TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets

TESS Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets (THYME) is an exoplanet search project.

The researchers of the THYME collaboration are mainly from the United States[1][2] and search for young exoplanets using data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS).

The new discoveries should help to understand the early evolution of exoplanets.

[3] As of March 2023 the collaboration produced 9 papers announcing the discovery of exoplanets.

Paper number 8 adapted the backronym to "Transit Hunt for Young and Maturing Exoplanets", because it used data from the Kepler space telescope.
