Discovery of a stellar companion to the nearby solar-analogue HD 104304
Carolin Schnupp, Carolina Bergfors, Wolfgang Brandner +6
Sun-like stars are promising candidates to host exoplanets and are often included in exoplanet surveys by radial velocity (RV) and direct imaging. In this paper we report on the de…
Kepler Observations of Transiting Hot Compact Objects
Jason F. Rowe, William J. Borucki, David Koch +18
Kepler photometry has revealed two unusual transiting companions orbiting an early A-star and a late B-star. In both cases the occultation of the companion is deeper than the trans…
Deep exploration of Eridani with Keck Ms-band vortex coronagraphy and radial velocities: mass and orbital parameters of the giant exoplanet
Dimitri Mawet, Lea Hirsch, Eve J. Lee +27
We present the most sensitive direct imaging and radial velocity (RV) exploration of Eridani to date. Eridani is an adolescent planetary system, reminiscent of the early…
Radial Velocity Prospects Current and Future: A White Paper Report prepared by the Study Analysis Group 8 for the Exoplanet Program Analysis Group (ExoPAG)
Peter Plavchan, Dave Latham, Scott Gaudi +17
[Abridged] The Study Analysis Group 8 of the NASA Exoplanet Analysis Group was convened to assess the current capabilities and the future potential of the precise radial velocity (…
Astrometric Detection of Earthlike Planets
Michael Shao, Geoff Marcy, Joseph H. Catanzarite +12
Astrometry can detect rocky planets in a broad range of masses and orbital distances and measure their masses and three-dimensional orbital parameters, including eccentricity and i…
