Stellar Spin-Orbit Alignment for Kepler-9, a Multi-transiting Planetary system with Two Outer Planets Near 2:1 Resonance
Songhu Wang, Brett Addison, Debra A. Fischer +4
We present spectroscopic measurements of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect for the planet b of Kepler-9 multi-transiting planet system. The resulting sky-projected spin-orbit angle is…
HATS-50b through HATS-53b: four transiting hot Jupiters orbiting G-type stars discovered by the HATSouth survey
Th. Henning, L. Mancini, P. Sarkis +26
We report the discovery of four close-in transiting exoplanets, HATS-50 through HATS-53, discovered using the HATSouth three-continent network of homogeneous and automated telescop…
Constraints on the Obliquities of Kepler Planet-Hosting Stars
Joshua N. Winn, Erik A. Petigura, Timothy D. Morton +8
Stars with hot Jupiters have obliquities ranging from 0-180 degrees, but relatively little is known about the obliquities of stars with smaller planets. Using data from the Califor…
Planet Candidates from K2 Campaigns 5-8 and Follow-Up Optical Spectroscopy
Erik A. Petigura, Ian J. M. Crossfield, Howard Isaacson +10
We present 151 planet candidates orbiting 141 stars from K2 campaigns 5-8 (C5-C8), identified through a systematic search of K2 photometry. In addition, we identify 16 targets as l…
Validation of small Kepler transiting planet candidates in or near the habitable zone
Guillermo Torres, Stephen R. Kane, Jason F. Rowe +16
A main goal of NASA's Kepler Mission is to establish the frequency of potentially habitable Earth-size planets (eta Earth). Relatively few such candidates identified by the mission…
K2-114b and K2-115b: Two Transiting Warm Jupiters
Avi Shporer, George Zhou, Benjamin J. Fulton +22
We report the first results from a search for transiting warm Jupiter exoplanets - gas giant planets receiving stellar irradiation below about erg s cm, equiva…
