TESS Sector 62 observations include physical orbits 131 and 132 of the spacecraft around the Earth. Data collection was paused for a total of 0.63 days to download data. Data were downloaded approximately every seven days, once near apogee of each orbit and once near perigee. In total, there are 25.08 days of science data collected in Sector 62.

TESS Sector 61 observations include physical orbits 129 and 130 of the spacecraft around the Earth. Data collection was paused for a total of 0.63 days to download data. Data were downloaded approximately every seven days, once near apogee of each orbit and once near perigee. In total, there are 24.80 days of science data collected in Sector 61.

TESS Sector 59 observations include physical orbits 125 and 126 of the spacecraft around the Earth. Data collection was paused for a total of 0.63 days to download data. Data were downloaded approximately every seven days, once near apogee of each orbit and once near perigee. Note that the Sector 59 data were briefly made available on 2023 January 18–19 before an issue was identified that required reprocessing. Data have since been reprocessed. The reprocessing has a minimal impact on the final light curves, but resulted in a different set of TCEs than initially released. Users should re-download the data if retrieved before January 19th. In total, there are 25.79 days of science data collected in Sector 59.

TESS Sector 60 observations include physical orbits 127 and 128 of the spacecraft around the Earth. Data collection was paused for a total of 0.63 days to download data. Data were downloaded approximately every seven days, once near apogee of each orbit and once near perigee. At TJD 2949.99, the spacecraft entered into safe mode, resulting in instrument turn-off until TJD 2955.04. There are no FFIs, target pixel file data, or light curve data during this time. During these times (as well as when the spacecraft is transmitting data to ground systems) the data and timestamps in target-pixel files and light curve files are set to NULL. One FFI from Camera 1 in orbit 127 was corrupted prior to downlink from the spacecraft and could not be recovered. The FFIINDEX number is 00738895 (timestamp 2022358084201), and no FFI file for Camera 1 was produced for this cadence. In total, there are 20.01 days of science data collected in Sector 60.

TESS Sector 58 observations include physical orbits 123 and 124 of the spacecraft around the Earth. Data collection was paused for a total of 0.63 days to download data. Data were downloaded approximately every seven days, once near apogee of each orbit and once near perigee. In total, there are 27.09 days of science data collected in Sector 58.

These Data Release Notes provide information on the processing and export of data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). This data release is a combined, multi-sector transit search only. The underlying data products from individual observing sectors have been previously released. The data products included in this data release are the Data Validation (DV) reports, time series, and associated xml files for the threshold crossing events (TCEs) found by searching a combined data set including data from multiple observing sectors.

The data products included in this data release are the Data Validation (DV) reports, time series, and associated xml files for the threshold crossing events (TCEs) found by searching a combined data set including data from multiple observing sectors. These data products were generated by the TESS Science Processing Operations Center (SPOC, Jenkins et al., 2016) at NASA Ames Research Center from data collected by the TESS instrument, which is managed by the TESS Payload Operations Center (POC) at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The format and content of these data products are documented in the Science Data Products Description Document (SDPDD)1. The SPOC science algorithms are based heavily on those of the Kepler Mission science pipeline, and are described in the Kepler Data Processing Handbook (Jenkins, 2020)2. The Data Validation algorithms are documented in Twicken et al. (2018) and Li et al. (2019).

TESS Sector 31 observations include physical orbits 69 and 70 of the spacecraft around the Earth. Data collection was paused for 1.40 days between the orbits to download data. Astar tracker anomaly occurred at UTC 2020-11-16 10:37, which led to the instrument being turned off. As a result, the data collection period in orbit 70 ended 2.08 days earlier than scheduled; there is no other effect on the data. The cameras were turned on and returned to normal operations on 2020-11-20, at the beginning of Sector 32. In total, there are 24.03days of science data collected in Sector 31

TESS data release 30 (DR30) provides reprocessed data products of Sector 14 to 19. The updated data products were generated using version 4.0 of the science processing pipeline and conform to the final set of data anomaly flags defined over the last two years of TESS data analysis and pipeline development. Data release 33 (DR33) corresponds to a multisector search for transiting planets in the same reprocessed data. A detailed description of the changes in the data products in DR30 and DR33 is discussed in§2, and a brief list of changes is summarized here: The timestamps for 2 minute cadence and FFI data are more accurate. The differences between reprocessed data and previous data releases are less than 2.0 seconds in all cases. Photometric apertures were increased in size for targets with T mag<11. Three new Data Anomaly Flags were added to mitigate the effects of scattered light:–Cadences with strong scattered light signals or saturation effects that corrupt the calibration data are flagged and removed from analysis (bit 15, value 16384, “Bad Calibration Exclude”).–Scattered light data anomaly flags are customized for each target, and flagged automatically based on the local background level (bit 13, value 4096, ”Scattered light flag”).–Cadences with insufficient targets to derive cotrending basis vectors are flagged and the PDCSAP FLUX light curves are set to NULL at these times (bit 16, value 32768, “Insufficient Targets for Error Correction Exclude”). The planet search of the reprocessed light curves produced a different set of TCEs from the original processed data. Although there is a high degree of overlap between the original and reprocessed data (∼83% of targets produced TCEs in common), new TCEs were produced in DR30 and not every TCE from previous data releases was recovered. The same is true of the multisector search results from DR33 compared to DR28
