Light-curve analysis of KOI 2700b: the second extrasolar planet with a comet-like tail
Z. Garai
The Kepler object KOI 2700b (KIC 8639908b) was discovered recently as the second exoplanet with a comet-like tail. It exhibits a distinctly asymmetric transit profile, likely indic…
Variable dynamics in the inner disk of HD 135344B revealed with multi-epoch scattered light imaging
Tomas Stolker, Mike Sitko, Bernard Lazareff +12
We present multi-epoch VLT/SPHERE observations of the protoplanetary disk around HD 135344B (SAO 206462). The -band scattered light imagery reveal, with high spatial resolution…
Transmission spectroscopy of the hot Jupiter TrES-3 b: Disproof of an overly large Rayleigh-like feature
F. Mackebrandt, M. Mallonn, J. M. Ohlert +9
Context. Transit events of extrasolar planets offer the opportunity to study the composition of their atmospheres. Previous work on transmission spectroscopy of the close-in gas gi…
OSSOS VI. Striking Biases in the detection of large semimajor axis Trans-Neptunian Objects
Cory Shankman, JJ Kavelaars, Michele Bannister +9
The accumulating, but small, set of large semi-major axis trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) shows an apparent clustering in the orientations of their orbits. This clustering must eith…
Color variations of Comet C/2013 UQ4 (Catalina)
Oleksandra Ivanova, Evgenij Zubko, Gorden Videen +7
We report observations of color in the inner coma of Comet C/2013 UQ4 (Catalina) with the broadband B and R filters. We find significant temporal variations of the color slope, ran…
The 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko observation campaign in support of the Rosetta mission
C. Snodgrass, M. F. A'Hearn, F. Aceituno +112
We present a summary of the campaign of remote observations that supported the European Space Agency's Rosetta mission. Telescopes across the globe (and in space) followed comet 67…
Discovery of a new branch of the Taurid meteoroid stream as a real source of potentially hazardous bodies
P. Spurný, J. Borovička, H. Mucke +1
Taurid meteor shower produces prolonged but usually low activity every October and November. In some years, however, the activity is significantly enhanced. Previous studies based…
Meteoroid Orbits from Video Meteors. The Case of the Geminid Stream
Maria Hajdukova, Pavel Koten, Leonard Kornos +1
We use the Slovak and Czech video meteor observations, as well as video meteoroid orbits collected in the CAMS, SonotaCo, EDMOND and DMS catalogues, for an analysis of the distribu…
OSSOS: V. Diffusion in the orbit of a high-perihelion distant Solar System object
Michele T. Bannister, Cory Shankman, Kathryn Volk +12
We report the discovery of the minor planet 2013 SY, on an exceptionally distant, highly eccentric orbit. With a perihelion of 50.0 au, 2013 SY's orbit has a semi-maj…
The January 7, 2015, superbolide over Romania and structural diversity of meter-sized asteroids
Jiří Borovička, Pavel Spurný, Valentin I. Grigore +1
Superbolides, i.e. extremely bright meteors produced by entries of meter-sized bodies into terrestrial atmosphere, are rare events. We present here detailed analysis of a superboli…
Computation of the transmitted and polarized scattered fluxes by the exoplanet HD 189733b in X-rays
F. Marin, N. Grosso
Thousands of exoplanets have been detected, but only one exoplanetary transit was potentially observed in X-rays from HD189733A. What makes the detection of exoplanets so difficult…
