Nine new M dwarf planet candidates from TESS including five gas giants

We present the detection of nine new planet candidates orbiting M dwarfs, identified using an independent search and vetting pipeline applied to TESS Full-Frame Image data from Sectors 1 to 63. Our candidates include planets as small as 1.4 $\mathrm{ R}_{{\oplus }}$, with orbital periods up to 20 d. Among the nine new candidates, we identified five gas giants, which represent a rare and unexpected outcome of planet formation. Our findings add to the growing sample of giant planets around M dwarfs found by TESS. We discuss their follow-up potential for mass measurements through radial velocity observations and atmospheric characterization through transmission spectroscopy. We highlight TIC 12999193.01 as a particularly unique gas giant candidate in an eccentric orbit and excellent potential for atmospheric characterization.
