The Pan-Pacific Planet Search -- IX. A menagerie of companions orbiting evolved stars
Robert A. Wittenmyer, Alexander Venner, Tyler Fairnington +22
We present resolutions as to the nature of six speculative candidate companions proposed in the final data release of the Pan-Pacific Planet Search, a 6-year radial-velocity survey…
Finding Alien Worlds in Queensland -- A Decade of MINERVA-Australis
Jonathan Horner, Robert A. Wittenmyer, Stephen R. Kane +2
Three decades ago, humanity entered the Exoplanet Era, with the discovery of the first planets orbiting other stars. Today, more than 6000 exoplanets are known - a tally recently b…
Cool Jupiters greatly outnumber their toasty siblings: Occurrence rates from the Anglo-Australian Planet Search
Robert A. Wittenmyer, Songhu Wang, Jonathan Horner +8
Our understanding of planetary systems different to our own has grown dramatically in the past 30 years. However, our efforts to ascertain the degree to which the Solar system is a…
Detection of Planetary and Stellar Companions to Neighboring Stars via a Combination of Radial Velocity and Direct Imaging Techniques
Stephen R. Kane, Paul A. Dalba, Zhexing Li +13
The sensitivity of radial velocity (RV) surveys for exoplanet detection are extending to increasingly long orbital periods, where companions with periods of several years are now b…
Three planets orbiting Wolf 1061
D. J. Wright, R. A. Wittenmyer, C. G. Tinney +2
We use archival HARPS spectra to detect three planets orbiting the M3 dwarf Wolf1061 (GJ 628). We detect a 1.36 Mearth minimum-mass planet with an orbital period P = 4.888d (Wolf10…
Observing Strategies for the Detection of Jupiter Analogs
Robert A. Wittenmyer, J. Horner, R. P. Butler +6
To understand the frequency, and thus the formation and evolution, of planetary systems like our own solar system, it is critical to detect Jupiter-like planets in Jupiter-like orb…
