We present the discovery of 52 eclipsing quadruple star candidates detected in TESS Full Frame Image eleanor data by machine learning and citizen scientists. The uniformly-vetted a…
Ten new, ultracompact triply eclipsing triple star systems
T. Borkovits, S. A. Rappaport, T. Mitnyan +15
We have identified more than a hundred close triply eclipsing hierarchical triple star systems from data taken with the space telescope TESS. Many of them have outer periods less t…
The HD 60779 Planetary System: A Transiting Sub-Neptune on a 30-day Orbit and a More Massive Outer World
Victoria DiTomasso, David Charbonneau, Andrew Vanderburg +37
We present the discovery of the planetary system orbiting the bright (V = 7.2), nearby (35 pc), Sun-like star HD 60779, which has a mass of 1.050 +/- 0.044 solar masses and a radiu…
The Discovery of Two Quadruple Star Systems with the Second and Third Shortest Outer Periods
Brian P. Powell, Guillermo Torres, Veselin B. Kostov +12
We present the discovery of two quadruple star systems -- TIC 285853156 and TIC 392229331 -- each consisting of two bound eclipsing binary stars. Among the most compact quadruples…
