Newly identified compact hierarchical triple system candidates using Gaia DR3
Donát R. Czavalinga, Tibor Mitnyan, Saul A. Rappaport +5
Aims. We introduce a novel way to identify new compact hierarchical triple stars by exploiting the huge potential of Gaia DR3 and also its future data releases. We aim to increase…
A Population of Dipper Stars from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite Mission
Benjamin K. Capistrant, Melinda Soares-Furtado, Andrew Vanderburg +12
Dipper stars are a classification of young stellar objects that exhibit dimming variability in their light curves, dropping in brightness by 10-50%, likely induced by occultations…
TIC 114936199: A Quadruple Star System with a 12-day Outer Orbit Eclipse
Brian P. Powell, Saul A. Rappaport, Tamás Borkovits +19
We report the discovery with TESS of a remarkable quadruple star system with a 2+1+1 configuration. The two unique characteristics of this system are that (i) the inner eclipsing b…
The Visual Survey Group: A Decade of Hunting Exoplanets and Unusual Stellar Events with Space-Based Telescopes
Martti H. K. Kristiansen, Saul A. Rappaport, Andrew M. Vanderburg +9
This article presents the history of the Visual Survey Group (VSG) - a Professional-Amateur (Pro-Am) collaboration within the field of astronomy working on data from several space…
Six New Compact Triply Eclipsing Triples Found With TESS
S. A. Rappaport, T. Borkovits, R. Gagliano +21
In this work we report the discovery and analysis of six new compact triply eclipsing triple star systems found with the TESS mission: TICs 37743815, 42565581, 54060695, 178010808,…
97 Eclipsing Quadruple Star Candidates Discovered in TESS Full Frame Images
Veselin B. Kostov, Brian P. Powell, Saul A. Rappaport +17
We present a catalog of 97 uniformly-vetted candidates for quadruple star systems. The candidates were identified in TESS Full Frame Image data from Sectors 1 through 42 through a…
The TESS-Keck Survey. VIII. Confirmation of a Transiting Giant Planet on an Eccentric 261 day Orbit with the Automated Planet Finder Telescope
Paul A. Dalba, Stephen R. Kane, Diana Dragomir +72
We report the discovery of TOI-2180 b, a 2.8 giant planet orbiting a slightly evolved G5 host star. This planet transited only once in Cycle 2 of the primary Transiting…
