Abstract (from CDS):

We report the discovery of TOI-4507 b, a transiting sub-Saturn with a density <0.2 g cm–3 on a 105 days prograde orbit around a 700 Myr old F star. The transits were detected using data from TESS as well as the Antarctic telescope ASTEP. A joint analysis of the light curves and radial velocities from HARPS, FEROS, and CORALIE confirmed the planetary nature of the signal, by limiting the mass to be below 20 M⊕ at 95% confidence. The radial velocities also exhibit the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect and imply that the planet orbits the star in a prograde orbit with a sky-projected obliquity $\lambda =-{15}_{-44}^{+50}$° (∣λ∣ < 80° at 3σ). With these characteristics, TOI-4507 is one of the longest-period systems for which the stellar obliquity has been measured, and the planet is among the longest-period and youngest “superpuff” planets yet discovered.
