A Multi-Year Search For Transits Of Proxima Centauri. I: Light Curves Corresponding To Published Ephemerides
David L. Blank, Dax Feliz, Karen A. Collins +14
Proxima Centauri has become the subject of intense study since the radial-velocity discovery by Anglada-Escudé et al. 2016 of a planet orbiting this nearby M-dwarf every ~ 11.2 day…
A Low-Mass Exoplanet Candidate Detected By Transiting the Praesepe M Dwarf JS 183
Joshua Pepper, Ed Gillen, Hannu Parviainen +11
We report the discovery of a repeating photometric signal from a low-mass member of the Praesepe open cluster that we interpret as a Neptune-sized transiting planet. The star is JS…
Radio Observations of HD 80606 Near Planetary Periastron
T. J. W. Lazio, P. D. Shankland, W. M. Farrell +1
This paper reports Very Large Array observations at 325 and 1425 MHz (90cm and 20cm) during and near the periastron passage of HD 80606b on 2007 November 20. We obtain flux density…
Characteristics of Kepler Planetary Candidates Based on the First Data Set: The Majority are Found to be Neptune-Size and Smaller
William J. Borucki
In the spring of 2009, the Kepler Mission commenced high-precision photometry on nearly 156,000 stars to determine the frequency and characteristics of small exoplanets, conduct a…
Discovery and Rossiter-McLaughlin Effect of Exoplanet Kepler-8b
Jon M. Jenkins, William J. Borucki, David G. Koch +50
We report the discovery and the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect of Kepler-8b, a transiting planet identified by the NASA Kepler Mission. Kepler photometry and Keck-HIRES radial velociti…
Kepler-7b: A Transiting Planet with Unusually Low Density
David W. Latham, William J. Borucki, David G. Koch +18
We report the discovery and confirmation of Kepler-7b, a transiting planet with unusually low density. The mass is less than half that of Jupiter, Mp = 0.43 Mj, but the radius is f…
