An extremely low-density and temperate giant exoplanet
A. Santerne, L. Malavolta, M. R. Kosiarek +68
Transiting extrasolar planets are key objects in the study of the formation, migration, and evolution of planetary systems. In particular, the exploration of the atmospheres of gia…
Homogeneous Analysis of Hot Earths: Masses, Sizes, and Compositions
Fei Dai, Kento Masuda, Joshua N. Winn +1
Terrestrial planets have been found orbiting Sun-like stars with extremely short periods --- some as short as 4 hours. These "ultra-short-period planets" or "hot Earths" are so str…
TOI-503: The first known brown dwarf-Am star binary from the TESS mission
Ján Šubjak, Rishikesh Sharma, Theron W. Carmichael +76
We report the discovery of an intermediate-mass transiting brown dwarf, TOI-503b, from the TESS mission. TOI-503b is the first brown dwarf discovered by TESS and orbits a metallic-…
It takes two planets in resonance to tango around K2-146
Kristine W. F. Lam, Judith Korth, Kento Masuda +51
K2-146 is a cool, 0.358 M_sun dwarf that was found to host a mini-Neptune with a 2.67-days period. The planet exhibited strong transit timing variations (TTVs) of greater than 30 m…
The Random Transiter -- EPIC 249706694/HD 139139
S. Rappaport, A. Vanderburg, M. H. Kristiansen +16
We have identified a star, EPIC 249706694 (HD 139139), that was observed during K2 Campaign 15 with the Kepler extended mission that appears to exhibit 28 transit-like events over…
Greening of the Brown Dwarf Desert. EPIC 212036875 b -- a 51 M object in a 5 day orbit around an F7 V star
Carina M. Persson, Szilárd Csizmadia, Alexander J. Mustill +55
Our aim is to investigate the nature and formation of brown dwarfs by adding a new well-characterised object to the small sample of less than 20 transiting brown dwarfs. One brown…
