ACCESS I: An Optical Transmission Spectrum of GJ 1214b Reveals a Heterogeneous Stellar Photosphere

Benjamin Rackham, Néstor Espinoza, Dániel Apai +8

GJ 1214b is the most studied sub-Neptune exoplanet to date. Recent measurements have shown its near-infrared transmission spectrum to be flat, pointing to a high-altitude opacity s…

K2-113b: A dense hot-Jupiter transiting a solar analogue

Néstor Espinoza, Markus Rabus, Rafael Brahm +8

We present the discovery of K2-113b, a dense hot-Jupiter discovered using photometry from Campaign 8 of the Kepler-2 (K2) mission and high-resolution spectroscopic follow up obtain…

A machine learned classifier for RR Lyrae in the VVV survey

Felipe Elorrieta, Susana Eyheramendy, Andrés Jordán +10

Variable stars of RR Lyrae type are a prime tool to obtain distances to old stellar populations in the Milky Way, and one of the main aims of the Vista Variables in the Via Lactea…

The ACS Fornax Cluster Survey. XII. Diffuse Star Clusters in Early-type Galaxies

Yiqing Liu, Eric W. Peng, Sungsoon Lim +5

Diffuse star clusters (DSCs) are old and dynamically hot stellar systems that have lower surface brightness and more extended morphology than globular clusters (GCs). Using the ima…

197 Candidates and 104 Validated Planets in K2's First Five Fields

Ian J. M. Crossfield, David R. Ciardi, Erik A. Petigura +41

We present 197 planet candidates discovered using data from the first year of the NASA K2 mission (Campaigns 0-4), along with the results of an intensive program of photometric ana…
