Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission VI. CoRoT-Exo-3b: The first secure inhabitant of the brown-dwarf desert

M. Deleuil, H. J. Deeg, R. Alonso +2

Context. The CoRoT space mission routinely provides high-precision photometric measurements of thousands of stars that have been continuously observed for months. Aims. The discove…

A multi-site campaign to measure solar-like oscillations in Procyon. I. Observations, Data Reduction and Slow Variations

Torben Arentoft, Hans Kjeldsen, Timothy R. Bedding +45

We have carried out a multi-site campaign to measure oscillations in the F5 star Procyon A. We obtained high-precision velocity observations over more than three weeks with eleven…

Transiting exoplanets from the CoRoT space mission I - CoRoT-Exo-1b: a low-density short-period planet around a G0V star

P. Barge, A. Baglin, M. Auvergne +35

Context. The pioneer space mission for photometric planet searches, CoRoT, steadily monitors about 12,000 stars in each of its fields of view; it is able to detect transit candidat…

Testing planet formation theories with Giant stars

Luca Pasquini, M. P. Doellinger, A. Hatzes +4

Planet searches around evolved giant stars are bringing new insights to planet formation theories by virtue of the broader stellar mass range of the host stars compared to the sola…

Planets of young stars

E. W. Guenther, E. Esposito

Since the first massive planet in a short period orbit was discovered, the question arised how such an object could have formed. There are basically two formation scenarios: migrat…

The Extrasolar Planet epsilon Eridani b - Orbit and Mass

G. Fritz Benedict, Barbara E. McArthur, George Gatewood +11

Hubble Space Telescope observations of the nearby (3.22 pc), K2 V star epsilon Eridani have been combined with ground-based astrometric and radial velocity data to determine the ma…

Basic physical parameters of a selected sample of evolved stars

L. da Silva, L. Girardi, L. Pasquini +6

We present the detailed spectroscopic analysis of 72 evolved stars, including the [Fe/H] determination for the whole sample. These metallicities, together with the Teff values and…

Searching for Planets in the Hyades V: Limits on Planet Detection in the Presence of Stellar Activity

D. B. Paulson, W. D. Cochran, A. P. Hatzes

We present the results of a radial velocity survey of a sample of Hyades stars, and discuss the effects of stellar activity on radial velocity measurements. The level of radial vel…

Precise radial velocities of Proxima Centauri

M. Kürster, A. P. Hatzes, W. D. Cochran +3

We present differential radial velocity measurements of Proxima Centauri collected over 4 years with the ESO CES with a mean precision of . We find no evidence of a per…

Further evidence for the planet around 51 Pegasi

Artie P. Hatzes, William D. Cochran, Eric J. Bakker

The discovery of the planet around the solar-type star 51 Pegasi marked a watershed in the search for extrasolar planets. Since then seven other solar-type stars have been discover…

The Discovery of a Planetary Companion to 16 Cygni B

W. D. Cochran, A. P. Hatzes, R. P. Butler +1

High precision radial velocity observations of the solar-type star 16 Cygni B taken at McDonald Observatory and at Lick Observatory, have each independently discovered periodic rad…
