The low density transiting exoplanet WASP-15b

R. G. West, D. R. Anderson, M. Gillon +20

We report the discovery of a low-density exoplanet transiting an 11th magnitude star in the Southern hemisphere. WASP-15b, which orbits its host star with a period P=3.7520656+-0.0…

Photometric and spectroscopic detection of the primary transit of the 111-day-period planet HD 80606 b

C. Moutou, G. Hebrard, F. Bouchy +19

We report the detection of the primary transit of the extra-solar planet HD 80606 b, thanks to photometric and spectroscopic observations performed at Observatoire de Haute-Provenc…

The HARPS search for southern extra-solar planets. XVII. Super-Earth and Neptune-mass planets in multiple planet systems HD47186 and HD181433

F. Bouchy, M. Mayor, C. Lovis +8

This paper reports on the detection of two new multiple planet systems around solar-like stars HD47186 and HD181433. The first system includes a hot Neptune of 22.78 M_Earth at 4.0…

Stellar activity of planetary host star HD 189733

I. Boisse, C. Moutou, A. Vidal-Madjar +20

Extra-solar planet search programs require high-precision velocity measurements. They need to study how to disentangle radial-velocity variations due to Doppler motion from the noi…

The HARPS search for southern extra-solar planets: XIV. Gl 176b, a super-Earth rather than a Neptune, and at a different period

T. Forveille, X. Bonfils, X. Delfosse +10

A 10.24 days Neptune-mass planet was recently announced to orbit the nearby M2 dwarf Gl 176, based on 28 radial velocities measured with the HRS spectrograph on the Hobby-Heberly T…
