Three low-mass companions around aged stars discovered by TESS [PDF]
We report the discovery of three transiting low-mass companions to aged stars: a brown dwarf (TOI-2336b) and two objects near the hydrogen burning mass limit (TOI-1608b and TOI-2521b).

Probing the composition of sub-millisecond rotating compact stars by r-modes instability [PDF]
We investigate the implications of the r-modes instability on the composition of a compact star rotating at a sub-millisecond period. In particular, the only viable astrophysical scenario for such an object, wich might present inside the Low Mass X-ray ...

The EBLM Project V. Physical properties of ten fully convective, very-low-mass stars [PDF]
Measurements of the physical properties of stars at the lower end of the main sequence are scarce. In this context we report masses, radii and surface gravities of ten very-low-mass stars in eclipsing binary systems, with orbital periods of the order of ...

Formation and composition of planets around very low mass stars [PDF]
Context. The recent detection of planets around very low mass stars raises the question of the formation, composition, and potential habitability of these objects. Aims.

Three Statistically Validated K2 Transiting Warm Jupiter Exoplanets Confirmed as Low-mass Stars [PDF]
We have identified three K2 transiting star-planet systems, K2-51 (EPIC 202900527), K2-67 (EPIC 206155547), and K2-76 (EPIC 206432863), as stellar binaries with low-mass stellar secondaries.

TOI 694b and TIC 220568520b: Two Low-mass Companions near the Hydrogen-burning Mass Limit Orbiting Sun-like Stars [PDF]
We report the discovery of TOI 694 b and TIC 220568520 b, two low-mass stellar companions in eccentric orbits around metal-rich Sun-like stars, first detected by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS).
