The perihelion activity of comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko as seen by robotic telescopes
Colin Snodgrass, Cyrielle Opitom, Miguel de Val-Borro +13
Around the time of its perihelion passage the observability of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko from Earth was limited to very short windows each morning from any given site, due to the l…
The Surface Roughness of (433) Eros as Measured by Thermal-Infrared Beaming
Ben Rozitis
In planetary science, surface roughness is regarded to be a measure of surface irregularity at small spatial scales, and causes the thermal-infrared beaming effect (i.e. re-radiati…
A terrestrial planet candidate in a temperate orbit around Proxima Centauri
Guillem Anglada-Escudé, Pedro J. Amado, John Barnes +28
At a distance of 1.295 parsecs, the red-dwarf Proxima Centauri ( Centauri C, GL 551, HIP 70890, or simply Proxima) is the Sun's closest stellar neighbor and one of the best stud…
The First Circumbinary Planet Found by Microlensing: OGLE-2007-BLG-349L(AB)c
D. P. Bennett, S. H. Rhie, A. Udalski +79
We present the analysis of the first circumbinary planet microlensing event, OGLE-2007-BLG-349. This event has a strong planetary signal that is best fit with a mass ratio of $q \a…
Changes in the physical environment of the inner coma of 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko with decreasing heliocentric distance
D. Bodewits, L. M. Lara, M. F. A'Hearn +43
The Wide Angle Camera of the OSIRIS instrument on board the Rosetta spacecraft is equipped with several narrowband filters that are centered on the emission lines and bands of vari…
The origin of the excess transit absorption in the HD 189733 system: planet or star?
J. R. Barnes, C. A. Haswell, D. Staab +1
We have detected excess absorption in the emission cores of Ca II H & K during transits of HD 189733b for the first time. Using observations of three transits we investigate the or…
