  • TOI-6478 b: a cold underdense Neptune transiting a fully convective M dwarf from the thick disc
    Growing numbers of exoplanet detections continue to reveal the diverse nature of planetary systems. Planet formation around late-type M dwarfs is of particular interest. These systems provide practical laboratories to measure exoplanet occurrence rates for M dwarfs, thus testing how the outcomes of planet formation scale with host mass, and how

  • Tidally Heated Sub-Neptunes, Refined Planetary Compositions, and Confirmation of a Third Planet in the TOI-1266 System
    TOI-1266 is a benchmark system of two temperate (<450 K) sub-Neptune-sized planets orbiting a nearby M dwarf exhibiting a rare inverted architecture with a larger interior planet. In this study, we characterize transit timing variations (TTVs) in the TOI-1266 system using high-precision ground-based follow-up and new TESS data. We confirm the

  • The TOI-700 System at 5 Years: New Radial Velocity Mass Measurements and Updated Transit Fits
    The TOI-700 system was discovered in 2020 using data from NASA's TESS mission. At that time, there were three known planets, including TOI-700 d, the first Habitable Zone planet from TESS. In 2023, a fourth planet was discovered in the system, TOI-700 e, orbiting in the stars Optimistic Habitable Zone. Now, five years after its initial discovery

  • The Rise of Faint, Red Active Galactic Nuclei at z &gt; 4: A Sample of Little Red Dots in the JWST Extragalactic Legacy Fields
    We present a sample of 341 "little red dots" (LRDs) spanning the redshift range z ∼ 2–11 using data from the CEERS, PRIMER, JADES, UNCOVER, and NGDEEP surveys. Unlike past use of color indices to identify LRDs, we employ continuum slope fitting using shifting bandpasses to sample the same rest-frame emission blueward and redward of the Balmer break

  • The properties of the obscuring material of a sample of active galactic nuclei from mid-IR and X-ray simultaneous fitting
    Context. Over ten mid-infrared (mid-IR) and X-ray models are currently attempting to describe the nuclear obscuring material of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), but many questions remain unresolved. Aims. This study aims to determine the physical parameters of the obscuring material in nearby AGNs and explore their relationship with nuclear activity

  • The Pristine survey: XXVII. The extremely metal-poor stream C-19 stretches over more than 100 degrees
    The discovery of the most metal-poor stream, C-19, provides us with a fossil record of a stellar structure born very soon after the big bang. In this work, we search for new C-19 members throughout the sky by combining two complementary stream-searching algorithms, STREAMFINDER and StarGO, and utilizing low-metallicity star samples from the
