Zodiacal exoplanets in time (ZEIT) XII: A directly imaged planetary-mass companion to a young Taurus M dwarf star

We report the discovery of a resolved (0.9 arcsec) substellar companion to a member of the 1-5 Myr Taurus star-forming region. The host star (2M0437) is a single mid-M type (Teff ≈ 3100 K) dwarf with a position, space motion, and colour-magnitude that support Taurus membership, and possible affiliat...
