DOI: 10.1093/mnras/staa2033
Abstract: $\pi$ Men hosts a transiting super Earth ($P\approx6.27$ d, $m\approx4.82$ $M_{\oplus}$, $R\approx2.04$ $R_{\oplus}$) discovered by TESS and a cold Jupiter ($P\approx2093$ d, $m \sin I\approx10.02$ $M_{\rm{Jup}}$, $e\approx0.64$) discovered from radial velocity. We use Gaia DR2… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/sty1933
Abstract: The Dharma Planet Survey (DPS) aims to monitor about 150 nearby very bright FGKM dwarfs (within 50 pc) during 2016$-$2020 for low-mass planet detection and characterization using the TOU very high resolution optical spectrograph (R$\approx$100,000,… read more here.
