What is the mass of alpha Cen B b?

Peter Plavchan, Xi Chen, Garrett Pohl

We investigate the possibility of constraining the sin i degeneracy of alpha Cen B b -- with orbital period P=3.24 d; a = 0.042 AU; msini = 1.1 M_earth -- to estimate the true mass…

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…

The discovery of differential radial rotation in the pulsating subdwarf B star KIC 3527751

H. M. Foster, M. D. Reed, J. H. Telting +2

We analyse three years of nearly-continuous Kepler spacecraft short cadence observations of the pulsating subdwarf B star KIC 3527751. We detect a total of 251 periodicities, most…
