TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the discovery and characterisation of two transiting planets observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) orbiting the nearby (d ~ 22 pc), bright (J ~ 9 mag) M3.5 dwarf LTT 3780 (TOI-732) via ground-based photometry and determined their masses using precise radial velocities measured with the CARMENES spectrograph.
