TOI-6324 b: An Earth-mass Ultra-short-period Planet Transiting a Nearby M Dwarf

We report the confirmation of TOI-6324 b, an Earth-sized (1.059 ± 0.041 R _⊕ ) ultra-short-period (USP) planet orbiting a nearby (∼20 pc) M dwarf. Using the newly commissioned Keck Planet Finder spectrograph, we have measured the mass of TOI-6324 b 1.17 ± 0.22 M _⊕ . Because of its extremely short o...
