TESS Survey Uncovers 27 New Circumbinary Planet Candidates
Researchers using NASA’s TESS mission say they have identified 27 new candidate planets orbiting binary star systems, using a detection method designed to find worlds that standard transit searches can miss.
- Researchers examined 1,590 eclipsing binary stars in TESS data.
- The team used apsidal precession to identify 27 new circumbinary planet candidates.
