TESS Data Release Notes:Reprocessing of Sectors 14–19, DR30 & DR33

TESS data release 30 (DR30) provides reprocessed data products of Sector 14 to 19. The updated data products were generated using version 4.0 of the science processing pipeline and conform to the final set of data anomaly flags defined over the last two years of TESS data analysis and pipeline development. Data release 33 (DR33) corresponds to a multisector search for transiting planets in the same reprocessed data. A detailed description of the changes in the data products in DR30 and DR33 is discussed in§2, and a brief list of changes is summarized here: The timestamps for 2 minute cadence and FFI data are more accurate. The differences between reprocessed data and previous data releases are less than 2.0 seconds in all cases. Photometric apertures were increased in size for targets with T mag<11. Three new Data Anomaly Flags were added to mitigate the effects of scattered light:–Cadences with strong scattered light signals or saturation effects that corrupt the calibration data are flagged and removed from analysis (bit 15, value 16384, “Bad Calibration Exclude”).–Scattered light data anomaly flags are customized for each target, and flagged automatically based on the local background level (bit 13, value 4096, ”Scattered light flag”).–Cadences with insufficient targets to derive cotrending basis vectors are flagged and the PDCSAP FLUX light curves are set to NULL at these times (bit 16, value 32768, “Insufficient Targets for Error Correction Exclude”). The planet search of the reprocessed light curves produced a different set of TCEs from the original processed data. Although there is a high degree of overlap between the original and reprocessed data (∼83% of targets produced TCEs in common), new TCEs were produced in DR30 and not every TCE from previous data releases was recovered. The same is true of the multisector search results from DR33 compared to DR28

TESS Eclipsing Binary Stars. I. Short-cadence Observations of 4584 Eclipsing Binaries in Sectors 1–26

In this paper we present a catalog of 4584 eclipsing binaries observed during the first two years (26 sectors) of the TESS survey. We discuss selection criteria for eclipsing binary candidates, detection of hitherto unknown eclipsing systems, determination of the ephemerides, the validation and triage process, and the derivation of heuristic estimates for the ephemerides. Instead of keeping to the widely used discrete classes, we propose a binary star morphology classification based on a dimensionality reduction algorithm. Finally, we present statistical properties of the sample, we qualitatively estimate completeness, and we discuss the results. The work presented here is organized and performed within the TESS Eclipsing Binary Working Group, an open group of professional and citizen scientists; we conclude by describing ongoing work and future goals for the group. The catalog is available from http://tessEBs.villanova.edu and from MAST.
