TOI 122b and TOI 237b, two small warm planets orbiting inactive M dwarfs, found by \textit{TESS}

William C. Waalkes, Zachory K. Berta-Thompson, Karen A. Collins +39

We report the discovery and validation of TOI 122b and TOI 237b, two warm planets transiting inactive M dwarfs observed by \textit{TESS}. Our analysis shows TOI 122b has a radius o…

The High-Energy Radiation Environment Around a 10 Gyr M Dwarf: Habitable at Last?

Kevin France, Girish Duvvuri, Hilary Egan +20

High levels of X-ray and UV activity on young M dwarfs may drive rapid atmospheric escape on temperate, terrestrial planets orbiting within the liquid water habitable zone. However…
