Evolution from protoplanetary to debris discs: The transition disc around HD 166191

G. M. Kennedy, S. J. Murphy, C. M. Lisse +12

HD 166191 has been identified by several studies as hosting a rare and extremely bright warm debris disc with an additional outer cool disc component. However, an alternative inter…

The Kappa Andromedae System: New Constraints on the Companion Mass, System Age & Further Multiplicity

Sasha Hinkley, Laurent Pueyo, Jacqueline K. Faherty +29

Kappa Andromedae is a B9IVn star at 52 pc for which a faint substellar companion separated by 55 AU was recently announced. In this work, we present the first spectrum of the compa…

A dynamically-packed planetary system around GJ667C with three super-Earths in its habitable zone

Guillem Anglada-Escudé, Mikko Tuomi, Enrico Gerlach +8

Since low-mass stars have low luminosities, orbits at which liquid water can exist on Earth-sized planets are relatively close-in, which produces Doppler signals that are detectabl…

Ground-based detection of Calcium and possibly Scandium and Hydrogen in the atmosphere of HD 209458b

N. Astudillo-Defru, P. Rojo

Context: Since the first exoplanetary atmosphere detection using the Hubble Space Telescope, characterization of exoplanet atmospheres from the ground have been playing an increasi…

Study of the impact of the post-MS evolution of the host star on the orbits of close-in planets. II. A giant planet in a close-in orbit around the RGB star HIP63242

M. I. Jones, J. S. Jenkins, P. Rojo +2

Context: More than 40 planets have been found around giant stars, revealing a lack of systems orbiting interior to 0.6 AU. This observational fact contrasts with the planeta…

The Peculiar Photometric Properties of 2010 WG9: A Slowly-Rotating Trans-Neptunian Object from the Oort Cloud

David Rabinowitz, Megan E. Schwamb, Elena Hadjiyska +2

We present long-term BVRI observations of 2010 WG9, an ~100-km diameter trans-Neptunian object (TNO) with an extremely high inclination of 70 deg discovered by the La Silla - QUEST…
