The Discovery of HD 37605c and a Dispositive Null Detection of Transits of HD 37605b
Sharon Xuesong Wang, Jason T. Wright, William Cochran +15
We report the radial-velocity discovery of a second planetary mass companion to the K0 V star HD 37605, which was already known to host an eccentric, P~55 days Jovian planet, HD 37…
Revisiting rho 1 Cancri e: A New Mass Determination Of The Transiting super-Earth
Michael Endl, Paul Robertson, William D. Cochran +6
We present a mass determination for the transiting super-Earth rho 1 Cancri e based on nearly 700 precise radial velocity (RV) measurements. This extensive RV data set consists of…
Kepler-47: A Transiting Circumbinary Multi-Planet System
Jerome A. Orosz, William F. Welsh, Joshua A. Carter +36
We report the detection of Kepler-47, a system consisting of two planets orbiting around an eclipsing pair of stars. The inner and outer planets have radii 3.0 and 4.6 times that o…
The Neptune-Sized Circumbinary Planet Kepler-38b
Jerome A. Orosz, William F. Welsh, Joshua A. Carter +28
We discuss the discovery and characterization of the circumbinary planet Kepler-38b. The stellar binary is single-lined, with a period of 18.8 days, and consists of a moderately ev…
Kepler-36: A Pair of Planets with Neighboring Orbits and Dissimilar Densities
Joshua A. Carter, Eric Agol, William J. Chaplin +43
In the Solar system the planets' compositions vary with orbital distance, with rocky planets in close orbits and lower-density gas giants in wider orbits. The detection of close-in…
A Second Giant Planet in 3:2 Mean-Motion Resonance in the HD 204313 System
Paul Robertson, J. Horner, Robert A. Wittenmyer +7
We present 8 years of high-precision radial velocity (RV) data for HD 204313 from the 2.7 m Harlan J. Smith Telescope at McDonald Observatory. The star is known to have a giant pla…
