TL;DR: The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) as mentioned in this paper will discover thousands of exoplanets in orbit around the brightest stars in the sky, including Earth-sized to gas giants, around a wide range of stellar types and orbital distances.

TL;DR: High-contrast imaging reveals a series of five large-scale features in the southeast side of the debris disk that appear to move away from the star at projected speeds of 4–10 kilometres per second, suggesting highly eccentric or unbound trajectories if they are associated with physical entities.

TL;DR: In this paper, the H-band polarized intensity (PI) images of the circumstellar disk around HD 169142 were used to detect the presence of a protoplanet in the TZ.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the fragmentation and collapse properties of the dense gas during the onset of high-mass star formation and proposed that the likely origin of these spectral properties may be the global collapse of the original gas clump that results in multiple spectral components along each line of sight.

TL;DR: In this paper, the first spatially resolved polarized scattered light H-band detection of the DoAr 28 transitional disk was presented, where the authors constructed a grid of Monte Carlo Radiative Transfer models of the system, and their best fit models utilize a modestly inclined (50 degrees), 0.01 solar mass disk that has a partially depleted inner gap from the dust sublimation radius out to approximately 8 AU.
