TL;DR: The detection of a transiting planet around π Men (HD 39091), using data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), is reported, confirming the existence of the planet and leading to a mass determination of 4.82±0.85 M ⊕.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the detection of a transiting planet around the star HD 39091, which was already known to host a Jovian planet on a highly eccentric, 57-year orbit and has a size of $204\pm 005$ $R_\oplus$ and an orbital period of 627 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
Weighing Galaxy Clusters with Gas. II. On the Origin of Hydrostatic Mass Bias in ΛCDM Galaxy Clusters
TL;DR: In this paper, a large, mass-limited sample of massive galaxy clusters from a high-resolution hydrodynamical cosmological simulation is used to show that acceleration of gas introduces biases in the hydrostatic mass estimate of galaxy clusters.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Apparently Decaying Orbit of WASP-12b
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented new transit and occultation times for the hot Jupiter WASP-12b, which are compatible with a constant period derivative: ms yr−1 and.

TL;DR: In this article, a hot Earth was detected around LHS 3844, an M-dwarf located 15 pc away from Earth, with a radius of 1.303 ± 0.022 R⊕ and orbits the star every 11 hr.
