A dearth of small particles in the transiting material around the white dwarf WD 1145+017
S. Xu, S. Rappaport, R. van Lieshout +35
White dwarf WD 1145+017 is orbited by several clouds of dust, possibly emanating from actively disintegrating bodies. These dust clouds reveal themselves through deep, broad, and e…
The Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS)
Peter J. Wheatley, Richard G. West, Michael R. Goad +43
We describe the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS), which is a ground-based project searching for transiting exoplanets orbiting bright stars. NGTS builds on the legacy of previ…
K2-114b and K2-115b: Two Transiting Warm Jupiters
Avi Shporer, George Zhou, Benjamin J. Fulton +22
We report the first results from a search for transiting warm Jupiter exoplanets - gas giant planets receiving stellar irradiation below about erg s cm, equiva…
Precise masses for the transiting planetary system HD 106315 with HARPS
S. C. C. Barros, H. Gosselin, J. Lillo-Box +45
The multi-planetary system HD 106315 was recently found in K2 data . The planets have periods of and days, and radii of a…
Asteroseismic masses of retired planet-hosting A-stars using SONG
D. Stello, D. Huber, F. Grundahl +9
To better understand how planets form, it is important to study planet occurrence rates as a function of stellar mass. However, estimating masses of field stars is often difficult.…
EPIC 228735255b - An eccentric 6.57 day transiting hot Jupiter in Virgo
H. A. C. Giles, D. Bayliss, N. Espinoza +25
We present the discovery of EPIC 228735255b, a P= 6.57 days Jupiter-mass (M=1.0190.070 M) planet transiting a V=12.5 (G5-spectral type) star in an eccentric orbit…
