Özet

We present the detection and validation of a small, temper ate tr ansiting exoplanet orbiting T OI-1080 every 3.9652482 (+0 . 0000014 )(-0 . 0000015 )d. The host is a quiet M4V star at 25.6 pc. The planet signal was first detect ed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite ( TESS) and validated using TESS and gr ound-based observations. B y fit ting the available light curves, the planet radius is measured to be 1.200 +/- 0.058 R circle plus and its equilibrium temperature of 368 (+12) (-10 ). K. With Near Infra Red Planet Searcher (NIRPS) radial velocities, w e are able to place a 3 sigma upper limit on the mass of TOI-1080 b of 10.7 M- circle plus. Our injection-recovery tests enable us t o discard additional transiting planets in the TOI-1080 system with radii down to 0.9 R- circle plus and periods between 0.5 and 7.7 d, and planets with radii larger than 1.4 R circle plus for periods up to 19 d. We demonstrate that it is highly amenable to characterization of its mass and putative atmosphere. In particular, we find that TOI-1080 b is an e x ceptional targ et for the ong oing JWS T + HS T Rocky Worlds DDT programme, having a priority score that is higher than four out of nine targets currently being inv estigat ed by the pr ogramme. T OI-1080 b can be added to the sample of nearby benchmark planets accessible for detailed study with JWST .
