Abstract
We present the discovery of two new 10 day period giant planets from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite mission, whose masses were precisely determined using a wide diversity of ground-based facilities. TOI-481 b and TOI-892 b have similar radii (0.99 ± 0.01 ${R}_{{\rm{J}}}$ and 1.07 ± 0.02 ${R}_{{\rm{J}}}$, respectively), and orbital periods (10.3311 days and 10.6266 days, respectively), but significantly different masses (1.53 ± 0.03 ${M}_{{\rm{J}}}$ versus 0.95 ± 0.07 ${M}_{{\rm{J}}}$, respectively). Both planets orbit metal-rich stars ($[\mathrm{Fe}/{\rm{H}}]$ = $+0.26\pm 0.05$ dex and $[\mathrm{Fe}/{\rm{H}}]$ = $+0.24\pm 0.05$ for TOI-481 and TOI-892, respectively) but at different evolutionary stages. TOI-481 is a ${M}_{\star }$ = 1.14 ± 0.02 ${M}_{\odot }$, ${R}_{\star }$ = 1.66 ± 0.02 ${R}_{\odot }$ G-type star (${T}_{\mathrm{eff}}$ = $5735\pm 72$ K), that with an age of 6.7 Gyr, is in the turn-off point of the main sequence. TOI-892 on the other hand, is a F-type dwarf star (${T}_{\mathrm{eff}}$ = $6261\pm 80$ K), which has a mass of ${M}_{\star }$ = 1.28 ± 0.03 ${M}_{\odot }$ and a radius of ${R}_{\star }$ = 1.39 ± 0.02 ${R}_{\odot }$. TOI-481 b and TOI-892 b join the scarcely populated region of transiting gas giants with orbital periods longer than 10 days, which is important to constrain theories of the formation and structure of hot Jupiters.
