TOI-6981 b: a transiting sub-Neptune at the water ice line

Madison G. Scott, Amaury H. M. J Triaud, Emily K. Pass +42

We present TOI-6981 b, a cold (Teq= 170.0 +/-4.5 K, assuming an Earth-like albedo) sub-Neptune (Rb=2.40+/-0.10 R_oplus) on a 60.8 day orbit around around its M4-type host star (R*=…

TOI-1696 and TOI-2136: Constraining the Masses of Two Mini-Neptunes with HPF

Corey Beard, Paul Robertson, Shubham Kanodia +29

We present the validation of two planets orbiting M dwarfs, TOI-1696b and TOI-2136b. Both planets are mini-Neptunes orbiting nearby stars, making them promising prospects for atmos…

The HD 260655 system: Two rocky worlds transiting a bright M dwarf at 10 pc

R. Luque, B. J. Fulton, M. Kunimoto +64

We report the discovery of a multi-planetary system transiting the M0 V dwarf HD 260655 (GJ 239, TOI-4599). The system consists of at least two transiting planets, namely HD 260655…

TOI-3714 b and TOI-3629 b: Two gas giants transiting M dwarfs confirmed with HPF and NEID

Caleb I. Cañas, Shubham Kanodia, Chad F. Bender +36

We confirm the planetary nature of two gas giants discovered by TESS to transit M dwarfs. TOI-3714 () is an M2 dwarf hosting a hot Jupiter ($M_p=0.70 \pm 0.03~\ma…
