Characterizing the Cool KOIs. VII. Refined Physical Properties of the Transiting Brown Dwarf LHS 6343 C
Benjamin T. Montet, John Asher Johnson, Philip S. Muirhead +8
We present an updated analysis of LHS 6343, a triple system in the Kepler field which consists of a brown dwarf transiting one member of a widely-separated M+M binary system. By an…
Characterizing K2 Planet Discoveries: A super-Earth transiting the bright K-dwarf HIP 116454
Andrew Vanderburg, Benjamin T. Montet, John Asher Johnson +43
We report the first planet discovery from the two-wheeled Kepler (K2) mission: HIP 116454 b. The host star HIP 116454 is a bright (V = 10.1, K = 8.0) K1-dwarf with high proper moti…
Multiplicity of the Galactic Senior Citizens: A high-resolution search for cool subdwarf companions
Carl Ziegler, Nicholas M. Law, Christoph Baranec +2
Cool subdwarfs are the oldest members of the low mass stellar population. Mostly present in the galactic halo, subdwarfs are characterized by their low metallicity. Measuring their…
A survey of the high order multiplicity of nearby solar-type binary stars with Robo-AO
Reed L. Riddle, Andrei Tokovinin, Brian D. Mason +12
We conducted a survey of nearby binary systems composed of main sequence stars of spectral types F and G in order to improve our understanding of the hierarchical nature of multipl…
Miniature Exoplanet Radial Velocity Array (MINERVA) I. Design, Commissioning, and First Science Results
Jonathan J. Swift, Michael Bottom, John A. Johnson +26
The MINiature Exoplanet Radial Velocity Array (MINERVA) is a US-based observational facility dedicated to the discovery and characterization of exoplanets around a nearby sample of…
The Near-Ultraviolet Luminosity Function of Young, Early M-Type Dwarf Stars
Megan Ansdell, Eric Gaidos, Andrew W. Mann +8
Planets orbiting within the close-in habitable zones of M dwarf stars will be exposed to elevated high-energy radiation driven by strong magneto-hydrodynamic dynamos during stellar…
