The Occurrence Rate of Terrestrial Planets Orbiting Nearby Mid-to-late M Dwarfs from TESS Sectors 1–42

We present an analysis of a volume-complete sample of 363 mid-to-late M dwarfs within 15 pc of the Sun with masses between 0.1 and 0.3 M _⊙ observed by TESS within sectors 1–42. The median stellar mass of the sample is 0.17 M _⊙ . We search the TESS light curves for transiting planets with orbital p...
