HD 91669b: A New Brown Dwarf Candidate from the McDonald Observatory Planet Search
Robert A. Wittenmyer, Michael Endl, William D. Cochran +4
We report the detection of a candidate brown dwarf orbiting the metal-rich K dwarf HD 91669, based on radial-velocity data from the McDonald Observatory Planet Search. HD 91669b is…
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…
Oscillations in Procyon A: First results from a multi-site campaign
S. Hekker, T. Arentoft, H. Kjeldsen +45
Procyon A is a bright F5IV star in a binary system. Although the distance, mass and angular diameter of this star are all known with high precision, the exact evolutionary state is…
An m sin i = 24 Earth Mass Planetary Companion To The Nearby M Dwarf GJ 176
Michael Endl, William D. Cochran, Robert A. Wittenmyer +1
We report the detection of a planetary companion with a minimum mass of m sin i = 0.0771 M_Jup = 24.5 M_Earth to the nearby (d = 9.4 pc) M2.5V star GJ 176. The star was observed as…
Dynamical and Observational Constraints on Additional Planets in Highly Eccentric Planetary Systems
Robert A. Wittenmyer, Michael Endl, William D. Cochran +1
Long time coverage and high radial velocity precision have allowed for the discovery of additional objects in known planetary systems. Many of the extrasolar planets detected have…
A Planetary System Around HD 155358: The Lowest Metallicity Planet Host Star
William D. Cochran, Michael Endl, Robert A. Wittenmyer +1
We report the detection of two planetary mass companions to the solar-type star HD 155358. The two planets have orbital periods of 195.0 and 530.3 days, with eccentricities of 0.11…
