A rocky planet transiting a nearby low-mass star

Zachory K. Berta-Thompson, Jonathan Irwin, David Charbonneau +18

M-dwarf stars -- hydrogen-burning stars that are smaller than 60 per cent of the size of the Sun -- are the most common class of star in our Galaxy and outnumber Sun-like stars by…

Characterization of the K2-19 Multiple-Transiting Planetary System via High-Dispersion Spectroscopy, AO Imaging, and Transit Timing Variations

Norio Narita, Teruyuki Hirano, Akihiko Fukui +16

K2-19 (EPIC201505350) is an interesting planetary system in which two transiting planets with radii ~ 7 (inner planet b) and ~ 4 (outer planet c) have orbit…

Hot Jupiters with relatives: discovery of additional planets in orbit around WASP-41 and WASP-47

M. Neveu-VanMalle, D. Queloz, D. R. Anderson +14

We report the discovery of two additional planetary companions to WASP-41 and WASP-47. WASP-41 c is a planet of minimum mass 3.18 0.20 M and eccentricity 0.29 $\p…

Tests of the planetary hypothesis for PTFO 8-8695b

Liang Yu, Joshua N. Winn, Michaël Gillon +16

The T Tauri star PTFO 8-8695 exhibits periodic fading events that have been interpreted as the transits of a giant planet on a precessing orbit. Here we present three tests of the…

WASP-120b, WASP-122b and WASP-123b: Three newly discovered planets from the WASP-South survey

O. D. Turner, D. R. Anderson, A. Collier Cameron +15

We present the discovery by the WASP-South survey of three planets transiting moderately bright stars (V ~ 11). WASP-120b is a massive (5.0MJup) planet in a 3.6-day orbit that we f…

WASP-121 b: a hot Jupiter in a polar orbit and close to tidal disruption

L. Delrez, A. Santerne, J. -M. Almenara +19

We present the discovery by the WASP-South survey, in close collaboration with the Euler and TRAPPIST telescopes, of WASP-121 b, a new remarkable short-period transiting hot Jupite…
