b/MASCARA-5b (HD 201033b), first detected by NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey S…
The TESS Objects of Interest Catalog from the TESS Prime Mission
Natalia M. Guerrero, S. Seager, Chelsea X. Huang +102
We present 2,241 exoplanet candidates identified with data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) during its two-year prime mission. We list these candidates in the…
TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME) IV: Three small planets orbiting a 120 Myr-old star in the Pisces--Eridanus stream
Elisabeth R. Newton, Andrew W. Mann, Adam L. Kraus +50
Young exoplanets can offer insight into the evolution of planetary atmospheres, compositions, and architectures. We present the discovery of the young planetary system TOI 451 (TIC…
A hot mini-Neptune in the radius valley orbiting solar analogue HD 110113
H. P. Osborn, D. J. Armstrong, L. D. Nielsen +53
We report the discovery of HD 110113 b (TOI-755.01), a transiting mini-Neptune exoplanet on a 2.5-day orbit around the solar-analogue HD 110113 (Teff = 5730K). Using TESS photometr…
