The Lick-Carnegie Exoplanet Survey: HD32963 -- A New Jupiter Analog Orbiting a Sun-like Star

Dominick Rowan, Stefano Meschiari, Gregory Laughlin +10

We present a set of 109 new, high-precision Keck/HIRES radial velocity (RV) observations for the solar-type star HD 32963. Our dataset reveals a candidate planetary signal with a p…

A Six-Planet System Around the Star HD 34445

Steven S. Vogt, R. Paul Butler, Jennifer Burt +10

We present a new precision radial velocity dataset that reveals a multi-planet system orbiting the G0V star HD 34445. Our 18-year span consists of 333 precision radial velocity obs…

The LCES HIRES/Keck Precision Radial Velocity Exoplanet Survey

R. Paul Butler, Steven S. Vogt, Gregory Laughlin +8

We describe a 20-year survey carried out by the Lick-Carnegie Exoplanet Survey Team (LCES), using precision radial velocities from HIRES on the Keck-I telescope to find and charact…

APF - The Lick Observatory Automated Planet Finder

Steven S. Vogt, Matthew Radovan, Robert Kibrick +45

The Automated Planet Finder (APF) is a facility purpose-built for the discovery and characterization of extrasolar planets through high-cadence Doppler velocimetry of the reflex ba…

The capabilities and performance of the Automated Planet Finder Telescope with the implementation of a dynamic scheduler

Jennifer Burt, Bradford Holden, Russell Hanson +5

We report initial performance results emerging from 600 hours of observations with the Automated Planet Finder (APF) telescope and Levy Spectrometer located at UCO/Lick Observatory…

New Parallaxes for the Upper Scorpius OB Association

Jessica Donaldson, Alycia Weinberger, Jonathan Gagné +2

Upper Scorpius is a subgroup of the nearest OB association, Scorpius--Centaurus. Its young age makes it an important association to study star and planet formation. We present para…

A Six-Planet System Orbiting HD 219134

Steven S. Vogt, Jennifer Burt, Stefano Meschiari +10

We present new, high-precision Doppler radial velocity (RV) data sets for the nearby K3V star HD 219134. The data include 175 velocities obtained with the HIRES Spectrograph at the…
