Doppler observations from Keck Observatory reveal the presence of a planet with M sin i M sin i of2.1 M Jup 2.1     M Jup orbiting the M3V star HIP 79431. This is the sixth giant planet to be detected in Doppler surveys of M dwarfs and it is one of the most massive planets discovered around an M dwarf star. The planet has an orbital period of 111.7 days and an orbital eccentricity of 0.29. The host star is metal rich, with an estimated[Fe/H] = +0.4 [ Fe / H ] = + 0.4 . This is the first planet to emerge from our new survey of 1600 M-to-K dwarf stars.

We report precise Doppler measurements of the nearby ( d = 10.34 pc d = 10.34     pc ) M dwarf Gl 649 that reveal the presence of a planet with a minimum mass M P  sin i = 0.328 M Jup M P sin i = 0.328     M Jup in an eccentric ( e = 0.30 e = 0.30 ), 598.3 day orbit. Our photometric monitoring reveals Gl 649 to be a new variable star with brightness changes on both rotational and decadal timescales. However, neither of these timescales are consistent with the 600 day Doppler signal and so provide strong support for planetary reflex motion as the best interpretation of the observed radial velocity variations. Gl 649b is only the seventh Doppler-detected giant planet around an M dwarf. The properties of the planet and host-star therefore contribute significant information to our knowledge of planet formation around low-mass stars. We revise and refine the occurrence rate of giant planets around M dwarfs based on the California Planet Survey sample of low-mass stars ( M ⋆ < 0.6 M ⊙ M ⋆ < 0.6     M ⊙ ). We find that f = 3.4 - 0.9 + 2.2 % of stars with M ⋆ < 0.6 M ⊙ M ⋆ < 0.6     M ⊙ harbor planets with M P  sin i > 0.3 M Jup M P sin i > 0.3     M Jup and a < 2.5 AU a < 2.5     AU . When we restrict our analysis to metal-rich stars with[Fe/H] > +0.2 [ Fe / H ] > + 0.2 , we find that the occurrence rate is 10.7 - 4.2 + 5.9 % .

We report that HD 110067, the recently announced host star of a resonant sextuplet of transiting sub-Neptunes, is not a single star as claimed in the discovery paper, but a wide hierarchical triple. The K0 V planet hosting star (V = 8.4 mag, d = 32 pc) has a companion at a wide projected separation of 13400 au. This companion, namely HD 110106, is a slightly fainter (V = 8.8 mag) K3 V type 8-year period double-lined spectroscopic binary. The secondary in this spectroscopic binary is contributing a significant amount of flux and has a measured high mass ratio.

We identify two ultra-cool (\\(T_\\mathrm{eff} < 4000\\) K) metal-polluted (DZ) white dwarfs WDJ2147\\(-\\)4035 and WDJ1922\\(+\\)0233 as the coolest and second coolest DZ stars known to date with \\(T_\\mathrm{eff} \\approx 3050\\) K and \\(T_\\mathrm{eff} \\approx 3340\\) K, respectively. Strong atmospheric collision-induced absorption (CIA) causes the suppression of red optical and infra-red flux in WDJ1922\\(+\\)0233, resulting in an unusually blue colour given its low temperature. WDJ2147\\(-\\)4035 has moderate infra-red CIA yet has the reddest optical colours known for a DZ white dwarf. Microphysics improvements to the non-ideal effects and CIA opacities in our model atmosphere code yields reasonable solutions to observations of these ultra-cool stars. WDJ2147\\(-\\)4035 has a cooling age of over 10 Gyr which is the largest known for a DZ white dwarf, whereas WDJ1922\\(+\\)0233 is slightly younger with a cooling age of 9 Gyr. Galactic kinematics calculations from precise Gaia EDR3 astrometry reveal these ultra-cool DZ stars as likely members of the Galactic disc thus they could be pivotal objects in future studies constraining an upper age limit for the disc of the Milky Way. We present intermediate-resolution spectroscopy for both objects, which provides the first spectroscopic observations of WDJ2147\\(-\\)4035. Detections of sodium and potassium are made in both white dwarfs, in addition to calcium in WDJ1922\\(+\\)0233 and lithium in WDJ2147\\(-\\)4035. We identify the magnetic nature of WDJ2147\\(-\\)4035 from Zeeman splitting in the lithium line and also make a tentative detection of carbon, so we classify this star as DZQH. WDJ1922\\(+\\)0233 likely accreted planetary crust debris, while the debris composition that polluted WDJ2147\\(-\\)4035 remains unconstrained.
