TESS observations of Cepheid stars: first light results
E. Plachy, A. Pál, A. Bódi +33
We present the first analysis of Cepheid stars observed by the TESS space mission in Sectors 1 to 5. Our sample consists of 25 pulsators: ten fundamental mode, three overtone and t…
TOI 540 b: A Planet Smaller than Earth Orbiting a Nearby Rapidly Rotating Low-mass Star
Kristo Ment, Jonathan Irwin, David Charbonneau +20
We present the discovery of TOI 540 b, a hot planet slightly smaller than Earth orbiting the low-mass star 2MASS J05051443-4756154. The planet has an orbital period of $P = 1.23914…
Discovery of a hot, transiting, Earth-sized planet and a second temperate, non-transiting planet around the M4 dwarf GJ 3473 (TOI-488)
J. Kemmer, S. Stock, D. Kossakowski +93
We present the confirmation and characterisation of GJ 3473 b (G 50--16, TOI-488.01), a hot Earth-sized planet orbiting an M4 dwarf star, whose transiting signal ($P=1.1980035\pm0.…
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…
An unusually low density ultra-short period super-Earth and three mini-Neptunes around the old star TOI-561
G. Lacedelli, L. Malavolta, L. Borsato +38
Based on HARPS-N radial velocities (RVs) and TESS photometry, we present a full characterisation of the planetary system orbiting the late G dwarf TOI-561. After the identification…
KELT-9 b's Asymmetric TESS Transit Caused by Rapid Stellar Rotation and Spin-Orbit Misalignment
John P. Ahlers, Marshall C. Johnson, Keivan G Stassun +19
KELT-9 b is an ultra hot Jupiter transiting a rapidly rotating, oblate early-A-type star in a polar orbit. We model the effect of rapid stellar rotation on KELT-9 b's transit light…
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…
A remnant planetary core in the hot-Neptune desert
David J. Armstrong, Théo A. Lopez, Vardan Adibekyan +91
The interiors of giant planets remain poorly understood. Even for the planets in the Solar System, difficulties in observation lead to large uncertainties in the properties of plan…
The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs. Two planets on the opposite sides of the radius gap transiting the nearby M dwarf LTT 3780
G. Nowak, R. Luque, H. Parviainen +97
We present the discovery and characterisation of two transiting planets observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) orbiting the nearby (d ~ 22 pc), bright (J ~ 9…
