TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME). VI. An 11 Myr giant planet transiting a very-low-mass star in Lower Centaurus Crux

AW Mann, ML Wood, SP Schmidt… - The Astronomical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Mature super-Earths and sub-Neptunes are predicted to be≃ Jovian radius when younger
than 10 Myr. Thus, we expect to find 5–15 R⊕ planets around young stars even if their older …

TESS hunt for young and maturing exoplanets (THYME). III. A two-planet system in the 400 Myr Ursa major group

AW Mann, MC Johnson, A Vanderburg… - The Astronomical …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
Exoplanets can evolve significantly between birth and maturity, as their atmospheres, orbits,
and structures are shaped by their environment. Young planets (< 1 Gyr) offer an opportunity …

BM Tofflemire, AC Rizzuto, ER Newton… - The Astronomical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
The detection and characterization of young planetary systems offer a direct path to study
the processes that shape planet evolution. We report on the discovery of a sub-Neptune …

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME). IX. A 27 Myr Extended Population of Lower Centaurus Crux with a Transiting Two-planet System

ML Wood, AW Mann, MG Barber, JL Bush… - The Astronomical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We report the discovery and characterization of a nearby (∼ 85 pc), older (27±3 Myr),
distributed stellar population near Lower Centaurus Crux (LCC), initially identified by …

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME): a planet in the 45 Myr Tucana–Horologium association

ER Newton, AW Mann, BM Tofflemire… - The Astrophysical …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
Young exoplanets are snapshots of the planetary evolution process. Planets that orbit stars
in young associations are particularly important because the age of the planetary system is …

TESS giants transiting giants. II. The hottest Jupiters orbiting evolved stars

SK Grunblatt, N Saunders, M Sun… - The Astronomical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Giant planets on short-period orbits are predicted to be inflated and eventually engulfed by
their host stars. However, the detailed timescales and stages of these processes are not well …

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME). IV. Three Small Planets Orbiting a 120 Myr Old Star in the Pisces–Eridanus Stream

ER Newton, AW Mann, AL Kraus… - The Astronomical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
Young exoplanets can offer insight into the evolution of planetary atmospheres,
compositions, and architectures. We present the discovery of the young planetary system …

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME). XI. An Earth-sized Planet Orbiting a Nearby, Solar-like Host in the 400 Myr Ursa Major Moving Group

BK Capistrant, M Soares-Furtado… - The Astronomical …, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
Young terrestrial worlds are critical test beds to constrain prevailing theories of planetary

A resonant pair of warm giant planets revealed by TESS

D Kipping, D Nesvorný, J Hartman… - Monthly Notices of …, 2019 - academic.oup.com
We present the discovery of a pair of transiting giant planets using four sectors of TESS
photometry. TOI-216 is a 0.87 M⊙ dwarf orbited by two transiters with radii of 8.2 and 11.3 …
