The Kappa Andromedae System: New Constraints on the Companion Mass, System Age & Further Multiplicity
Sasha Hinkley, Laurent Pueyo, Jacqueline K. Faherty +29
Kappa Andromedae is a B9IVn star at 52 pc for which a faint substellar companion separated by 55 AU was recently announced. In this work, we present the first spectrum of the compa…
New Uses for the Kepler Telescope: A Survey of the Ecliptic Plane For Transiting Planets and Star Formation
Charles Beichman, David Ciardi, Rachel Akeson +8
With the loss of two reaction wheels, the period of Kepler's ultra-high precision photometric performance is at an end. Yet Kepler retains unique capabilities impossible to replica…
Reconnaissance of the HR 8799 Exosolar System I: Near IR Spectroscopy
B. R. Oppenheimer, C. Baranec, C. Beichman +29
We obtained spectra, in the wavelength range λ= 995 - 1769 nm, of all four known planets orbiting the star HR 8799. Using the suite of instrumentation known as Project 1640 on the…
