TOI-6038 A b: A Dense Sub-Saturn in the Transition Regime between the Neptunian Ridge and Savanna

We present the discovery and characterization of a sub-Saturn exoplanet, TOI-6038 A b, using the PARAS-2 spectrograph. The planet orbits a bright ( m _V  = 9.9), metal-rich late F-type star, TOI-6038 A, with T _eff  = 6110 ± 100 K, $\mathrm{log}\,g=4.11{8}_{-0.025}^{+0.015}$ , and $[{\rm{Fe/H}}]=0.1...
