TOI-3362b: A Proto-Hot Jupiter Undergoing High-Eccentricity Tidal Migration

Jiayin Dong, Chelsea X. Huang, George Zhou +39

High-eccentricity tidal migration is a possible way for giant planets to be emplaced in short-period orbits. If it commonly operates, one would expect to catch proto-Hot Jupiters o…

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…

TESS Input Catalog versions 8.1 and 8.2: Phantoms in the 8.0 Catalog and How to Handle Them

Martin Paegert, Keivan G. Stassun, Karen A. Collins +5

We define various types of "phantom" stars that may appear in the TESS Input Catalog (TIC), and provide examples and lists of currently known cases. We present a methodology that c…

Hot planets around cool stars -- two short-period mini-Neptunes transiting the late K-dwarf TOI-1260

I. Y. Georgieva, C. M. Persson, O. Barragán +56

We present the discovery and characterization of two sub-Neptunes in close orbits, as well as a tentative outer planet of a similar size, orbiting TOI-1260 - a low metallicity K6V…

Two Bright M Dwarfs Hosting Ultra-Short-Period Super-Earths with Earth-like Compositions

Teruyuki Hirano, John H. Livingston, Akihiko Fukui +58

We present observations of two bright M dwarfs (TOI-1634 and TOI-1685: ) hosting ultra-short period (USP) planets, identified by the TESS mission. The two stars are simi…
