A close outer companion to the ultra-hot Jupiter TOI-2109 b?
J. -V. Harre, A. M. S. Smith, S. C. C. Barros +86
Hot Jupiters with close-by planetary companions are rare, with only a handful of them having been discovered so far. This could be due to their suggested dynamical histories, leadi…

TESS discovery of two super-Earths orbiting the M-dwarf stars TOI-6002 and TOI-5713 near the radius valley
M. Ghachoui, B. V. Rackham, M. Dévora-Pajares +45
We present the validation of two TESS super-Earth candidates transiting the mid-M dwarfs TOI-6002 and TOI-5713 every 10.90 and 10.44 days, respectively. The first star (TOI-6002) i…
Validation of up to seven TESS planet candidates through multi-colour transit photometry using MuSCAT2 data
A. Peláez-Torres, E. Esparza-Borges, E. Pallé +62
The TESS mission searches for transiting exoplanets by monitoring the brightness of hundreds of thousands of stars across the entire sky. M-type planet hosts are ideal targets for…
Low abundances of TiO and VO on the Dayside of KELT-9 b: Insights from Ground-Based Photometric Observations
Yuya Hayashi, Norio Narita, Akihiko Fukui +21
We present ground-based photometric observations of secondary eclipses of the hottest known planet KELT-9b using MuSCAT2 and Sinistro. We detect secondary eclipse signals in an…
TOI-1408: Discovery and Photodynamical Modeling of a Small Inner Companion to a Hot Jupiter Revealed by TTVs
Judith Korth, Priyanka Chaturvedi, Hannu Parviainen +60
We report the discovery and characterization of a small planet, TOI-1408 c, on a 2.2-day orbit located interior to a previously known hot Jupiter, TOI-1408 b ( d, $M=1.86\p…
Climate Change in Hell: Long-Term Variation in Transits of the Evaporating Planet K2-22b
E. Gaidos, H. Parviainen, E. Esparza-Borges +9
Context: Rocky planets on ultra-short period orbits can have surface magma oceans and rock-vapour atmospheres in which dust can condense. Observations of that dust can inform about…
Three short-period Earth-sized planets around M dwarfs discovered by TESS: TOI-5720b, TOI-6008b and TOI-6086b
K. Barkaoui, R. P. Schwarz, N. Narita +53
One of the main goals of the NASA's TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) mission is the discovery of Earth-like planets around nearby M-dwarf stars. Here, we present the di…
Gliese 12 b: A temperate Earth-sized planet at 12 pc ideal for atmospheric transmission spectroscopy
M. Kuzuhara, A. Fukui, J. H. Livingston +103
Recent discoveries of Earth-sized planets transiting nearby M dwarfs have made it possible to characterize the atmospheres of terrestrial planets via follow-up spectroscopic observ…
The Discovery and Follow-up of Four Transiting Short-period Sub-Neptunes Orbiting M dwarfs
Y. Hori, A. Fukui, T. Hirano +100
Sub-Neptunes with are intermediate in size between rocky planets and Neptune-sized planets. The orbital properties and bulk compositions of transiting sub-Neptunes pr…
The fast X-ray transient EP240315a: a z ~ 5 gamma-ray burst in a Lyman continuum leaking galaxy
Andrew J. Levan, Peter G. Jonker, Andrea Saccardi +73
The nature of the minute-to-hour long Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) localised by telescopes such as Chandra, Swift, and XMM-Newton remains mysterious, with numerous models suggested…
Detection of Na in the atmosphere of the hot Jupiter HAT-P-55b
Huiyi Kang, Guo Chen, Chengzi Jiang +6
The spectral signatures of optical absorbers, when combined with those of infrared molecules, play a critical role in constraining the cloud properties of exoplanet atmospheres. We…
