    HAT-P-27b: A HOT JUPITER TRANSITING A G STAR ON A 3 DAY ORBIT
    (2011) Beky, B.; Bakos, G. A.; Hartman, J.; Torres, G.; Latham, D. W.; Jordan, A.; Arriagada, P.; Bayliss, D.; Kiss, L. L.; Kovacs, Geza; Quinn, S. N.; Marcy, G. W.; Howard, A. W.; Fischer, D. A.; Johnson, J. A.; Esquerdo, G. A.; Noyes, R. W.; Buchhave, L. A.; Sasselov, D. D.; Stefanik, R. P.; Perumpilly, G.; Lazar, J.; Papp, I.; Sari, P.
    We report the discovery of HAT-P-27b, an exoplanet transiting the moderately bright G8 dwarf star GSC 0333-00351 (V = 12.214). The orbital period is 3.039586 +/- 0.000012 days, the reference epoch of transit is 2455186.01879 +/- 0.00054 (BJD), and the transit duration is 0.0705 +/- 0.0019 days. The host star with its effective temperature 5300 +/- 90 K is somewhat cooler than the Sun and is more metal-rich with a metallicity of +0.29 +/- 0.10. Its mass is 0.94 +/- 0.04 M-circle dot and radius is 0.90(-0.04)(+0.05) R-circle dot. For the planetary companion we determine a mass of 0.660 +/- 0.033 M-J and radius of 1.038(-0.058)(+0.077) R-J. For the 30 known transiting exoplanets between 0.3 M-J and 0.8 M-J, a negative correlation between host star metallicity and planetary radius and an additional dependence of planetary radius on equilibrium temperature are confirmed at a high level of statistical significance.

    We present the discovery and characterization of a transiting sub-Neptune that orbits the nearby (28 pc) and bright (V = 8.37) K0V star HD 207897 (TOI-1611) with a 16.20-day period. This discovery is based on photometric measurements from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite mission and radial velocity (RV) observations from the SOPHIE, Automated Planet Finder, and HIRES high-precision spectrographs. We used EXOFASTv2 to model the parameters of the planet and its host star simultaneously, combining photometric and RV data to determine the planetary system parameters. We show that the planet has a radius of 2.50 +/- 0.08 R-E and a mass of either 14.4 +/- 1.6 M-E or 15.9 +/- 1.6 M-E with nearly equal probability. The two solutions correspond to two possibilities for the stellar activity period. The density accordingly is either 5.1 +/- 0.7 g cm(-3) or 5.5(-0.7)(+0.8) g cm(-3), making it one of the relatively rare dense sub-Neptunes. The existence of this dense planet at only 0.12 AU from its host star is unusual in the currently observed sub-Neptune (2 < R-E < 4) population. The most likely scenario is that this planet has migrated to its current position.

    TOI-222: a single-transit TESS candidate revealed to be a 34-d eclipsing binary with CORALIE, EulerCam, and NGTS

D.; Villanueva, S.; Wittenmyer, R. A.; Wright, D. J.; Ziegle, C.
    We report the period, eccentricity, and mass determination for the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) single-transit event candidate TOI-222, which displayed a single 3000 ppm transit in the TESS 2-min cadence data from Sector 2. We determine the orbital period via radial velocity measurements (P = 33.9 d), which allowed for ground-based photometric detection of two subsequent transits. Our data show that the companion to TOI-222 is a low-mass star, with a radius of $0.18_{-0.10}^{+0.39}$ R⊙ and a mass of 0.23 ± 0.01 M⊙. This discovery showcases the ability to efficiently discover long-period systems from TESS single-transit events using a combination of radial velocity monitoring coupled with high-precision ground-based photometry.

    Context. Long-period transiting planets provide the opportunity to better understand the formation and evolution of planetary systems. Their atmospheric properties remain largely unaltered by tidal or radiative effects of the host star, and their orbital arrangement reflects a different and less extreme migrational history compared to close-in objects. The sample of long-period exoplanets with well-determined masses and radii is still limited, but a growing number of long-period objects reveal themselves in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) data.
