TOI-1859b: A 64-Day Warm Jupiter on an Eccentric and Misaligned Orbit
Jiayin Dong, Songhu Wang, Malena Rice +31
Warm Jupiters are close-in giant planets with relatively large planet-star separations (i.e., ). Given their weak tidal interactions with their host stars, meas…
Three Saturn-mass planets transiting F-type stars revealed with TESS and HARPS
Angelica Psaridi, François Bouchy, Monika Lendl +62
While the sample of confirmed exoplanets continues to increase, the population of transiting exoplanets around early-type stars is still limited. These planets allow us to investig…
Multi-epoch detections of the extended atmosphere and transmission spectra of KELT-9b with a 1.5 m telescope
Nataliea Lowson, George Zhou, Duncan J. Wright +10
Irradiated Jovian atmospheres are complex, dynamic, and can undergo temporal variations due to the close proximity of their parent stars. Of the Jovian planets that have been catal…
A Second Earth-Sized Planet in the Habitable Zone of the M Dwarf, TOI-700
Emily A. Gilbert, Andrew Vanderburg, Joseph E. Rodriguez +29
We report the discovery of TOI-700 e, a 0.95 R planet residing in the Optimistic Habitable Zone (HZ) of its host star. This discovery was enabled by multiple years of moni…
Identifying Exoplanets with Deep Learning. V. Improved Light Curve Classification for TESS Full Frame Image Observations
Evan Tey, Dan Moldovan, Michelle Kunimoto +8
The TESS mission produces a large amount of time series data, only a small fraction of which contain detectable exoplanetary transit signals. Deep learning techniques such as neura…
TESS Discovery of Twin Planets near 2:1 Resonance around Early M-Dwarf TOI 4342
Evan Tey, Chelsea X. Huang, Michelle Kunimoto +28
With data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), we showcase improvements to the MIT Quick-Look Pipeline (QLP) through the discovery and validation of a multi-plane…
