Characterizing K2 Planet Discoveries: A super-Earth transiting the bright K-dwarf HIP 116454
Andrew Vanderburg, Benjamin T. Montet, John Asher Johnson +43
We report the first planet discovery from the two-wheeled Kepler (K2) mission: HIP 116454 b. The host star HIP 116454 is a bright (V = 10.1, K = 8.0) K1-dwarf with high proper moti…
An ALMA Disk Mass for the Candidate Protoplanetary Companion to FW Tau
Adam L. Kraus, Sean M. Andrews, Brendan P. Bowler +5
We present ALMA observations of the FW Tau system, a close binary pair of M5 stars with a wide-orbit (300 AU projected separation) substellar companion. The companion is extremely…
Planets Around Low-Mass Stars (PALMS). IV. The Outer Architecture of M Dwarf Planetary Systems
Brendan P. Bowler, Michael C. Liu, Evgenya L. Shkolnik +1
We present results from a high-contrast adaptive optics imaging search for giant planets and brown dwarfs (>1 MJup) around 122 newly identified nearby (<40 pc) young M dwarfs. Half…
WISE J072003.20-084651.2: An Old and Active M9.5 + T5 Spectral Binary 6 pc from the Sun
Adam J. Burgasser, Michael Gillon, Carl Melis +8
[Abridged] We report observations of the recently discovered, nearby late-M dwarf WISE J072003.20-084651.2. Astrometric measurements obtained with TRAPPIST improve the distance mea…
Wide, Cool and Ultracool Companions to Nearby Stars from Pan-STARRS1
Niall R. Deacon, Michael C. Liu, Eugene A. Magnier +18
We present the discovery of 61 wide (>5 arcsecond) separation, low-mass (stellar and substellar) companions to stars in the solar neighborhood identified from Pan-STARRS\,1 (PS1) d…
PULSE: The Palomar Ultraviolet Laser for the Study of Exoplanets
Christoph Baranec, Richard G. Dekany, Rick S. Burruss +8
The Palomar Ultraviolet Laser for the Study of Exoplanets (PULSE) will dramatically expand the science reach of PALM-3000, the facility high-contrast extreme adaptive optics system…
