Abstract

We present the discovery from the TESS mission of two giant planets transiting M-dwarf stars: TOI 4201 b and TOI 5344 b. We also provide precise radial velocity measurements and updated system parameters for three other M dwarfs with transiting giant planets: TOI 519, TOI 3629, and TOI 3714. We measure planetary masses of 0.525 +/- 0.064 MJ, 0.243 +/- 0.020 M-J, 0.689 +/- 0.030 M-J, 2.57 +/- 0.15 M-J, and 0.412 +/- 0.040 M-J for TOI 519 b, TOI 3629 b, TOI 3714 b, TOI 4201 b, and TOI 5344 b, respectively. The corresponding stellar masses are 0.372 +/- 0.018 M-circle dot, 0.635 +/- 0.032 M-circle dot, 0.522 +/- 0.028 M-circle dot, 0.626 +/- 0.033 M-circle dot, and 0.612 +/- 0.034 M-circle dot. All five hosts have supersolar metallicities, providing further support for recent findings that, like for solar-type stars, close-in giant planets are preferentially found around metal-rich M-dwarf host stars. Finally, we describe a procedure for accounting for systematic errors in stellar evolution models when those models are included directly in fitting a transiting planet system.
