The Pan-Pacific Planet Search -- IX. A menagerie of companions orbiting evolved stars

Robert A. Wittenmyer, Alexander Venner, Tyler Fairnington +22

We present resolutions as to the nature of six speculative candidate companions proposed in the final data release of the Pan-Pacific Planet Search, a 6-year radial-velocity survey…

The GALAH Survey: Improving our understanding of confirmed and candidate planetary systems with large stellar surveys

Jake T. Clark, Duncan J. Wright, Robert A. Wittenmyer +24

Pioneering photometric, astrometric, and spectroscopic surveys are helping exoplanetary scientists better constrain the fundamental properties of stars within our galaxy, and the p…

Asteroseismology of iota Draconis and Discovery of an Additional Long-Period Companion

Michelle L. Hill, Stephen R. Kane, Tiago L. Campante +25

Giant stars as known exoplanet hosts are relatively rare due to the potential challenges in acquiring precision radial velocities and the small predicted transit depths. However, t…

K2-HERMES II. Planet-candidate properties from K2 Campaigns 1-13

Robert A. Wittenmyer, Jake T. Clark, Sanjib Sharma +22

Accurate and precise radius estimates of transiting exoplanets are critical for understanding their compositions and formation mechanisms. To know the planet, we must know the host…

Giant planet occurrence within 0.2 AU of low-luminosity red giant branch stars with K2

Samuel K. Grunblatt, Daniel Huber, Eric Gaidos +3

Every Sun-like star will eventually evolve into a red giant, a transition which can profoundly affect the evolution of a surrounding planetary system. The timescale of dynamical pl…

A Hot Saturn Orbiting An Oscillating Late Subgiant Discovered by TESS

Daniel Huber, William J. Chaplin, Ashley Chontos +139

We present the discovery of TOI-197.01, the first transiting planet identified by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) for which asteroseismology of the host star is po…
