GTC OSIRIS transiting exoplanet atmospheric survey: detection of sodium in XO-2b from differential long-slit spectroscopy

D. K. Sing, C. M. Huitson, M. Lopez-Morales +8

We present two transits of the hot-Jupiter exoplanet XO-2b using the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC). The time series observations were performed using long-slit spectroscopy of XO-…

Stellar Diameters and Temperatures II. Main Sequence K & M Stars

Tabetha S. Boyajian, Kaspar von Braun, Gerard van Belle +21

We present interferometric diameter measurements of 21 K- and M- dwarfs made with the CHARA Array. This sample is enhanced by literature radii measurements to form a data set of 33…

Weighing The Non-Transiting Hot Jupiter Tau BOO b

Florian Rodler, Mercedes Lopez-Morales, Ignasi Ribas

We report the detection of the orbital velocity of non-transiting hot Jupiter Tau Boo b. By employing high-resolution ground-based spectroscopy around 2.3 μm during one half night,…

Detection of Weak Circumstellar Gas around the DAZ White Dwarf WD 1124-293: Evidence for the Accretion of Multiple Asteroids

J. H. Debes, M. Kilic, F. Faedi +5

Single metal polluted white dwarfs with no dusty disks are believed to be actively accreting metals from a circumstellar disk of gas caused by the destruction of asteroids perturbe…

Modeling Multi-Wavelength Stellar Astrometry. III. Determination of the Absolute Masses of Exoplanets and Their Host Stars

Jeffrey L. Coughlin, Mercedes Lopez-Morales

Astrometric measurements of stellar systems are becoming significantly more precise and common, with many ground and space-based instruments and missions approaching 1 microarcseco…

The GJ 436 System: Directly Determined Astrophysical Parameters of an M-Dwarf and Implications for the Transiting Hot Neptune

Kaspar von Braun, Tabetha S. Boyajian, Stephen R. Kane +15

The late-type dwarf GJ 436 is known to host a transiting Neptune-mass planet in a 2.6-day orbit. We present results of our interferometric measurements to directly determine the st…
