The PLATO Science Calibration and Validation Plan: Targets for the First Long-pointing Field
Konstanze Zwintz, Conny Aerts, Andrew Tkachenko +56
In order to meet the science goals of the PLATO space mission, an extensive science calibration and validation plan has been designed. This paper describes this plan, as well as th…
PLATO input catalogs for technical calibration and fine guidance
René Heller, Chen Jiang, Paz Bluhm +18
A few weeks after launch, the PLATO spacecraft is expected to start its payload commissioning, which will be completed within the first three months of the mission. This phase incl…
The PLATO Mission
Heike Rauer, Conny Aerts, Juan Cabrera +842
PLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) is ESA's M3 mission designed to detect and characterise extrasolar planets and perform asteroseismic monitoring of a large numb…
Influence of stellar structure, evolution and rotation on the tidal damping of exoplanetary spin-orbit angles
Cilia Damiani, Stéphane Mathis
It is debated whether close-in giant planets can form in-situ and if not, which mechanisms are responsible for their migration. One of the observable tests for migration theories i…
Characterization of the four new transiting planets KOI-188b, KOI-195b, KOI-192b, and KOI-830b
G. Hebrard, A. Santerne, G. Montagnier +10
The characterization of four new transiting extrasolar planets is presented here. KOI-188b and KOI-195b are bloated hot Saturns, with orbital periods of 3.8 and 3.2 days, and masse…
SOPHIE velocimetry of Kepler transit candidates XII. KOI-1257 b: a highly eccentric three-month period transiting exoplanet
A. Santerne, G. Hébrard, M. Deleuil +36
In this paper we report a new transiting warm giant planet: KOI-1257 b. It was first detected in photometry as a planet-candidate by the space telescope and then val…
SOPHIE velocimetry of Kepler transit candidates: X KOI-142c: first radial velocity confirmation of a non-transiting exoplanet discovered by transit timing
S. C. C. Barros, R. F. Diaz, A. Santerne +9
The exoplanet KOI-142b (Kepler-88b) shows transit timing variations (TTVs) with a semi-amplitude of hours, earning the nickname of "king of transit variations". Only th…
