Two Earth-sized planets orbiting Kepler-20
Francois Fressin, Guillermo Torres, Jason F. Rowe +33
Since the discovery of the first extrasolar giant planets around Sun-like stars, evolving observational capabilities have brought us closer to the detection of true Earth analogues…
2007 TY430: A Cold Classical Kuiper Belt Type Binary in the Plutino Population
Scott S. Sheppard, Darin Ragozzine, Chadwick Trujillo
(Abridged) 2007 TY430 is the first wide, equal-sized, binary known in the 3:2 mean motion resonance with Neptune. The binary has a maximum separation of 1 arcsec with less than 0.1…
Kepler 18-b, c, and d: A System Of Three Planets Confirmed by Transit Timing Variations, Lightcurve Validation, Spitzer Photometry and Radial Velocity Measurements
William D. Cochran, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Guillermo Torres +51
We report the detection of three transiting planets around a Sunlike star, which we designate Kepler-18. The transit signals were detected in photometric data from the Kepler satel…
Spin-Orbit Alignment for the Circumbinary Planet Host Kepler-16A
Joshua N. Winn, Simon Albrecht, John Asher Johnson +31
Kepler-16 is an eccentric low-mass eclipsing binary with a circumbinary transiting planet. Here we investigate the angular momentum of the primary star, based on Kepler photometry…
Kepler-16: A Transiting Circumbinary Planet
Laurance R. Doyle, Joshua A. Carter, Daniel C. Fabrycky +46
We report the detection of a planet whose orbit surrounds a pair of low-mass stars. Data from the Kepler spacecraft reveal transits of the planet across both stars, in addition to…
The architecture of the hierarchical triple star KOI 928 from eclipse timing variations seen in Kepler photometry
J. H. Steffen, S. N. Quinn, W. J. Borucki +25
We present a hierarchical triple star system (KIC 9140402) where a low mass eclipsing binary orbits a more massive third star. The orbital period of the binary (4.98829 Days) is de…
