Ground-Based Reconnaissance Observations of 21 Exoplanet Atmospheres with the Exoplanet Transmission Spectroscopy Imager
Ryan J. Oelkers, Luke M. Schmidt, Erika Cook +24
One of the most prolific methods of studying exoplanet atmospheres is transmission spectroscopy, which measures the difference between the depth of an exoplanet's transit signal at…
The GAPS Programme at TNG. LXV. Precise density measurement of TOI-1430 b, a young planet with an evaporating atmosphere
D. Nardiello, J. M. Akana Murphy, R. Spinelli +34
Small-sized exoplanets in tight orbits around young stars (10-1000 Myr) give us the opportunity to investigate the mechanisms that led to their formation, the evolution of their ph…
TOI-757 b: an eccentric transiting mini-Neptune on a 17.5-d orbit
A. Alqasim, N. Grieves, N. M. Rosário +129
We report the spectroscopic confirmation and fundamental properties of TOI-757 b, a mini-Neptune on a 17.5-day orbit transiting a bright star ( mag) discovered by the TESS…
Another Shipment of Six Short-Period Giant Planets from TESS
Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn, Andrew Vanderburg +119
We present the discovery and characterization of six short-period, transiting giant planets from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) -- TOI-1811 (TIC 376524552), TO…
TESS Delivers Five New Hot Giant Planets Orbiting Bright Stars from the Full Frame Images
Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn, George Zhou +115
We present the discovery and characterization of five hot and warm Jupiters -- TOI-628 b (TIC 281408474; HD 288842), TOI-640 b (TIC 147977348), TOI-1333 b (TIC 395171208, BD+47 352…
Two Massive Jupiters in Eccentric Orbits from the TESS Full Frame Images
Mma Ikwut-Ukwa, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn +43
We report the discovery of two short-period massive giant planets from NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). Both systems, TOI-558 (TIC 207110080) and TOI-559 (TIC 2…
KELT-24b: A 5M Planet on a 5.6 day Well-Aligned Orbit around the Young V=8.3 F-star HD 93148
Joseph E. Rodriguez, Jason D. Eastman, George Zhou +76
We present the discovery of KELT-24 b, a massive hot Jupiter orbiting a bright (V=8.3 mag, K=7.2 mag) young F-star with a period of 5.6 days. The host star, KELT-24 (HD 93148), has…
TESS Habitable Zone Star Catalog
L. Kaltenegger, J. Pepper, K. Stassun +1
We present the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) Habitable Zone Stars Catalog, a list of 1822 nearby stars with a TESS magnitude brighter than T = 12 and reliable distan…
An Eccentric Massive Jupiter Orbiting a Sub-Giant on a 9.5 Day Period Discovered in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite Full Frame Images
Joseph E. Rodriguez, Samuel N. Quinn, Chelsea X. Huang +71
We report the discovery of TOI-172 b from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission, a massive hot Jupiter transiting a slightly evolved G-star with a 9.48-day orbit…
Stellar Flares from the First Tess Data Release: Exploring a New Sample of M-dwarfs
Maximilian N. Günther, Zhuchang Zhan, Sara Seager +21
We perform a study of stellar flares for the 24,809 stars observed with 2 minute cadence during the first two months of the TESS mission. Flares may erode exoplanets' atmospheres a…
KELT-20b: A giant planet with a period of P~ 3.5 days transiting the V~ 7.6 early A star HD 185603
Michael B. Lund, Joseph E. Rodriguez, George Zhou +46
We report the discovery of KELT-20b, a hot Jupiter transiting a V~7.6 early A star with an orbital period of P~3.47 days. We identified the initial transit signal in KELT-North sur…
