K2-19b and c are in a 3:2 Commensurability but out of Resonance: A Challenge to Planet Assembly by Convergent Migration

Erik A. Petigura, John Livingston, Konstantin Batygin +11

K2-19b and c were among the first planets discovered by NASA's K2 mission and together stand in stark contrast with the physical and orbital properties of the solar system planets.…

Four newborn planets transiting the young solar analog V1298 Tau

Trevor J. David, Erik A. Petigura, Rodrigo Luger +4

Exoplanets orbiting pre-main sequence stars are laboratories for studying planet evolution processes, including atmospheric loss, orbital migration, and radiative cooling. V1298 Ta…

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…

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…
