Microlensing (rogue planet?) · Exocomet-shaped dip · Habitable zone & size · Transit timing (TTV) · Transit duration (TDV) · Changing transit depth · Lopsided transit · Dimming beside the transit · Trojan companions (L4/L5) · More planets in the system · Self-lensing binary · Type of star

Checked 2026-10-11 16:39 on NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070, using every TESS sector of this star. All results (.json)

Notes

Probably noise or an instrument effect. Found automatically by hunt.py in TESS sector 20 (flagged in 6 sector(s)). Detection score 190.0. Not in VSX, ASAS-SN or ZTF variable catalogues at the time of the search; not in Gaia DR3's variable lists. Unchecked by hand yet: verify the period, nearby stars and a wider catalogue search. Updates: 2026-10-11 Planet check: Probably noise or an instrument effect 2026-10-11 Found by the automatic search in TESS sector 20
