Planet Hunters. VIII. Characterization of 41 Long-Period Exoplanet Candidates from Kepler Archival Data

Ji Wang, Debra A. Fischer, Thomas Barclay +30

The census of exoplanets is incomplete for orbital distances larger than 1 AU. Here, we present 41 long-period planet candidates in 38 systems identified by Planet Hunters based on…

Eleven Multi-planet Systems from K2 Campaigns 1 & 2 and the Masses of Two Hot Super-Earths

Evan Sinukoff, Andrew W. Howard, Erik A. Petigura +14

We present a catalog of 11 multi-planet systems from Campaigns 1 and 2 of the K2 mission. We report the sizes and orbits of 26 planets split between seven 2-planet systems and four…

KELT-10b: The First Transiting Exoplanet from the KELT-South Survey -- A Hot Sub-Jupiter Transiting a V = 10.7 Early G-Star

Rudolf B. Kuhn, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Karen A. Collins +30

We report the discovery of KELT-10b, the first transiting exoplanet discovered using the KELT-South telescope. KELT-10b is a highly inflated sub-Jupiter mass planet transiting a re…

Pluto's atmosphere from stellar occultations in 2012 and 2013

A. Dias-Oliveira, B. Sicardy, E. Lellouch +42

We analyze two multi-chord stellar occultations by Pluto observed on July 18th, 2012 and May 4th, 2013, and monitored respectively from five and six sites. They provide a total of…

Planets Around Low-Mass Stars (PALMS). V. Age-Dating Low-Mass Companions to Members and Interlopers of Young Moving Groups

Brendan P. Bowler, Evgenya L. Shkolnik, Michael C. Liu +22

We present optical and near-infrared adaptive optics (AO) imaging and spectroscopy of 13 ultracool (>M6) companions to late-type stars (K7-M4.5), most of which have recently been i…

KELT-8b: A highly inflated transiting hot Jupiter and a new technique for extracting high-precision radial velocities from noisy spectra

Benjamin J. Fulton, Karen A. Collins, B. Scott Gaudi +29

We announce the discovery of a highly inflated transiting hot Jupiter discovered by the KELT-North survey. A global analysis including constraints from isochrones indicates that th…

Large Impacts around a Solar Analog Star in the Era of Terrestrial Planet Formation

Huan Y. A. Meng, Kate Y. L. Su, George H. Rieke +6

The final assembly of terrestrial planets occurs via massive collisions, which can launch copious clouds of dust that are warmed by the star and glow in the infrared. We report the…

Planetary Collisions outside the Solar System: Time Domain Characterization of Extreme Debris Disks

Huan Y. A. Meng, Kate Y. L. Su, George H. Rieke +9

Luminous debris disks of warm dust in the terrestrial planet zones around solar-like stars are recently found to vary, indicative of ongoing large-scale collisions of rocky objects…

KOI-3158: The oldest known system of terrestrial-size planets

T. L. Campante, T. Barclay, J. J. Swift +38

The first discoveries of exoplanets around Sun-like stars have fueled efforts to find ever smaller worlds evocative of Earth and other terrestrial planets in the Solar System. Whil…

An ancient extrasolar system with five sub-Earth-size planets

T. L. Campante, T. Barclay, J. J. Swift +38

The chemical composition of stars hosting small exoplanets (with radii less than four Earth radii) appears to be more diverse than that of gas-giant hosts, which tend to be metal-r…
