New 2025 transit timing of HIP 41378 f shows a 7-hour early arrival consistent with TTVs; N-body modeling with TRADES refines ephemerides for planets d, e, and f.
TOI-4311 hosts a 0.99-day super-Earth (1.38 R_earth, 4.5 M_earth) and 15-day sub-Neptune (2.47 R_earth), plus a candidate 38-day planet, with the dense inner planet potentially challenging formation theories given the host's galactic population.
