Modeling Kepler transit light curves as false positives: Rejection of blend scenarios for Kepler-9, and validation of Kepler-9d, a super-Earth-size planet in a multiple system
Guillermo Torres, François Fressin, Natalie M. Batalha +26
Light curves from the Kepler Mission contain valuable information on the nature of the phenomena producing the transit-like signals. To assist in exploring the possibility that the…
Properties of the Distant Kuiper Belt: Results from the Palomar Distant Solar System Survey
Megan E. Schwamb, Michael E. Brown, David L. Rabinowitz +1
We present the results of a wide-field survey using the 1.2-m Samuel Oschin Telescope at Palomar Observatory. This survey was designed to find the most distant members of the Kuipe…
The Value of Systems with Multiple Transiting Planets
Darin Ragozzine, Matthew J. Holman
Among other things, studies of the formation and evolution of planetary systems currently draw on two important observational resources: the precise characterization available for…
Five Kepler target stars that show multiple transiting exoplanet candidates
Jason H. Steffen, Natalie M. Batalha, William J. Borucki +27
We present and discuss five candidate exoplanetary systems identified with the Kepler spacecraft. These five systems show transits from multiple exoplanet candidates. Should these…
On the Orbit of Exoplanet WASP-12b
Christopher J. Campo, Joseph Harrington, Ryan A. Hardy +17
We observed two secondary eclipses of the exoplanet WASP-12b using the Infrared Array Camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope. The close proximity of WASP-12b to its G-type star resu…
Orbital properties of binary minor planets
Smadar Naoz, Hagai B. Perets, Darin Ragozzine
Many binary minor planets (BMPs; both binary asteroids and binary Trans-Neptunians objects; TNOs) are known to exist in the Solar system. The currently observed orbital and physica…
