High Tide or Riptide on the Cosmic Shoreline? A Water-Rich Atmosphere or Stellar Contamination for the Warm Super-Earth GJ~486b from JWST Observations
Sarah E. Moran, Kevin B. Stevenson, David K. Sing +21
Planets orbiting M-dwarf stars are prime targets in the search for rocky exoplanet atmospheres. The small size of M dwarfs renders their planets exceptional targets for transmissio…
A Search for Transiting Exocomets in TESS Sectors 1-26
Azib Norazman, Grant M. Kennedy, Ann Marie Cody +3
We present a search for single photometric exocomet transits using a magnitude-limited sample of stars observed by the TESS primary mission. These events are asymmetric, with a sha…
The TESS Ten Thousand Catalog: 10,001 uniformly-vetted and -validated Eclipsing Binary Stars detected in Full-Frame Image data by machine learning and analyzed by citizen scientists
Veselin B. Kostov, Brian P. Powell, Aline U. Fornear +36
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has surveyed nearly the entire sky in Full-Frame Image mode with a time resolution of 200 seconds to 30 minutes and a temporal base…
Short-period Heartbeat Binaries from TESS Full-Frame Images
Siddhant Solanki, Agnieszka M. Cieplak, Jeremy Schnittman +9
We identify short-period ( days) binary systems in the TESS data, of which are heartbeat binaries (HB). The sample is mostly a mix of A and B-type stars…
Short-Period Variables in TESS Full-Frame Image Light Curves Identified via Convolutional Neural Networks
Greg Olmschenk, Richard K. Barry, Stela Ishitani Silva +9
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission measured light from stars in ~85% of the sky throughout its two-year primary mission, resulting in millions of TESS 30-minu…
