Exo-zodi modelling for the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer
Grant M. Kennedy, Mark C. Wyatt, Vanessa Bailey +18
Habitable zone dust levels are a key unknown that must be understood to ensure the success of future space missions to image Earth analogues around nearby stars. Current detection…
Volatile-Rich Circumstellar Gas in the Unusual 49 Ceti Debris Disk
Aki Roberge, Barry Y. Welsh, Inga Kamp +2
We present Hubble Space Telescope STIS far-UV spectra of the edge-on disk around 49 Ceti, one of the very few debris disks showing sub-mm CO emission. Many atomic absorption lines…
HATS-6b: A Warm Saturn Transiting an Early M Dwarf Star, and a Set of Empirical Relations for Characterizing K and M Dwarf Planet Hosts
J. D. Hartman, D. Bayliss, R. Brahm +25
We report the discovery by the HATSouth survey of HATS-6b, an extrasolar planet transiting a V=15.2 mag, i=13.7 mag M1V star with a mass of 0.57 Msun and a radius of 0.57 Rsun. HAT…
An Enigmatic Pointlike Feature within the HD 169142 Transitional Disk
Beth A. Biller, Jared Males, Timothy Rodigas +13
We report the detection of a faint pointlike feature possibly related to ongoing planet-formation in the disk of the transition disk star HD 169142. The pointlike feature has a …
GJ 832c: A super-earth in the habitable zone
R. A. Wittenmyer, Mikko Tuomi, R. P. Butler +17
We report the detection of GJ 832c, a super-Earth orbiting near the inner edge of the habitable zone of GJ 832, an M dwarf previously known to host a Jupiter analog in a nearly-cir…
Two planets around Kapteyn's star : a cold and a temperate super-Earth orbiting the nearest halo red-dwarf
Guillem Anglada-Escudé, Pamela Arriagada, Mikko Tuomi +21
Exoplanets of a few Earth masses can be now detected around nearby low-mass stars using Doppler spectroscopy. In this paper, we investigate the radial velocity variations of Kaptey…
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite
George R. Ricker, Joshua N. Winn, Roland Vanderspek +55
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) will search for planets transiting bright and nearby stars. TESS has been selected by NASA for launch in 2017 as an Astrophysics Ex…
Magellan Adaptive Optics first-light observations of the exoplanet Pic b. I. Direct imaging in the far-red optical with MagAO+VisAO and in the near-IR with NICI
Jared R. Males, Laird M. Close, Katie M. Morzinski +20
We present the first ground-based CCD (m) image of an extrasolar planet. Using MagAO's VisAO camera we detected the extrasolar giant planet (EGP) Pictoris b in -short…
HATS-4b: A Dense Hot-Jupiter Transiting a Super Metal-Rich G Star
A. Jordán, R. Brahm, G. Á. Bakos +31
We report the discovery by the HATSouth survey of HATS-4b, an extrasolar planet transiting a V=13.46 mag G star. HATS-4b has a period of P = 2.5167 d, mass of Mp = 1.32 Mj, radius…
The Anglo-Australian Planet Search. XXIII. Two New Jupiter Analogs
Robert A. Wittenmyer, Jonathan Horner, C. G. Tinney +9
We report the discovery of two long-period giant planets from the Anglo-Australian Planet Search. HD 154857c is in a multiple-planet system, while HD 114613b appears to be solitary…
Masses, Radii, and Orbits of Small Kepler Planets: The Transition from Gaseous to Rocky Planets
Geoffrey W. Marcy, Howard Isaacson, Andrew W. Howard +100
We report on the masses, sizes, and orbits of the planets orbiting 22 Kepler stars. There are 49 planet candidates around these stars, including 42 detected through transits and 7…
Effect of core--mantle and tidal torques on Mercury's spin axis orientation
Stanton J. Peale, Jean-Luc Margot, Steven A Hauck +2
The rotational evolution of Mercury's mantle and its core under conservative and dissipative torques is important for understanding the planet's spin state. Dissipation results fro…
Does the Debris Disk around HD 32297 Contain Cometary Grains?
Timothy J. Rodigas, John H. Debes, Philip M. Hinz +13
We present an adaptive optics imaging detection of the HD 32297 debris disk at L' (3.8 \microns) obtained with the LBTI/LMIRcam infrared instrument at the LBT. The disk is detected…
HATS-5b: A Transiting hot-Saturn from the HATSouth Survey
G. Zhou, D. Bayliss, K. Penev +26
We report the discovery of HATS-5b, a transiting hot-Saturn orbiting a G type star, by the HAT-South survey. HATS-5b has a mass of Mp=0.24 Mj, radius of Rp=0.91 Rj, and transits it…
Discovery of H-alpha Emission from the Close Companion Inside the Gap of Transitional Disk HD142527
L. M. Close, K. B. Follette, J. R. Males +10
We utilized the new high-order 585 actuator Magellan Adaptive Optics system (MagAO) to obtain very high-resolution visible light images of HD142527 with MagAO's VisAO science camer…
