Abstract (from CDS):

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission detected a companion orbiting TIC 71268730, categorized it as a planet candidate, and designated the system TOI-5375. Our follow-up analysis using radial-velocity data from the Habitable-zone Planet Finder, photometric data from Red Buttes Observatory, and speckle imaging with NN-EXPLORE Exoplanet Stellar Speckle Imager determined that the companion is a very low mass star near the hydrogen-burning mass limit with a mass of 0.080 ± 0.002M☉ (83.81 ± 2.10MJ), a radius of ${0.1114}_{-0.0050}^{+0.0048}{R}_{\odot }$ (1.0841${}_{0.0487}^{0.0467}{R}_{J}$), and brightness temperature of 2600 ± 70 K. This object orbits with a period of 1.721553 ± 0.000001 days around an early M dwarf star (0.62 ± 0.016M☉). TESS photometry shows regular variations in the host star's TESS light curve, which we interpreted as an activity-induced variation of ∼2%, and used this variability to measure the host star's stellar rotation period of ${1.9716}_{-0.0083}^{+0.0080}$ days. The TOI-5375 system provides tight constraints on stellar models of low-mass stars at the hydrogen-burning limit and adds to the population in this important region.
