Descripción
We report the detection of a hot Jupiter
({M}p={1.75}-0.17+0.14
{M}{{J}}, R p = 1.38 ± 0.04 R
J) orbiting a middle-aged star
({log}g={4.152}-0.043+0.030) in the Transiting
Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) southern continuous viewing zone
(β = ‑79.°59). We confirm the planetary nature of the
candidate TOI-150.01 using radial velocity observations from the
APOGEE-2 South spectrograph and the Carnegie Planet Finder Spectrograph,
ground-based photometric observations from the robotic Three-hundred
MilliMeter Telescope at Las Campanas Observatory, and Gaia distance
estimates. Large-scale spectroscopic surveys, such as APOGEE/APOGEE-2,
now have sufficient radial velocity precision to directly confirm the
signature of giant exoplanets, making such data sets valuable tools in
the TESS era. Continual monitoring of TOI-150 by TESS can reveal
additional planets and subsequent observations can provide insights into
planetary system architectures involving a hot Jupiter around a star
about halfway through its main-sequence life.
This Letter includes data gathered with the 6.5 m Magellan Telescopes
located at Las Campanas Observatory, Chile.

Nucleosíntesis y procesos moleculares en los últimos estados de la evolución estelar
Las estrellas de masa baja e intermedia (M < 8 masas solares, Ms) representan la mayoría de estrellas en el Cosmos y terminan sus vidas en la Rama Asintótica de las Gigantes (AGB) - justo antes de formar Nebulosas Planetarias (NPs) - cuando experimentan procesos nucleosintéticos y moleculares complejos. Las estrellas AGB son importantes
