Properties of the 542 TESS planet candidate hosts observed by SOAR in this survey, presented as a binned histogram with an overplotted cumulative density function. For comparison, the properties of the 382 Kepler planet candidate hosts observed in Kraus et al. (2016) are also plotted. In general, the TESS planets are closer to the solar system, have slightly hotter hosts, orbit with shorter periods, and are larger than the Kepler planets targeted by the Kraus et al. (2016) survey.
