Abstract
[en] Using the open-source tool SHERLOCK with TESS data, a search for promising new multi-planetary systems around M dwarfs has been performed. Among the 56 targets studied in this work, we found three promising candidates for which we performed an in-depth investigation. This led to the conclusion that those objects are likely real planet candidates, for which further observations are required to confirm this hypothesis.
